Finally got a chance to test this software.And I really like it. It gives you a flexibility which has not been available before. The functionality for trimming what to broadcast is excellent. Excellent work Johan!!I put some ideas here:

  • user selectable fps for each window to broadcast. Some windows are OK with low fps, some would defo benefit from higher fps.
  • function for totally removing window border on client, or get the border down to 1 pixel.
  • functionality for duplicating window to broadcast from. So you can cut out two or more images from one window if you want to. That way you can use one computer as a server computer. Cutting unlimited images from this window, and broadcast. Then there will be no fps loss.
  • Function for autostart of clients when computer starts. Maybe a checkbox for this in client for user to select.

Anyway, this software is by far the most interesting for me the last years. This has great potential.Best regardsIvar Hestnes

No, shouldn't be too difficult, I will give it a try.>> Finally got a chance to test this software.>> And I really like it. It gives you a flexibility which has not been available before.

Although there is a bug when starting unframed doesn't hide the inputs initially.>> functionality for duplicating window to broadcast from.

Hi Ivarthanks for your reply. I insert the Computer name as in my network and I tried also to insert the IP number instead of the name. But no connection.I need to open the port on my router?ThanksArnaldo

Arnaldo, are you sure the url is still intact? It should be something like 'net.tcp://localhost:8328/FsxSpy' where you replace localhost with the name of the machine where the server is running.. Also make sure first, that you can ping the server from the client, if that is ok, the router is fine. I don't think a firewall would be an issue here.HTHJohan

Well, this could be a lot of things. The most obvious one being the firewall, but as I said earlier that is very unlikely, assuming:When you first start the server and you are running the firewall, it should have asked whether to allow the server to access the network and made a rule accordingly.You could try:- temporarily turn off the firewall (don't forget to turn it on again!)- run it on the local host first and see if that works for you.Anyway, this certainly looks like a network issue. I'd suggest you find someone nearby that has access to your computer and can help you out.HthJohan
