I‘m thinking about an app on the watch, that acts as an airplay (video) receiver, so I can stream and watch videos on my wrist while cooking
Sadly the shairplay library only supports audio so that’s the best that I can do without using a different implementation

This is cool, but like the other comment said I think it would be prudent to mention in the README that this uses the Airstream project for the AirPlay implementation: https://github.com/qasim/Airstream
I thought this was a new Airplay implementation from the way it was described, but then I looked at the source code and realized there wasn’t much there. Nothing wrong with wrapping a library, but it’s nice to mention the technologies used and set expectations.
I’ve fixed the readme to add a link to airstream

I wouldn't think so, since it's not AirPlay 2.
It isn’t, but AirPlay 2 doesn’t have CD quality audio it’s compressed aac

I made AirAP because I wanted a simple way to play sound from my Mac Mini when my speaker broke. But it’s got a ton of other uses too, like testing how audio sounds like on different devices, or repurposing old wired speakers.
This was incredibly fun to make - can’t wait for you all to see it!
