Selective screen sharing
Disclosed are various examples for selective screen sharing. In one example, a computing device can generate a video stream based on a screen capture and transmit the video stream to a destination device. The computing device can also obtain a user-specified modification to an area of the screen capture within the video stream. The computing device can also update the video stream by application of a transformation to the screen capture based at least in part on the user-specified modification, after the video stream started transmission to the destination device. In some cases, a user-specified modification to the area is also obtained. The video stream can be updated by applying an updated transformation to the screen capture that obscures the updated area within the video stream.
1. A system for selective screen sharing, comprising:
a computing device; and
program instructions executable in the computing device that, when executed, cause the computing device to:
generate a video stream based on a screen capture;
determine a state of a destination device with respect to a compliance rule of a management service;
before the video stream is transmitted to the destination device, generate the video stream by application of another transformation to the screen capture based at least in part on the state of the destination device;
transmit the video stream to a destination device;
obtain a user-specified modification to an area of the screen capture within the video stream; and
after the video stream is transmitted to the destination device, update the video stream by application of a transformation to the screen capture based at least in part on the user-specified modification.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the transformation obscures the area of the screen capture within the video stream based at least in part on the user-specified modification.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the transformation applies Gaussian blur to the area.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the program instructions further cause the computing device to:
before the video stream is transmitted to the destination device, communicate with the destination device to determine that a state of the destination device does not satisfy a compliance rule of a management service; and
generate the video stream by application of another transformation the screen capture based at least in part on the state of the destination device that does not satisfy the compliance rule.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the program instructions further cause the computing device to:
obtain a user-specified annotation; and
update the video stream to include the user-specified annotation.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the area includes an entirety of the screen capture, and the user-specified modification defines a user-specified area to permit within the video stream.
7. A computer-implemented method for selective screen sharing, comprising:
generating a video stream based on a screen capture;
determining a state of a destination device with respect to a compliance rule of a management service;
before the video stream is transmitted to the destination device, generating the video stream by application of another transformation to the screen capture based at least in part on the state of the destination device;
transmitting the video stream to a destination device;
obtaining a user-specified modification to an area of the screen capture within the video stream; and
after the video stream is transmitted to the destination device, updating the video stream by application of a transformation to the screen capture based at least in part on the user-specified modification.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the transformation obscures the area of the screen capture within the video stream based at least in part on the user-specified modification.
9. The method of claim 7 , wherein the transformation applies Gaussian blur to the area.
10. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:
before the video stream is transmitted to the destination device, communicating with the destination device to determine that a state of the destination device does not satisfy a compliance rule of a management service; and
generating the video stream by application of another transformation the screen capture based at least in part on the state of the destination device that does not satisfy the compliance rule.
11. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:
obtaining a user-specified annotation; and
updating the video stream to include the user-specified annotation.
12. The method of claim 7 , wherein the area includes an entirety of the screen capture, and the user-specified modification defines a user-specified area to permit within the video stream.
13. A non-transitory computer-readable medium embodying program instructions executable in a computing device that, when executed, cause the computing device to:
generate a video stream based on a screen capture;
transmit the video stream to a destination device;
determine a state of a destination device with respect to a compliance rule of a management service;
before the video stream is transmitted to the destination device, generate the video stream by application of another transformation to the screen capture based at least in part on the state of the destination device;
obtain a user-specified modification to an area of the screen capture within the video stream; and
after the video stream is transmitted to the destination device, update the video stream by application of a transformation to the screen capture based at least in part on the user-specified modification.
14. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 13 , wherein the program instructions further cause the computing device to:
obtain a user-specified annotation; and
update the video stream to include the user-specified annotation.
