Hi all: We are going to implement an awesome feature called "Miracast" on B2G, which is already the native AOSP feature since 4.2. Generally speaking, Miracast can project/mirror one screen (e.g. our cell phone) to another (e.g. TV).
You can find a cool demo and a brief introduction in the following link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NA3Opudj4VU&noredirect=1 Miracast, or "Wifi Display", is based on two important technologies: Wifi Direct and RTSP. With "Wifi Direct", two devices can connect to each other without an AP; RTSP is the protocol used to stream out the frames shown on our screen. We've already created a meta bug 925615 to keep track of the development, which contains several sub-tasks, such as Bug 811635 - B2G Wifi: Support Wifi Direct Bug 945569 - Support Wifi Display device discovery and group formation Bug 946110 - [B2G][WFD] Porting libstagefright_wfd to Necko Bug 947063 - Secreview: Support Wifi Display Bug 949901 - [B2G][WFD] Implementing WifiDisplayManager and its DOM counter part and the proposed design diagram: https://bug925615.bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=8347062 The biggest design decision we haven't made is what process RTSP server should reside. Does anyone have any suggestion on this as well as the overall design? Thanks :) Many Thanks, Vincent Chang, Software Engineer of Mozilla Taiwan _______________________________________________ dev-b2g mailing list dev-b2g@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-b2g
