Desktop Presenter

Desktop Presenter is an application that allows you to share live captures of custom or precise regions of your desktop or the fullscreen with any computer in your local network.

The setup is a fast and forthright operation that is unlikely to take too much of your time. The application does not come with a GUI, but with a rather small settings window where you can select the desired source along with the area that you want to stream.

It is worth mentioning that the program detects the maximum resolution your computer is capable of, so you can choose between that or a window of the tool that is the center of your streaming. As far as the selection go, you can opt between full screen, custom region, custom centered and fixed centered areas.

The application can work as standalone, but it can also be launched from within Wirecast. In the eventuality that you decide to access it from the later, then you will be happy to learn that Wirecast detects the application automatically. Then again, you need to access the settings and make sure that you set the utility as the main source.

In case you choose to use it as standalone, then you can specify the source, selecting and whether you prefer to include 3D compatibility and capture audio. Irrespective of how you prefer to access the application, you need to make sure that you have port 7272 opened in the firewall. Moreover, if you do not have Bonjour Services installed, then you need to enter the TCP/IP address of the computer you are broadcasting manually.

Regardless of whether you are holding a live tutorial on how to operate an application or perhaps are making a guide on how to complete a quest in a video game, then perhaps Desktop Presenter could come in handy.
