<p><strong>-o</strong> turns on an “overscanned” option for the display window. This reduces the image resolution by using some of the pixels requested by option -s wxh (or their default values 1920x1080) by adding an empty boundary frame of unused pixels (which would be lost in a full-screen display that overscans, and is not displayed by gstreamer). Recommendation: <strong>dont use this option</strong> unless there is some special reason to use it.</p>
<p><strong>-p</strong> allows you to select the network ports used by UxPlay (these need to be opened if the server is behind a firewall). By itself, -p sets “legacy” ports TCP 7100, 7000, 7001, UDP 6000, 6001, 7011. -p n (e.g. -p 35000) sets TCP and UDP ports n, n+1, n+2. -p n1,n2,n3 (comma-separated values) sets each port separately; -p n1,n2 sets ports n1,n2,n2+1. -p tcp n or -p udp n sets just the TCP or UDP ports. Ports must be in the range [1024-65535].</p>
<p>If the -p option is not used, the ports are chosen dynamically (randomly), which will not work if a firewall is running.</p>
<p><strong>-m</strong> generates a random MAC address to use instead of the true hardware MAC number of the computers network card. (Different server_name, MAC addresses, and network ports are needed for each running uxplay if you attempt to run two instances of uxplay on the same computer.) If UxPlay fails to fing the true MAC address of the network card (as happens on macOS) a random MAC addresses will be used even if option <strong>-m</strong> was not specifed.</p>

(Note that a random MAC address will be different each time UxPlay is started).</p>
<p>Also: image transforms that had been added to RPiPlay have been ported to UxPlay:</p>
<p><strong>-f {H|V|I}</strong> implements “videoflip” image transforms: H = horizontal flip (right-left flip, or mirror image); V = vertical flip ; I = 180 degree rotation or inversion (which is the combination of H with V).</p>
<p><strong>-r {R|L}</strong> 90 degree Right (clockwise) or Left (counter-clockwise) rotations; these are carried out after any <strong>-f</strong> transforms.</p>

<p><strong>-as 0</strong> (or just <strong>-a</strong>) suppresses playing of streamed audio, but displays streamed video.</p>
<p><strong>-t <em>timeout</em></strong> will cause the server to relaunch (without stopping uxplay) if no connections have been present during the previous <em>timeout</em> seconds. (You may wish to use this because the Server may not be visible to new Clients that were inactive when the Server was launched, and an idle Bonjour registration also eventually becomes unavailable for new connections.) The timer only starts once a Client has first made a mirror connection and then has disconnected with “Stop Mirrroring”. <em>This option should <strong>not</strong> be used if the display window is an OpenGL window on macOS, as such an OpenGL window created by GStreamer does not terminate correctly (it causes a segfault) if it is still open when the GStreamer pipeline is closed.</em></p>
