Any practical guides/info on how to achieve this setup without a dedicated research session?
- stragies 6y agoFor Linux, X11, USB-connection to Android-Device(s), and the TV over Network: - Make another screen - 3 options, depending on driver/available_outputs: 1: make a mode with `cvt`, add it with `xrandr --newmode`, bind it to unused output with `--addmode` 2: Use a dummy plug on a free output 3: Use `evdi` and the `example` application in evdipp to create a virtual screen, attach the provider with xrandr - Export the new screen, or a portion of it with `x11vnc`, using the `-clip` option with coordinates or screennumber. Optional: Use `NoVNC` to make VNC available to any HTML5 browser - use adb port forwarding commands to forward localhost:whatever1 on the Android device to connect to the X11VNC port. - Use ADB, or your finger to start VNC session on tablet to localhost:whatever1, and UPNP/whatever to start browser on TV for NoVNC url. That should cut down your research time ;) Be warned, Evdi&EvdiPP are currently still glitchy, but under active development. https://github.com/mlukaszek/evdipp https://github.com/mlukaszek/evdipp
