Connection speed & possiblity to mirror/flip?

Opened this issue · 0 comments

Thank you very much for providing the expertise shared here!

I find the connection via ADB rather slow. If I use screen mirroring via the tigervnc-scraping-server running x0vncserver, the connection is fast. Any spontaneous ideas in terms of how to improve the speed in your setup would be welcome.

What I am really interested in is to use a tablet as secondary display on a teleprompter in a video conference (setup like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ScnXGRLugVk). The problem is to mirror flip the display. Of course, this is possible with an HDMI camera field monitor, but that is much less travel friendly and versatile compared to an android tablet.

One can use VNC via ADB but it seems next to impossible to mirror flip the image. xrandr -x does turn the display, but only locally, not via VNC. Android VNC clients able to mirror flip on the client side do not seem to be available. A VNC forum discussion forum did not provide an answer (https://groups.google.com/g/tigervnc-users/c/vy-lLJ3p8lY).

Do your think that your setup could incorporate an xrandr -x, so that the VNC target does see the screen mirror flipped? For that purpose a separate display (to the left or right ...) would not be necessary. A reflection of the main display would be just as good.
