How to mirror iPad screen to Linux over WiFi - lmmx/devnotes GitHub Wiki
As described here, there is software called UxPlay which will mirror your screen, its only requirement is 5GHz Wifi (not 2.4GHz), and works on Ubuntu 18 and up.
- People always say this, but
sudo apt update; sudo apt upgrade
before this!
sudo apt install cmake
sudo apt install libssl-dev libavahi-compat-libdnssd-dev
sudo apt install libgstreamer1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev gstreamer1.0-libav
sudo apt install gstreamer1.0-vaapi # For Intel graphics
After these prerequisites are installed, clone the repo and build
git clone [email protected]:antimof/UxPlay.git
cd UxPlay
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
Then just call the uxplay
executable (that's gone in the build/
subdirectory) and you're away.
I put this in ~/opt/
so that I could then symlink in ~/opt/bin/
- use
readlink -f
to give the full path:ln -s
doesn't expand a relative link path
ln -s $(readlink -f uxplay) ~/opt/bin/uxplay
Now uxplay
is available on the command line!
