A new GNOME Shell extension called UxPlay Control provides a GUI interface for managing UxPlay, an open-source AirPlay server that enables screen mirroring from iPhone, iPad, or Mac to Linux desktops. The extension adds a panel applet for starting/stopping the service and configuring settings like device names, passwords, resolution, and audio options. UxPlay supports screen mirroring, HTTP Live Streaming for video, and AirPlay Audio with Apple Lossless support, though it doesn't allow interaction with mirrored content or DRM-protected video playback.
