    If HW coding is ready, please just release it as a beta/experimental feature that can be enabled in the settings.
    You’ll gather feedback from enthusiasts and won’t interfere with regular users. I’ve used the Spacedesk alternative with HW encoding and the difference for me is noticeable:
    latency is lower, network requirements are less (95 Mbps vs 25-50 Mbps [same video file]).
    But spacedesk has some QoL features and I’m a fan of your product, so I use it and want to see it evolve, not recommend alternatives.

    Asking for standalone APK file too!
    This is necessary for lots of devices without Play Services pre-installed.

    1) Windows 11
    2) Iperf. Android server without parameters, Windows client with parameter to push the limits of my connection (I’m not sure this is necessary, but: –bandwidth 1000M)
    3) When on wireless, I am using Router, it can limit my connection. So… After iperf I haven’t seen any noticeable performance gain. Probably should try with Direct wireless connection.

    native USB is great, but when using Spacedesk with Tablet, I cannot utilize USB connection in a proper way.
    I need to use a USB Hub, which disables type-c input for data (only charging), but offers a type-a for data.
    That’s why me is using Ethernet OTG.
    After “warming up” of the Ethernet connection described in my prev response performance, is same great as with native USB.
    I think, that you should test this scenario, cause it’s working pretty well, just required one fix for now. And some of the users may benefit from it. Like, my PC has not much of high speed USB ports to use with Android, but there is powerful 2.5Gbit Ethernet vacant for connection.

    Thanks for the answer and your wonderful app, I hope there will be improvements!

    You can understand why PC to PC by USB is not possible. Just think about the following fact: when you are plugging device into USB (for example, Android device) you can see plugged device internal storage, but not PC’s storage. That’s because USB was designed with a Master/Slave relationship. Master (computer) known as Host, talks to simpler peripherals, which are Slave Devices.

    Usb to Usb connection of PCs is not possible. If you have Ethernet ports – connect PCs via them, but in case of Usb – only option is to use usb – ethernet adapters, this way it will work.

    @spacedesk-christian I don’t quite believe that you don’t know anything about the market share of h264 hardware codecs, take a look at Nvidia’s codec support matrix – all modern GPUs support h264, even older graphics cards like the 750ti or gt1030. Well, you can say that this is not your core audience, but… Intel HD Graphics 620 works in h264 and even h265, as does Amd Radeon Graphics.
    But most importantly, snapdragons from 810 are supporting h265!
    Currently, no one is talking about the possibility of encoding/decoding in h264 format, because it is outdated… AV1 is entering the market in huge strides, so the software should also be ready for new technology, sometimes just to show, that you are working on product.
    I love Spacedesk software, so I would like to see progress in the development of such an important part as the fundamental video processing capabilities! Turn on modern codecs not by default, but as an experimental feature – collect statistics and celebrate.
    I just want to point out that the processing of applications was scheduled for 2024, but time is running out.
    Best wishes to you, support dude <3

    P.S
    Of course, I am speaking about Android version of spacedesk
