UxPlay is a GPLv3 unix AirPlay Mirror and AirPlay Audio server (but currently does not support AirPlay HLS video streaming): its main use is to act like an AppleTV for screen-mirroring (with audio) of iOS/MacOS clients (iPads, iPhones, MacBooks, etc.) in a shareable window on the server display, on a host running Linux, macOS, or other unix, or on Windows 10/11 (with the unix-like MYSYS2 environment), using Apple's AirPlay2 Mirror protocol. When the client screen is not mirrored, Apple Lossless (ALAC) AirPlay2 Audio can be streamed from the client to the server (with cover art made available for display by an external file viewer).

UxPlay is derived from https://github.com/FD-/RPiPlay, with audio and video rendered using GStreamer, and many enhancements. While originally targeted at x86/x86_64 server and desktop systems, it also supports Raspberry Pi . UxPlay should run on any Linux, and is tested on many Linux distributions. Also tested on macOS Sonoma and earlier (Intel and M2), FreeBSD 14, Windows 10 and 11 (64 bit)..

ChangeLog:
1.70 2024-10-04 Add support for 4K (h265) video (resolution 3840 x 2160), with new option -h265. Fix issue with GStreamer >= 1.24 when client sleeps, then wakes.
