Has someone tried to clone an iPhone display on a non-apple TV, both connected to the same wifi network? I know some ios app can do this to display videos or photos on a TV. The cloning aspect is important, to be able to interact with a gui on the mobile device.
I see there’s a iosExternalDisplayExample but I don’t have a TV to test
I’m trying to figure out what is needed to do screen mirroring. It seems like with apple tv I need to imitate the functionality of iosExternalDisplayExample.
I wonder how many different TV’s and mirroring options there are, and how to cover enough cases. I’ve seen videos in youtube showing that you can broadcast to non-apple tv’s specific apps like youtube or your photo gallery, but apparently there are multiple approaches.
I’ll post an update if I try the samsung approach. Any info about this topic is welcome
yeah i think airbeam would be the equivalent of using a 3rd party library to broadcast to alternative devices. I think video may be treated differently via airplay (as opposed to content). I think apps like Youtube just send the video URL for the Apple TV to play
