This adds the documentations bits, most, if not all, extracted from the original wayland-ivi-plugins repository. It describes the waltham-transmiter-plugin, and the receiver side, how to configure and run them. It also removes any ivi-shell and with it, any menton about LayoutManagerControls.

+
+## How to build waltham-transmitter-plugin
+
+1. Go to AGL build folder and configure your environment. Add
+'agl-weston-waltham-remoting' as distro feature.
+
+```
+ $ cd $AGL_TOP
+ $ source meta-agl/scripts/aglsetup.sh -f -b ${MACHINE_TYPE} [additional_distro_features] agl-weston-waltham-remoting
+```
+
+2. Build agl-demo-platform by using bitbake.
+
+3. Clone/download the waltham-transmitter-plugin on your own and build
+locally using the build system provided. See README.md file for more
+information.
+
+## How to configure weston.ini and GStreamer pipeline
+
+### weston.ini
+
+Add output name, host IP address, port number, and mode key under
+'[transmitter-output]' section.
+You can speficy multiple [transmitter-output] with different output-name.
+
+```
+/* Example_weston.ini - single transmitter-output */
+ [transmitter-output]
+ name=transmitter-1
+ mode=640x720@30
+ host=192.168.20.99
+ port=5005
+ agl-shell-app-id=<APP_ID>
+```
+
+### GStreamer pipeline
+
+You can use GStreamer pipeline as you want. Here are some examples.
+
+```
+
+/* General pipeline which does not use any HW encoder */
+ appsrc name=src ! videoconvert ! video/x-raw,format=I420 ! jpegenc ! \
+ rtpjpegpay ! udpsink name=sink host=YOUR_RECIEVER_IP \
+ port=YOUR_RECIEVER_PORT sync=false async=false
+
+/* pipeline to use Intel's HW encoder */
+ appsrc name=src ! videoconvert ! video/x-raw,format=I420 ! \
+ mfxh264enc bitrate=3000000 rate-control=1 ! rtph264pay config-interval=1 ! \
+ udpsink name=sink host=YOUR_RECIEVER_IP port=YOUR_RECIEVER_PORT \
+ sync=false async=false
+
+/* pipeline to use Rcar's HW encoder */
+ appsrc name=src ! videoconvert ! video/x-raw,format=I420 ! \
+ omxh264enc bitrate=3000000 control-rate=2 ! rtph264pay ! \
+ udpsink name=sink host=YOUR_RECIEVER_IP port=YOUR_RECIEVER_PORT \
+ sync=false async=false
+
+```
+
+## Connection Establishment
+
+1. Connect two boards over ethernet.
+2. Assign IP to both boards.
+```Example:
+ transmitter IP: 192.168.2.51
+ waltham-receiver IP: 192.168.2.52
+```
+3. Check if the simple ping works
+```
+ $ ping 192.168.2.52 (you can also ping vice versa)
+```
+
+## Typical issues & Tips
+
+### help functions
+You can find the help information of LayerManagerControl command by using
+
+```
+$ LayerManagerControl help
+```
+
+### waltham-transmitter and waltham-receiver doesn't not communicate
+
+1. Please check ethernet connection. If you assign 192.168.2.51 and
+ 192.168.2.52 for waltham-transmitter and waltham-receiver, you shall ping
+ vice versa.
+
+```
+/* At waltham-transmitter side */
+ $ ping 192.168.2.52
+
+/* At waltham-receiver side */
+ $ ping 192.168.2.51
+```
+
+2. Make sure that IP address specified in the weston.ini under
+ [transmitter-output] matches the waltham-receiver IP address.
+
+3. Make sure that IP address in pipeline.cfg on the transmitter side match the
+ waltham-receiver's IP address.
