What is NymphCast?
NymphCast is a software solution which turns your choice of hardware into an audio and video source for a television or (powered) speakers. It enables the streaming of audio and video over the network from a client device or media server, as well as the streaming of internet media to a NymphCast server, controlled by a client device, or directly on the receiver.
In addition, the server supports NymphCast apps (currently in preview status) written in AngelScript to extend the overall NymphCast functionality with e.g. 3rd party audio / video streaming protocol support on the server side, and customisable UIs in the client application.
NymphCast requires the use of a client device in all but the GUI ('Smart TV') mode. The server application (receiver) runs on a target device, while the client device functions as a remote control device:
Client-side core functionality is provided through the NymphCast library.
