UxPlay 1.71

[fduncanh]

UxPlay is a GPLv3 unix AirPlay Mirror and AirPlay Audio server (NEW in v1.71: now with support for AirPlay HLS video streaming from YouTube): 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. In audio-only mode, 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 renders audio and video using GStreamer, and supports x86/x86_64 systems, as well as Raspberry Pi . UxPlay should run on any Linux, and is tested on many Linux distributions. Also tested on macOS (Intel and Apple Silicon), FreeBSD, Windows 10 and 11 (64 bit).

ChangeLog:
1.71 2024-12-13 Add support for HTTP Live Streaming (HLS), initially only for YouTube movies. Fix issue with NTP timeout on Windows.
