Ditto is a diverse screen mirroring and digital signage solution that works across multiple platforms. This page explains network and platform-specific requirements.
Receiver requirements
Ditto supports a number of receivers including Windows computers, Apple TVs and Chromecasts.
Ditto Windows Receiver
Windows 10 is required. Windows 10 machines satisfy most hardware demands.
For heavier usage such as 4K video digital signage or to screen mirror multiple devices simultaneously, we recommend more robust Windows hardware:
- Intel 6th gen i5 processor or greater
- 4GB+ memory
- 5 GB or more of free disk space
Ditto tvOS Receiver
Apple TV HD (tvOS 11 and later)
Apple TV 4K (tvOS 11 and later)
