Why is it required to install the "Eumus Design Sound Cards & Media Devices" during the InstaShare installation process?
"Eumus Design Sound Cards & Media Devices" is a virtual audio card. As there are too many audio cards on the market with support for different Windows versions (Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, and even older versions), in order to avoid compatibility issues with InstaShare, installing a virtual audio driver can solve any audio issues that you may experience while using InstaShare.
Can InstaShare work between different subnets, VLANs, and SSIDs?
Yes, InstaShare can work between different subnets, VLANs, and SSIDs.
It is usually recommended to connect both devices to the same SSID initially because you assume they will be placed on the same subnet and generally do not have other network variables that prevent casting. Once we confirm this setup works, you can then try moving to different SSIDs.
If you have 2 devices on different subnets\VLANs you can get InstaShare to communicate by making sure that multicast traffic is forwarding between the VLAN interfaces.
If you have 2 different SSIDs that place the devices on the same subnet\VLAN, then they should be able to cast to each other unless you have an SSID-specific rule like client isolation enabled, as that may be preventing traffic from reaching each device. Another SSID-specific setting that may cause issues is filtering certain broadcast traffic.

The connection code for InstaShare is 6 digits but my Mac OS only asked me to enter 4 digits. How can I resolve this inconsistency?
Is there any recommended bandwidth requirement when using InstaShare or InstaShare 2 for a smooth casting experience?

Why does the device screen turn black when Netflix video is played through InstaShare or HDMI connection from a laptop or Macbook?
This problem is related to HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) issues.
Netflix does not allow video content to be played though external monitors.
Therefore users won’t be able to view video content via external displays through HDMI or InstaShare mirroring. Learn more

Why does my interactive flat panel (IFP) show white stripes onscreen or crash repeatedly when I try to enable iMirror via InstaShare from my iPhone or iPad?
The issue typically occurs due to an out of date iOS version on your iPhone or iPad. Make sure your device runs the latest version of iOS available. For iOS 12 and later, you need to use InstaShare app version 1.5.0 or later to resolve striping and crash issues.
