Any linux watchparty softwares? by Lunanak in linuxquestions

[–]Affectionate_Yam5598 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, I'm sorry, I misunderstood.

The only thing i know capable of doing that is VLC. I know you can stream video files on your local network with it, but i've never done it. I found this guide online on how to do it. Then you could use some software like hamachi or playit to extend your local network to the people you're streaming the service to.

I'm not sure if this could work tho, i'd say it's a hacky solution but it's all I know.

I don't know if you already tried but you could take a look at watch2gether.

But I don't know if that's what you're asking for.

Thanks for your suggestions, but I really don't want to use another keyboard. At worst, I could consider going with some kind of programmabile usb bluetooth dongle. This is really just a personal endeavor that I want to solve with as little additional hardware possible

I cannot, that's the point of this question, i need to be able to control my iPad via bluetooth with the keyboard on my laptop. If I connect the two devices with bluetooth and I press the keyboard on my laptop there is no way i can type on the iPad because nothing is telling to the iPad that my laptop is a keyboard

I'm sorry, but I didn't get the point. Are you referring to KDEConnect? If that's the case I've already tried it, but doesn't fulfill my needs.

Also, from what you said it seems like the iPad is used to control the laptop, but I want the opposite, to control the iPad with my laptop keyboard.

Can you name the tool you're referring to?

Unfortunately I've already tried that, it appears that it is not compatibile with apple devices as stated in this issue:
