Re: mirscreencast'ing an Ubuntu phone

 

as a workaround I hacked the following solution together:

on the phone I have a script:

#!/bin/sh

loops=60
start=0

echo PID: $$

while true; do
  mirscreencast -m /run/mir_socket --stdout --cap-interval 6 -s 270 480
-n 10 || break
  start=`expr $start + 1`
  test $start -eq $loops && break
  # printf .
done | gzip -c | nc 10.49.30.100 12345

the IP addr is the laptop where the data is read and presented with:

$ nc -l 12345 | gzip -dc |  mplayer -demuxer rawvideo -rawvideo fps=10:w=270:h=480:format=rgba -

the bottle-nack is the Wifi network and one must play around a bit with
the --cap-interval / fps values;
