# scrcpy (v1.3)
|
||
|
||
This application provides display and control of Android devices connected on
|
||
USB (or [over TCP/IP][article-tcpip]). It does not require any _root_ access.
|
||
It works on _GNU/Linux_, _Windows_ and _MacOS_.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Requirements
|
||
|
||
The Android part requires at least API 21 (Android 5.0).
|
||
|
||
You need [adb]. It is available in the [Android SDK platform
|
||
tools][platform-tools], or packaged in your distribution (`android-adb-tools`).
|
||
|
||
On Windows, just [download scrcpy for Windows](#windows), `adb` is included.
|
||
|
||
Make sure you [enabled adb debugging][enable-adb] on your device(s).
|
||
|
||
The client requires [FFmpeg] and [LibSDL2]. On Windows, they are included in the
|
||
[prebuilt application](#windows).
|
||
|
||
[adb]: https://developer.android.com/studio/command-line/adb.html
|
||
[enable-adb]: https://developer.android.com/studio/command-line/adb.html#Enabling
|
||
[platform-tools]: https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools.html
|
||
[platform-tools-windows]: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
|
||
[ffmpeg]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FFmpeg
|
||
[LibSDL2]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_DirectMedia_Layer
|
||
|
||
## Build and install
|
||
|
||
### System-specific steps
|
||
|
||
#### Linux
|
||
|
||
Install the required packages from your package manager.
|
||
|
||
##### Debian/Ubuntu
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# runtime dependencies
|
||
sudo apt install ffmpeg libsdl2-2.0.0
|
||
|
||
# client build dependencies
|
||
sudo apt install make gcc pkg-config meson \
|
||
libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libavutil-dev \
|
||
libsdl2-dev
|
||
|
||
# server build dependencies
|
||
sudo apt install openjdk-8-jdk
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
##### Fedora
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# enable RPM fusion free
|
||
sudo dnf install https://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm
|
||
|
||
# client build dependencies
|
||
sudo dnf install SDL2-devel ffms2-devel meson gcc make
|
||
|
||
# server build dependencies
|
||
sudo dnf install java
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
##### Arch Linux
|
||
|
||
Two [AUR] packages have been created by users:
|
||
|
||
- [`scrcpy`](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/scrcpy/)
|
||
- [`scrcpy-prebuiltserver`](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/scrcpy-prebuiltserver/)
|
||
|
||
[AUR]: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository
|
||
|
||
|
||
#### Windows
|
||
|
||
For Windows, for simplicity, prebuilt archives with all the dependencies
|
||
(including `adb`) are available:
|
||
|
||
- [`scrcpy-win32-v1.3.zip`][direct-win32].
|
||
_(SHA-256: 51a2990e631ed469a7a86ff38107d517a91d313fb3f8327eb7bc71dde40870b5)_
|
||
- [`scrcpy-win64-v1.3.zip`][direct-win64].
|
||
_(SHA-256: 0768a80d3d600d0bbcd220ca150ae88a3a58d1fe85c308a8c61f44480b711e43)_
|
||
|
||
[direct-win32]: https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/releases/download/v1.3/scrcpy-win32-v1.3.zip
|
||
[direct-win64]: https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/releases/download/v1.3/scrcpy-win64-v1.3.zip
|
||
|
||
Instead, you may want to build it manually.
|
||
|
||
In that case, download the [platform-tools][platform-tools-windows] and extract
|
||
the following files to a directory accessible from your `PATH`:
|
||
- `adb.exe`
|
||
- `AdbWinApi.dll`
|
||
- `AdbWinUsbApi.dll`
|
||
|
||
##### Cross-compile from Linux
|
||
|
||
This is the preferred method (and the way the release is built).
|
||
|
||
From _Debian_, install _mingw_:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
sudo apt install mingw-w64 mingw-w64-tools
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
You also need the JDK to build the server:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
sudo apt install openjdk-8-jdk
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Then generate the releases:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
make -f Makefile.CrossWindows
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
It will generate win32 and win64 releases into `dist/`.
|
||
|
||
|
||
##### In MSYS2
|
||
|
||
From Windows, you need [MSYS2] to build the project. From an MSYS2 terminal,
|
||
install the required packages:
|
||
|
||
[MSYS2]: http://www.msys2.org/
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# runtime dependencies
|
||
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-SDL2 \
|
||
mingw-w64-x86_64-ffmpeg
|
||
|
||
# client build dependencies
|
||
pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-make \
|
||
mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc \
|
||
mingw-w64-x86_64-pkg-config \
|
||
mingw-w64-x86_64-meson
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
For a 32 bits version, replace `x86_64` by `i686`:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# runtime dependencies
|
||
pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-SDL2 \
|
||
mingw-w64-i686-ffmpeg
|
||
|
||
# client build dependencies
|
||
pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-make \
|
||
mingw-w64-i686-gcc \
|
||
mingw-w64-i686-pkg-config \
|
||
mingw-w64-i686-meson
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Java (>= 7) is not available in MSYS2, so if you plan to build the server,
|
||
install it manually and make it available from the `PATH`:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
export PATH="$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Mac OS
|
||
|
||
The application is available in [Homebrew]. Just install it:
|
||
|
||
[Homebrew]: https://brew.sh/
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
brew install scrcpy
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Instead, you may want to build it manually. Install the packages:
|
||
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# runtime dependencies
|
||
brew install sdl2 ffmpeg
|
||
|
||
# client build dependencies
|
||
brew install pkg-config meson
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Additionally, if you want to build the server, install Java 8 from Caskroom, and
|
||
make it avaliable from the `PATH`:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
brew tap caskroom/versions
|
||
brew cask install java8
|
||
export JAVA_HOME="$(/usr/libexec/java_home --version 1.8)"
|
||
export PATH="$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Docker
|
||
|
||
See [pierlon/scrcpy-docker](https://github.com/pierlon/scrcpy-docker).
|
||
|
||
### Common steps
|
||
|
||
Install the [Android SDK] (_Android Studio_), and set `ANDROID_HOME` to
|
||
its directory. For example:
|
||
|
||
[Android SDK]: https://developer.android.com/studio/index.html
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
export ANDROID_HOME=~/android/sdk
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Clone the project:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
git clone https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy
|
||
cd scrcpy
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Then, build:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
meson x --buildtype release --strip -Db_lto=true
|
||
cd x
|
||
ninja
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
You can test it from here:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
ninja run
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Or you can install it on the system:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
sudo ninja install # without sudo on Windows
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
This installs two files:
|
||
|
||
- `/usr/local/bin/scrcpy`
|
||
- `/usr/local/share/scrcpy/scrcpy-server.jar`
|
||
|
||
Just remove them to "uninstall" the application.
|
||
|
||
|
||
#### Prebuilt server
|
||
|
||
Since the server binary, that will be pushed to the Android device, does not
|
||
depend on your system and architecture, you may want to use the prebuilt binary
|
||
instead:
|
||
|
||
- [`scrcpy-server-v1.3.jar`][direct-scrcpy-server].
|
||
_(SHA-256: 0f9a5a217f33f0ed7a1498ceb3c0cccf31c53533893aa952e674c1571d2740c1)_
|
||
|
||
[direct-scrcpy-server]: https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/releases/download/v1.3/scrcpy-server-v1.3.jar
|
||
|
||
In that case, the build does not require Java or the Android SDK.
|
||
|
||
Download the prebuilt server somewhere, and specify its path during the Meson
|
||
configuration:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
meson x --buildtype release --strip -Db_lto=true \
|
||
-Dprebuilt_server=/path/to/scrcpy-server.jar
|
||
cd x
|
||
ninja
|
||
sudo ninja install
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Run
|
||
|
||
_At runtime, `adb` must be accessible from your `PATH`._
|
||
|
||
If everything is ok, just plug an Android device, and execute:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
scrcpy
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
It accepts command-line arguments, listed by:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
scrcpy --help
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
For example, to decrease video bitrate to 2Mbps (default is 8Mbps):
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
scrcpy -b 2M
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
To limit the video dimensions (e.g. if the device is 2540×1440, but the host
|
||
screen is smaller, or cannot decode such a high definition):
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
scrcpy -m 1024
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The device screen may be cropped to mirror only part of the screen:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
scrcpy -c 1224:1440:0:0 # 1224x1440 at offset (0,0)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
If several devices are listed in `adb devices`, you must specify the _serial_:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
scrcpy -s 0123456789abcdef
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
To show physical touches while scrcpy is running:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
scrcpy -t
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
To run without installing:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
./run x [options]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
(where `x` is your build directory).
|
||
|
||
|
||

|

|
||
|
||
## Why _scrcpy_?
|
||
|
||
A colleague challenged me to find a name as unpronounceable as [gnirehtet].
|
||
|
||
[`strcpy`] copies a **str**ing; `scrcpy` copies a **scr**een.
|
||
