Re: Stream PC desktop on demand

To generate the stream, you execute a .bat file which starts VLC to capture the Screen and output the stream. Serviio then transcodes using ffmpeg and sends the stream to the tv.

When you finish watching the PC on the TV, just close VLC on your PC and this will also stop ffmpeg.

Return to Transcoding
