    Miracast is a standard not a implementation.

    I am following NymphCast since the beginning and while it is still promising but beta software at best with limited functionality, by choosing the language ‘AngleScript’ theyhavee shot themself in the foot to.get new devs onboard.

      Oh sure, I just didn’t want to reference every miracast project, I suppose it is worth throwing a link for miraclecast out there though, since that seems like one of the most popular. I believe the GNOME desktop environment also had an effort to support miracast standard.

      I just wanted to point out that fcast seems to have done their own thing when there were some efforts already in play, which is totally fine. I was just surprised I didn’t see an entry in their FAQ like “How is fcast different from X?”.

        Oh yeah. Did not bother to look for OSS implementations. But seemingly there must be a problem with miracast. Otherwise i could not explain the bad adoption.

        Only thing i can say that there is a need for a widly available/supported open ‘cast’ server and client software out there.

          Sunshine / moonlight is the future. Soon it will shed the last remains of its historical Nvidia roots.
