Features

  • The stream can be directly read by VLC which is great because VLC is a very powerful tool, for example you can really easily record the stream in a file. [FAQ See the FAQ to find out how].
  • You can enable/disable sound or video streaming

Dear developers

The streaming stack used in Spydroid is available as a standalone library here with its Javadoc and explanations about how it works and how to use it. It is available under the Apache 2.0 license and I no longer maintain it.

Folks, please note that i'm a french dude, so if you see something that doesn't make any sense do not hesitate to correct me :) (fyhertz at gmail dot com).

Enjoy
