Looking to see if there are any open source alternatives to this. It works well but it's a cost assessment issue at this point.

Not the same thing as its not an AirPlay (AirParrot) solution, but is a broadcasting solution to a stream or file.

I looked at AirParrot and thought that it was a broadcasting solution. What do you see it as doing?

I like and use Miracast a lot... great if your device supports it. The other end is basically an HDMI thumb drive that plugs in to your TV, powered by USB that also goes into your TV.
