Use adb screenrecord command to mirror Android screen to PC via USB

Question

I\'ve tried the suggestion from fadden to mirror the Android screen to PC, but the vlc player screen show nothing:

Answer 1

mplayer

For the low latency playback, the mplayer worked the best so far.

adb shell screenrecord --output-format=h264 - | mplayer -framedrop -fps 6000 -cache 512 -demuxer h264es -

Note: the above sets the mplayer to consume frames as soon as possible. Though, as a result, the playback window may be sluggish when waiting for new frames.

The screenrecord has a 3 minutes time limit "feature". If you feel comfortable with recompiling it from code, here is a good link.

After recompiling the screenrecord:

adb shell screenrecord --time-limit=31000  --output-format=h264 - | mplayer -framedrop -fps 6000 -cache 512 -demuxer h264es -
