#### UDP chunked screen streaming and real-time latency telemetry for Linux

A lightweight Linux alternative to Parsec for UDP screen streaming & real-time
latency telemetry inspired by Parsec workflows.
Disclaimer: This project is an independent open-source tool and is not
affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Parsec Cloud, Inc. or Unity
Technologies. Uses CPU JPEG frame encoding over UDP rather than proprietary
GPU hardware codecs.

Key capabilities:
• UDP Chunked Frame Streamer (Host & Client): captures X11 desktop frames via
QScreen.grabWindow, encodes JPEG at configurable FPS (10-60), scale
(50%-100%), and quality (30-95), splits frames into numbered UDP datagram
chunks with microsecond timestamps, and reassembles frames in real time.
• UDP Input Back-Channel: forwards mouse movement, clicks, scroll wheel, and
keyboard events over UDP; applies input on X11 via XTest (libXtst) when
available, or runs in honest view-only mode otherwise.
• Live Real-Time Telemetry & Graphs: measures round-trip latency (RTT ms) via
UDP timestamp echo, RFC 3550 EWMA jitter (ms), packet/chunk loss (%),
measured FPS, and bitrate (Mbps) on live QPainter sparklines + frame log.
• Stream Presets, Peer Access Control & Diagnostics: LAN High Quality /
Balanced / Low-Bandwidth presets, HMAC peer token allowlist & session log,
and a built-in localhost UDP loopback benchmark.

Honest limitations: direct UDP only (no cloud relay or NAT traversal; host
UDP port must be reachable on LAN/VPN). Uses CPU JPEG frame encoding rather
than GPU hardware H.264/HEVC codecs, does not stream audio, and cannot access
Wayland-native compositor windows or root lock screens.
