nx

I need to multicast an x11 application window to multiple (sai 100) clients in a lossy (wireless) environment.

Right now, I was able to do it through screen grabbing (vlc) and h264 compression, but there should be a cleaner solution, something along the lines of a multicast NX session.

Is there anything which could work with some glue, or should I build something for the purpose?

Thanks
