I'm wondering if anyone knows of a software solution for screen mirroring from one PC/laptop to another running XBMC (both running Windows 7).
The new "Airplay Mirroring" feature in Apple TV 2 does this well, allowing any iOS and now OSX device to mirror their screen to an Apple TV. You can even do this from a PC using a program called "Airparrot".
There doesn't seem to be an equivalent in the PC/Windows world allowing a PC to be the receiver rather than an AppleTV. Sure there are screen sharing programs like RDP, VNC, Teamviewer and so on, but they struggle at 1080p video, 3D gaming and so on. Surely Apple is not the only one who can figure out how to stream this content over the network fast enough.
So I'm looking for any possible server-client software that might exist. Or Adding "Airplay Mirroring" support to XBMC would also work!
