Skystream is a simple utility to stream your desktop or a window over your local network. It's designed to be a lightweight bridge between your PC and other devices like TVs, tablets, or even just another computer.
You have two easy ways to view your stream:
- Built-in Web Player: Just open the Skystream URL in any modern web browser. It’s the easiest way to watch on a Smart TV or phone.
- VLC Media Player: For a more robust experience, you can open the network stream directly in VLC. This is a great option for low-latency viewing on another PC.
