Techcrunch already fixed this error "Unlike other devices which are aiming to send the entire raw HDMI signal over the air, Rivvr uses its proprietary tech to compress the much smaller video feed from the PC, sending just about 40-80 mbps of video signal over the air." Other companies trying to transmit raw HDMI stream wirelessly using 60Ghz frequency. They trying to reinvent Wireless HDMI which is well known and have a lot of problems. We are using standard WiFi networks 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz.

I wonder how that should work. Less than 11ms per Frame compression time, let's say 9ms (as we need to Account for the way back too for latency) for a 2160 x 1200 stream + audio. And you can't see any compression and we're talking Close up here. Not possible with h264/h265.

This is from 2015. We're almost into 2017. - A 4k frame is 3.2 x as much data as the 2160x1200 frame. - In this case, compression was achieved at 60fps using H265. - The same spec of equipment should in principle be capable of achieving 60fps * 3.2 = 192fps. That's 5ms latency due to compression. - Add in the simplicity of many VR scenes - think RecRoom, Windlands... should be fairly easy to compress. - Audio can be compressed in parallel "Not possible"? I disagree, "more than possible two years ago"

    Let's look at some real live x265 benchmarks, because you skipped the part where they did it on a beefy dual socket server. Let's take: http://x265.ru/en/x265-hd-benchmark http://x265.ru/en/x265-hd-benchmark, that benchmark is 1080P, let's assume you're correct with your simplicity and it might be closer to reality. The fastest listed system there does a blazing 33fps (well that's a broadwell, the 2015 dual socket server is probably atleast the xeon equivalent of it). And we haven't even looked at the image quality/compression artifacts. I disagree with your assessment. Rivvr is apparently a spinoff of Sixa, the appropriate techcrunch article https://techcrunch.com/2016/12/09/sixa-secures-3-5m-as-it-launches-its-cloud-computer-for-developers/ https://techcrunch.com/2016/12/09/sixa-secures-3-5m-as-it-la... repeats the 11ms latency. Maybe it's the same technology? The comments to the techchrunch article do not sound convincing either.
