Oh sure, I just didn't want to reference every miracast project, I suppose it is worth throwing a link for miraclecast out there though, since that seems like one of the most popular. I believe the GNOME desktop environment also had an effort to support miracast standard.

I just wanted to point out that fcast seems to have done their own thing when there were some efforts already in play, which is totally fine. I was just surprised I didn't see an entry in their FAQ like "How is fcast different from X?".

Oh yeah. Did not bother to look for OSS implementations. But seemingly there must be a problem with miracast. Otherwise i could not explain the bad adoption.

Only thing i can say that there is a need for a widly available/supported open 'cast' server and client software out there.

Sunshine / moonlight is the future. Soon it will shed the last remains of its historical Nvidia roots.
