Description

Describe the problem you confuse

Currently, when mirroring the device, there is no reliable way to forward the device's internal audio directly to the computer (especially for devices running Android 10 or lower). To hear the sound, I still have to turn on the phone's external speaker or plug headphones directly into the phone.

Proposed Solution: Please consider integrating or adding support for sndcpy (Sound Copy) alongside the video mirroring.

Benefits: Adding sndcpy would route the phone's audio directly to the PC's audio output. This provides a truly seamless experience, allowing users to listen to the phone's sound through their computer speakers or PC headphones without needing to interact with the phone's physical audio hardware at all.

Thank you for considering this feature!

Contributor guide

Research direction
Research how sndcpy achieves audio forwarding and how scrcpy integrates audio features. Explore the escrcpy codebase to find the main video mirroring logic and identify where audio forwarding could be added. Look for existing audio related code or external process handling in the project.
