# TeleportFling TODO

Backlog of deferred / planned work, tracked outside of milestone milestones.

## Planned

- [x] **Monitor picker in the GUI** — monitors are enumerated via hyprctl
      (Hyprland) and shown as a dropdown in the settings window; the selected
      monitor persists as `stream_index`. Falls back to a single indexed
      option on other compositors.
- [x] **Surface runtime errors in the GUI** — the engine records the most
      recent capture/encode/packet/audio error and the GUI shows it in the
      status label and tray tooltip (highlighted as a danger).
- [x] **`--config` flag** — the CLI and GUI accept a custom config path
      (`teleportfling --config /path/config.json`); explicit CLI flags
      override file values. Used by the systemd daemon unit in contrib/.
- [x] **Run as a daemon** — `contrib/install-daemon.sh` installs a per-user
      systemd unit (`contrib/teleportfling.service`) that starts the headless
      CLI with its own config at `~/.config/teleportfling/daemon.json`.

## Future / Ideas (not yet scoped)

- [ ] **Live settings changes mid-stream** — `flinger.SetConfig` for FPS/quality
      without a restart.
- [ ] **Bitrate / bandwidth tuning** — options beyond the balanced 1080p30
      default.
- [ ] **Screen capture scaling / downsampling** — capture a scaled region rather
      than the monitor's native resolution.
- [ ] **Multi-monitor verification** — the GUI monitor picker enumerates via
      hyprctl; confirm behaviour on a real multi-monitor setup.
- [ ] **Non-Hyprland monitor enumeration** — portal-based fallback so the picker
      works on GNOME/KDE etc. (currently falls back to a single indexed option).
- [ ] **Packaging** — Nix flake package, AppImage, and `.deb` for Debian/Ubuntu
      (in progress: flake package, AppImage and .deb scripts added under
      packaging/; verify on a real Debian/Ubuntu machine).
