The “OpenGL renderer” window created on Linux by “-vs glimagesink” sometimes does not close properly when its “close” button is clicked. (this is a GStreamer issue). You may need to terminate uxplay with Ctrl-C to close a “zombie” OpenGl window.
GStreamer issues: To troubleshoot GStreamer execute “export GST_DEBUG=2” to set the GStreamer debug-level environment-variable in the terminal where you will run uxplay, so that you see warning and error messages; (replace “2” by “4” to see much (much) more of what is happening inside GStreamer). Run “gst-inspect-1.0” to see which GStreamer plugins are installed on your system.
Some extra GStreamer packages for special plugins may need to be installed (or reinstalled: a user using a Wayland display system as an alternative to X11 reported that after reinstalling Lubuntu 18.4, UxPlay would not work until gstreamer1.0-x was installed, presumably for Wayland’s X11-compatibility mode). Different distributions may break up GStreamer 1.x into packages in different ways; the packages listed above in the build instructions should bring in other required GStreamer packages as dependencies, but will not install all possible plugins.
-Use with non-Apple clients: one user tried to use UxPlay with an airmypc client (a non-free commercial Windows application that can mirror a Windows screen on an Apple TV using AirPlay mirror protocol). While airmypc can mirror to a true AppleTV and some other AirPlay receivers, UxPlay appears to correctly pair with this client, but then fails to decrypt both the audio and video streams. Possibly a different variant of the AirPlay encryption/decryption protocol not supported by UxPlay is used by this client. Without further information, there is no obvious fix.

Options:
-n server_name (Default: UxPlay); server_name@_hostname_ will be the name that appears offering AirPlay services to your iPad, iPhone etc, where hostname is the name of the server running uxplay. This will also now be the name shown above the mirror display (X11) window.
