Research direction

Start by reviewing Sunshine PR #2490, which contains work already started for display selection, then inspect the related UI and device-selection entry points in the Sunshine repository. The feature is done when the UI lists available display and audio devices in dropdown menus so users no longer need to parse the log file.
