NymphCast is an open-source audio and video streaming server that allows you to stream media from one device to another. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation process of NymphCast on Windows 11.
You can download the latest version of NymphCast from its official website: http://nyanko.ws/nymphcast.php
Once you have downloaded NymphCast, extract the compressed folder to a directory on your PC.
Open the extracted folder and locate the 'vc_redist.x64.exe' file. Double-click on it to install the necessary Visual C++ libraries.
Next, locate the 'nymphcast_server.exe' file and run it as administrator.
A command prompt window will appear, indicating that the server is running. Keep the window open until you are done with the installation process.
Open your web browser and type 'localhost:8080' in the address bar. This will take you to the NymphCast web interface.
On the web interface, click 'Settings' and configure your preferences.
In the 'General' tab, you can change the server name, set the audio and video quality, and adjust the buffer size.
In the 'Audio' tab, you can select the audio devices that you want to use.
In the 'Video' tab, you can select the video devices that you want to use.
To connect your mobile device to the NymphCast server, download the NymphCast mobile app from your app store.
Once installed, open the app, and select the server that you want to connect to.
You can now send audio and video files to the server and play them on your PC.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed NymphCast on your Windows 11 PC, and you are now able to stream media from your mobile device to your PC.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
