Our ISD wants to disable Google Cast on AirServer. I have found the plist located at Library/Preferences/com.pratikkumar.airserver-mac.plist. I am attempting a defaults write to simply change this key like so: defaults write com.pratikkumar.airserver-mac.plist 'EnableGoogleCast' false. Simple, right?
If you look back at the plist and uncheck the box via GUI, it adds the same key that my script does. I have even rebooted figuring it would take effect afterwards, but no dice. I am missing something small I'm sure, but I don't know what. Any ideas?

Updated to IOS 7 and now I am having mirroring issues with AirServer. I have been using AirServer for approximately 6 weeks teaching in a 7th grade Math classroom. I connect and disconnect multiple times per class period and never had a problem until I updated my iPad to IOS 7 last week. Now, after 3 or 4 connect/disconnects, the next time I attempt to connect, it will not mirror the iPad. I have to hard reset the iPad to get it to work again. The iPad appears to be connected but everything on the iPad slows down considerably and AirPlay does not start on the computer. I reproduced the same exact problem on an iPad Mini that also has been updated to IOS 7. Also, I have the latest version of AirServer on the computer. I had absolutely no connectivity problems prior to upgrading to IOS 7. Thanks for any help you can provide.
I also have this problem, and I'm trying to use it in the classroom, which has been mostly a failure because of the mirroring bug. I use mirroring with my iPad 3 running iOS 7 and my Macbook Pro, which has been successfully projected onto the screen two or three times before nothing began happening at all.
I only discovered Air Server yesterday and was very confused as the iPhone 4S with IOS 7 worked consistently but the iPad 3 running IOS 7 fails as per the Airplay bug symptoms after the initial few connections. Hopefully this could be resolved soon as it is a very useful function of IOS.
We are having the same problem at our school. This is our first year using iPads with students and it is very important for teachers to be able to display the iPad screen to the whole class on the projector. We have tried Apple TV and AirServer, but this iOS bug is making the display feature totally unrealiable. We are waiting for Apple to develop a fix.
I am also having the same problem with iPad 2 wifi (ios7) and airserver. Cannot mirror the iPads at all. Have only just got airserver and can see how fantastic it would be in my classroom, if only it worked.
My iPad 4 to freeze after 3-4 mirroring sessions. This happens when mirroring to AirServer or an Apple TV. Restarting the iPad is the only way to fix this issue. With a classroom full of students. Not fun!
To make matters worse, iOS 7 automatically drops the mirroring connection, 45 seconds after the iPad auto-locks, forcing the user to re-establish AirPlay mirroring multiple times during a presentation, and eventually freezing up the mirroring component.
The new iOS 7 has a bug which does not allow smooth mirroring using AirServer. The connection drops out; and at times it duplicates the iPad window on the Macbook, as though there are two displays being shown. It is very frustrating and hopefully can be addressed by Apple and AirServer very soon. Our school relies on AirServer a lot and this bug has rendered it virtually useless.
At work, when presenting on screens or projectors in meeting rooms, we've recently started connecting to an "airserver". This works by simply connecting to a new Wi-Fi network called "Airserver [meetingroomname]". Apparently, this works fine on both Windows and Mac without the need for installing other software, but on my Ubuntu, I see a millisecond glimpse of an "Enter password"-dialog, and then - nothing.
