While it's possible to stream most content to Apple Vision Pro directly over the internet, having the ability to use Apple Vision Pro as an HDMI display can still be useful.
Since Apple Vision Pro does not support connecting to an HDMI input directly or using an HDMI capture card, we have to be a little creative to make this work. NDI provides the ability to stream HDMI content over a local network with really low latency, and it works great with Apple Vision Pro.
This page shows the setup I’m using.
| // Sometimes you have a large file on a small disk and would like to "transform" | |
| // it in some way: for example, by decompressing it. However, you might not have | |
| // enough space on disk to keep both the the compressed file and the | |
| // decompressed results. If the process can be done in a streaming fashion, it | |
| // would be nice if the file could be "drained"; that is, the file would be | |
| // sequentially deleted as it is consumed. At the start you'd have 100% of the | |
| // original file, somewhere in the middle you'd have about half of the original | |
| // file and half of your output, and by the end the original file will be gone | |
| // and you'll be left with just the results. If you do it this way, you might | |
| // be able to do the entire operation without extra space! |
