Hello everyone! I would like to part ways with my Google Chromecast. Fortunately, I had an extra Raspberry Pi 4B (4GB version) in my drawer, which I used to install LineageOS. Afterwards, I installed F-Droid and a customized launcher to give it a more AndroidTV-like appearance.
Now, I have a couple of questions:
- What can I use as an alternative to Google’s screencasting?
- Is it advisable to enable SSH with root access on the Raspberry Pi?
Thanks!
only my screen
If you only want to cast your screen, maybe try thinking more in terms of “KVM” than “Chromecast?”
In that case I’m afraid I don’t know any solution, hopefully you’ll find something that fits your needs. If you needed to cast Youtube-videos and such, I would’ve shared my own bodged method that combines KDE Connect, MPV and a regex-enabled fork of “handlr”.
