Scrcpy Controller

IntelliJ/Android Studio plugin for running and managing scrcpy and adb devices (USB & WiFi both)

Why

I am an Android Developer myself and I always use scrcpy ❤ to test my work on my phone.I feel lazy to launch scrcpy from terminal everytime. So I thought why not make a plugin for this so it would help all the Android Developers!

Exclusive Features

• One Click to switch USB Device to WiFi
• Run scrcpy on multiple devices effortlessly
• Disconnect WiFi Devices
• Connect WiFi Devices
• All options from scrcpy v1.17 are configurable from the UI
• Quick Shortcuts button for you to remember scrcpy shortcuts
• Easy installation, scrcpy does not need to be added in your system's PATH Variable
• Shortcuts are directly loaded from scrcpy's GitHub README if you are connected to the internet, else static shortcuts are loaded from scrcpy v1.16

Requirements

1. Works on Android Studio 4.0+ and other IntelliJ-based IDEs with build number 193.4099.13 and above
2. adb and scrcpy installed (need not be configured in PATH)

Installation

Bonus

• All options visible in the UI excluding the devices table (obviously) persist their values across IDE Restarts!
• The To WiFi button will automatically try to switch your USB-connected device to WiFi adb by:
  1. Restarting adbd in tcpip mode (uses the port entered in ADB WiFi section or 5555 (default))
  2. Extract device's local WiFi IP and run's adb connect on the extracted IP

Known Issues

• If you use the plugin's stop button to terminate an active scrcpy recording session with mp4 extension, the mp4 file is not playable. This is being caused by Java's Process not interrupting scrcpy session properly. Similar issue exists with mkv extension, although the mkv file can be played properly, it is not seekable.
  Workaround: Close the scrcpy session with the window's close button
• jadb throws an exception if any connected device becomes offline, hence devices list is not refreshed

Roadmap

• Provide better UI/UX
• Add support for sndcpy
• Check and install scrcpy updates
