To control your computer with your tablet you need to open the url http://<address of your computer>:<port set in the menu, default is 1701>, if possible Weylus will display to you the url you need to open and show a QR code with the encoded address. If you have a firewall running make sure to open a TCP port for the webserver (1701 by default) and the websocket connection (9001 by default). -

Scrcpy GUI
A simple & beautiful GUI application for scrcpy
Scrcpy was created by the team behind the popular Android emulator Genymotion, but it is not an Android emulator itself, it displays and controls Android devices connected via USB or TCP/IP, it does not require any root access. It works with GNU/Linux, Windows, and MacOS. Scrcpy works by running a server on your Android device, and the desktop application communicates using USB (or using ADB tunneling wireless). The server streams the H.264 video of the device screen. The client decodes the video frames and displays them. The client captures input (keyboard and mouse) events, sends them to the server, and the server injects them into the device. If you want to see your Android screen interact with the app or content on your desktop, record your phone screen or perform other basic tasks, then Scrcpy is a good choice. In short, Scrcpy is an excellent way to easily view your Android screen on your computer and interact with it in real time. -

screen2ipcam
Windows PC screen as an ONVIF/RTSP IP camera for NVR, DVR, VMS
Screen2ipcam turns a Windows PC screen into an ONVIF / RTSP IP camera. Your NVR, DVR or VMS discovers it like any network camera and records it next to your real cameras: POS terminals, kiosks, control rooms, monitoring stations. No capture card, no HDMI encoder, no cloud. Version 2.0.5 adds motion events over ONVIF so the recorder can record only when the screen changes and save disk space, an optional mouse pointer in the stream, sound (G.711), camera name and clock on the picture, easier activation, and built-in VPN / multiple-network support. 2.0.5 for Windows Server is a separate edition for servers, POS terminals and shared PCs: it keeps streaming on the logon screen after a reboot or log off, uses fixed ports (RTSP 554, ONVIF 18000, web panel 13030), follows Remote Desktop sessions and installs silently with a settings file. Windows 7 SP1 to 11 and Windows Server 2016 to 2025, 32/64-bit, no .NET. Free 14-day trial, one-time US$20 lifetime license per PC. https://magicweb.win -

Free, open-source Sidecar/Duet alternative
OpenDisplay is a free, open-source way to use an iPhone, iPad, or spare Mac as a true second monitor for a Mac.

Video is captured and hardware-encoded as low-latency H.264 before being streamed to the receiver. Connections can run over USB for minimal latency or Wi-Fi with Bonjour-based discovery. Retina and HiDPI output preserve sharp text, while touch gestures provide clicking, dragging, and scrolling from the receiving device. The display can rotate between portrait and landscape and rebuild at native resolution. A separate receiver app can also turn another Mac into a network or cable-connected display. -

Mirrorcast
Open Source Alternative to Chromecast, Mirror Desktop and Play media r
The idea is to replicate what Chromecast can do in regards to screen mirroring and streaming media to a remote display. Google chromes screen mirroring feature works well when used with a receiver such as Chromecast but this is a proprietary solution and audio does not work for desktop mirroring on some operating systems. At the moment, there is only a client for Debian/Ubuntu Operating systems and a server/receiver application for Raspberry pi. Mirrorcast aims to be a low latency screen mirroring solution with high-quality video and audio at 25-30fps, the later is why we will not use something like VNC. Mirrorcast uses up about the same amount of system resources as google chromes cast feature. The delay is less than 1 second on most networks. To achieve this we will use existing FOSS software such as ffmpeg, mpv, and omxplayer. -
