    I use it often, it’s a great tool! Of course the latency problem exists but maybe it will get better.

      Some numbers I can give you: X11 Screen capture: ~1ms VAAPI video encoding + capturing: ~12ms NVENC video encoding + capturing: ~10ms End to end video latency over WiFi to iPad: ~50ms (Measured by taking a photo of both screens with a timer running)

      Tested on a Dell XPS 15 with a screen resolution of 1920x1080.

      On Android devices you can reduce the latency brought by WiFi by using USB tethering or adb, see the FAQ.

        How’s the input latency to the main screen only? It seems like it mainly lags on the tablet screen.

          Yes you are right, input lag is definitely lower. I don’t have numbers though as it is kinda hard to measure.
