> I'll only be impressed when an app like this can work through a corporate
firewall

@Idle: When I said that, I didn't mean your app is no good. I just meant it's
not an app for me because I wouldn't be able to use it. If you could make it
work through a locked-down work environment, then I'd be very impressed.

That's all I meant; I didn't mean it to be a slight on your work here. :)
I compile using 5.31 (x86) on Win 7 Ultimate (64-bit).

Hi Terry
Probably my ignorance, but I have not been able to transfer a file. A step by step instruction might help.
Transferring a file is done by drag and drop, it's only one way at the moment from viewer to client and limited to a single file at a time. Also you have to stop using the mouse while transferring or it'll take even longer to send as it does it in the background to the input which takes priority.

To send a file simply drag it onto the viewer and it should send.
Veras will show the progress.

note I just discovered that in windows 7 drag and drop doesn't work when Vere is running as administrator, I don't know if this has the same behavior on Vista so maybe this is why its not sending
Is it limited to IP Address access? Not possible ot enter a URL?
Yes it as at the moment - that's a nice suggestion though will look into it
The listening viewer "invites" the remote end to access it. The listening viewer has no way to reject access? What if a second access is attempted? Will the viewer accept it too?
If you run it with a password then it won't enable any other client to connect. A second attempt will simply result in the viewer saying hello.
This seems reversed to me. The listening viewer should wait for an invitation to view the remote, have the ability to accept or reject the invitation. The session then controlled and initiated by the user willing to allow his system to be viewed/controlled.


I'll add a accept and reject mechanism soon.

@PB I guessed that's what you meant. :lol:

I do have plans to do a remote access version though I'm not sure when I'll start on it, so will let you know when it's underway.

Updated Veo 1.0.5

Added options for either Polled update or Event driven update
Polled mode sends updates as fast as it can continuously
Event driven is activated by input and will drop to idle after half a second once no more input is pending.

Additionally added two options for compression LAN and WAN
LAN a low compression option achieves ~15:1 in the data stream
WAN high compression option achieves ~30:1 in the data stream

Next update will add partial updates rather than the whole frame to improve usability over adsl
and add auto discover and connect within the LAN if your using Veo as KVM.

Hi, idle, I tested your pgm. and want to give you some feedback.

Basically it is working fine, and in some circumstances it has some advantages to have the server on the viewer side, unlike the vnc programs. Little requirements on the viewed side.

However I had some of trouble with virus scanners, did you compress the exe with PureUPX? That might restict the usage for some clients.

Onother point is, as I have a dyndns address I would prefer to allow the entry of an URL, not the IP address only.

Third point is that the length of the password needs to do cut&paste, which might be a problem when you have a pc dummy on the other side that you want to assist. I would prefer to have at least the option to use a simple password, identical on both sides.

Last point: It should be possible to activate Alt-Ctrl-Del on the viewed machine, at least to access the tast manager. Alt-Ctrl-End is used normally on the viewer side for this purpose.

Ciao

yes it uses a packer, so it could trigger a lazy virus scanner. Which AV picked it up, so I can report it.

Yes you can use a plain password, if however you need to resolve your IP the password will be automatically strengthened, So you will have to close and restart Vere and re enter your password, then you're friend can enter the plain password on their end.

Ok will add ctrl alt end to shell task manager, in the mean time you can simply click start->run and enter "taskmgr"

I will look into the url connection.

Veo Remote 1.0.8

Merged Wan & Lan modes removing a bottle neck.

Increased Max speeds now up to ~60 FPS over Lan.
Internet speeds are limited to the connection latency ~15-20 FPS

Added Link Accelerator (persistent cache)
lowers bandwidth utilization and increases relative speed with increased stream compression up to 100:1 being achievable, the only draw back you can't record the screen when the cache is active.
The cache is global and will work with any connections though when you establish a connection with the cache active it has to do a synchronization with the client which could take up to 2Mb for a 500mb cache.

update pending
