    nomi-san/parsec-vdd

    5,346View on GitHub↗

    parsec-vdd is a virtual display driver manager and headless server display emulator. It simulates active software-defined monitors to enable remote desktop sessions and game streaming on host systems that lack physical displays. The project provides a system tray interface for managing the monitor lifecycle, allowing users to add or remove virtual screens and capture screenshots. It enables the definition of custom widths, heights, and refresh rates for these virtual displays via system registry presets. The tool handles display property configuration and monitors device status using hardwar

    This repository is a virtual display driver manager and headless screen emulator that lets you create software-defined monitors for remote streaming and headless hosts, fulfilling your need for virtual display capabilities.

    BetterDisplay is a comprehensive display management utility and virtual display engine designed to provide granular control over monitor configurations. It functions as a low-level hardware controller that interacts directly with graphics drivers and system APIs to override manufacturer limitations, enabling users to manage resolution, scaling, brightness, and color profiles across complex multi-monitor setups. The project distinguishes itself through its ability to generate synthetic virtual displays and inject custom framebuffers into the graphics pipeline, allowing for arbitrary resolution

    This utility provides virtual screen creation and advanced display management tailored for macOS, though it lacks cross-platform support and dedicated low-latency streaming features.

    Stengo/DeskPad

    7,772View on GitHub↗

    DeskPad is a macOS virtual display manager and window management utility designed to isolate and share specific screen content. It creates software-defined monitors at the operating system level to provide a dedicated drawing surface for mirroring content to an audience without exposing the primary workspace. The tool employs cursor location tracking to automate window focus, automatically bringing application windows to the front when the mouse enters the virtual display area. It allows for the creation and resizing of virtual monitors through system-level preferences to ensure shared conten

    DeskPad is a macOS virtual display manager that creates software-defined monitors for isolated screen sharing, though it is scoped specifically to Apple platforms rather than offering cross-platform support.
