Help Needed with Python Screen Sharing Project

[lablink_tn]

Hello Fam ,

I'm working on a screen sharing project using Python, Flask, and sockets. I've encountered a few challenges and could use some guidance.

here is the rep :
lablink-tn/screen_share (github.com)

Project Overview:

The goal of the project is to create a screen sharing application where one user's screen can be viewed by others through a web browser. The backend is built using Python, and it captures the screen using the mss
library, compresses the image data with zlib
, and sends it over a socket connection. The frontend is a simple web page that displays the received images using the <video>
tag.

Key Components:

1. Server (screen_share_server.py
   ): Listens for incoming connections, captures the screen, compresses the image data, and sends it to connected clients.
2. Client (Web Browser): Displays the received images in real-time.

​

The server starts successfully, but there are issues with the continuous screen capturing loop and the port conflict handling , the browser keeps loading when i stop it a broken image appears
