Is there a way to view the HDMI output of my Proxmox box on any PC connected to my LAN? (alien.top)

I know about KVM IP extenders but that's not what I'm looking for. Proxmox captures the output of any VM and LXC and lets you view them in a web browser. Likewise I'd like to digitize the HDMI output from the Proxmox server box and make it viewable in a browser or app on any device on the LAN.

Does such a thing exist?

you'd have to use a video capture unit such as used by game streamers etc.

But what are you trying to achieve?

Unless there's some of sort of repeating error there's not going to be anything displayed the console. It will simply sit at the login prompt with the MOTD telling you where access the webgui.

There won't be any output from any of the VMs or LXCs

Otherwise you might as well have a SSH shell open.

some of sort of repeating error

That's exactly why I want to do this. I've had some issues and want to be able to check for errors at will from any PC on the LAN and also when not at home.
