QtScrcpy

中文用户？点我查看中文介绍

QtScrcpy supports displaying and controlling Android devices via USB or over network. It does NOT require root privileges.

It supports three major platforms: GNU/Linux, Windows and macOS.

It focuses on:

lightness (displays only the device screen)
performance (30~60 fps)
quality (1920×1080 or above)
low latency (35~70ms)
low startup time (only about 1 second to display the first frame)
non-intrusiveness (nothing will be installed on the device)

Mapping Keys

You can write your script to map keyboard and mouse actions to touches and clicks of the mobile phone according to your needs. Here are the script writing rules.

Script for TikTok and some other games are provided by default. Once enabled, you can play the game with your keyboard and mouse. The default key mapping for PUBG Mobile is as follows:

Here is a video demonstration playing PUBG Mobile.

Instruction for adding new customized mapping files.

Write a customized script and put it in the keymap directory
Click refresh script to show it
Select your script
Connect to your phone, start service and click apply
Press ~ key (the SwitchKey in the key map script) to switch to custom mapping mode
Press the ~ key again to switch back to normal mode
(For games such as PUBG Mobile) If you want to move vehicles with the STEER_WHEEL keys, you need to set the move mode to single rocker mode.

Group control

You can control all your phones at the same time.

Thanks

QtScrcpy is based on Genymobile's scrcpy project. Thanks a lot!

The difference between QtScrcpy and the original scrcpy is as follows:

key points	scrcpy	QtScrcpy
ui	sdl	qt
video encode	ffmpeg	ffmpeg
video render	sdl	opengl
cross-platform	self implemented	provided by Qt
language	C	C++
style	sync	async
keymap	no custom keymap	support custom keymap
build	meson+gradle	qmake or CMake

It's very easy to customize your GUI with Qt
Asynchronous programming of Qt-based signal slot mechanism improves performance
Easy to learn
Add support for multi-touch

If you are interested in it and want to learn how it works but do not know how to get started, you can choose to purchase my recorded video lessons. It details the development architecture and the development process of the entire software and helps you develop QtScrcpy from scratch.

Requirements

Android API >= 21 (Android 5.0).

Make sure you have enabled ADB debugging on your device(s).

Download

Windows

On Windows, for simplicity, prebuilt archives with all the dependencies (including ADB) are available at Releases:

QtScrcpy

or you can build it yourself

Mac OS

On Mac OS, for simplicity, prebuilt archives with all the dependencies (including ADB) are available at Releases:

QtScrcpy

or you can build it yourself

Linux

For Arch Linux Users, you can use AUR to install: yay -Syu qtscrcpy (may be outdated; maintainer: yochananmarqos)

For users in other distros, you can use the prebuilt archives from Releases:

QtScrcpy

or you can get it at GitHub Actions, in branch dev and download the latest artifact.

or you can build it yourself (not recommended, get it in Actions if you can)

Run

Connect to your Android device on your computer, then run the program and click USB connect or WiFi connect

Wireless connection steps (ensure that the mobile phone and PC are on the same LAN):

Enable USB debugging in developer options on the Android device
Connect the Android device to the computer via USB
Click update device, and you will see that the device number is updated
Click get device IP
Click start adbd
Click wireless connect
Click update device again, and another device with an IP address will be found. Select this device.
Click start service

Note: it is not necessary to keep your Android device connected via USB after you start adbd.

Interface button introduction：

Start config: function parameter settings before starting the service

You can set the bit rate, resolution, recording format, and video save path of the locally recorded video.
- Background record: the Android device screen is not displayed after starting the service. It is recorded in the background.
- Always on top: the video window for Android devices will be kept on the top
- Close screen: automatically turn off the Android device screen to save power after starting the service
- Reverse connection: service startup mode. You can uncheck it if you experience connection failure with a message more than one device
Refresh devices: Refresh the currently connected device
Start service: connect to the Android device
Stop service: disconnect from the Android device
Stop all services: disconnect all connected Android devices
Get device IP: Get the IP address of the Android device and update it to the "Wireless" area for the ease of wireless connection setting.
Start adbd: Start the adbd service of the Android device. You must start it before the wireless connection.
Wireless connect: Connect to Android devices wirelessly
Wireless disconnect: Disconnect wirelessly connected Android devices
adb command: execute customized ADB commands (blocking commands are not supported now, such as a shell)

The main function

Display Android device screens in real-time
Real-time mouse and keyboard control of Android devices
Screen recording
Screenshot to png
Wireless connection
Supports multiple device connections
Full-screen display
Display on the top
Install apk: drag and drop apk to the video window to install
Transfer files: Drag files to the video window to send files to Android devices
Background recording: record only, no display interface
Copy-paste

It is possible to synchronize clipboards between the computer and the device, in both directions:
- Ctrl + c copies the device clipboard to the computer clipboard;
- Ctrl + Shift + v copies the computer clipboard to the device clipboard;
- Ctrl + v pastes the computer clipboard as a sequence of text events (non-ASCII characters does not yet work).
Group control
Sync device speaker sound to the computer (based on sndcpy, Android 10+ only)

DEVELOP

Everyone is welcome to maintain this project and contribute your own code, but please follow these requirements:

Please open PRs to the dev branch instead of the master branch
Please rebase the original project before opening PRs
Please submit PRs on the principle of "small amounts, many times" (one PR for a change is recommended)
Please keep the code style consistent with the existing style.

Why develop QtScrcpy?

There are several reasons listed below according to importance (high to low).

In the process of learning Qt, I need a real project to try.
I have some background skills in audio and video and I am interested in them.
I have some Android development skills. But I have used it for a long time. I want to consolidate it.
I found scrcpy and decided to re-make it with the new technology stack (C++ + Qt + Opengl + FFmpeg).

Build

All the dependencies are provided and it is easy to compile.

QtScrcpy

Non-Arch Linux Users

Set up the Qt development environment with the official Qt installer or third-party tools such as aqt on the target platform. Qt version bigger than 5.12 is required. (use MSVC 2019 on Windows)
Clone the project with git clone --recurse-submodules git@github.com:barry-ran/QtScrcpy.git
For Windows, open CMakeLists.txt with QtCreator and compile Release
For Linux, directly run ./ci/linux/build_for_linux.sh "Release" Note: compiled artifacts are located at output/x64/Release

Arch Linux Users

Install packages: base-devel cmake qt5-base qt5-multimedia qt5-x11extras (qtcreator is recommended)
Clone the project with git clone --recurse-submodules git@github.com:barry-ran/QtScrcpy.git
Run ./ci/linux/build_for_linux.sh "Release"

Scrcpy-Server

Set up Android development environment on the target platform
Open server project in project root with Android Studio
The first time you open it, if you do not have the corresponding version of Gradle, you will be prompted to find Gradle, whether to upgrade Gradle or create it. Select Cancel. After cancelling, you will be prompted to select the location of existing Gradle. Cancel it too and it will download automatically.
After compiling the apk, rename it to scrcpy-server and replace QtScrcpy/QtScrcpyCore/src/third_party/scrcpy-server.

Since it is based on scrcpy, it uses the same license as scrcpy
