the length of texts copying from devices to PC is limited to 4093.

#145 (comment)

nowadays, the big file is not unusual.

what about increasing it to 32M or 64M? or even a whole binary data file like some .so or game data?

could it even detect clipboard changes automatically to avoid to let users need to find out they have to press c-c one time separately?

thanks!

4093 is even unable to copy an Adaway host/DNS plain text file from devices to PC.

If you want to copy a file, you should use adb pull.

At the default bitrate (8Mbits/s, ie 1Mbyte/s), this would be the same size as 32 or 64 seconds of video in the clipboard. That seems huge to me.

Anyway, I guess the Android clipboard has a lower limit anyway: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28100218/is-there-any-characters-bytes-limit-in-the-android-clipboard-android-developme

I am not aware of any solution for this.

the big plain text config file is not unusual.

I feel the windows clipboard can handle big MBs plain text.

Then what about incresing it to 1M or 4M?

so it's able to copy some big logs from devices to PC

Files can be easily copied via adb pull request
only text copy paste has a limitation

This is done by #1465. Please test it and provide feedback :)

Then what about incresing it to 1M or 4M?

I increased the clipboard size form 4k to 256k: clipboard.

After all previous commits for making it possible, the increase is done by 913a9f3. On my computer, beyond 256k, SDL_GetClipboard() returns an empty string.

I implemented these changes above #1465, so shortcuts have changed! (TL;DR: just use LCtrl+c to copy and LCtrl+v to paste).

Feedback welcome :)

Binaries for testing

For windows users, take both scrcpy.exe and scrcpy-server, and replace them in your scrcpy v1.14 release.

For other platforms, take scrcpy-server and build only the client.

I rebased the increase from 4k to 256k on dev and merged, without the content of #1465 (which required more work).
