Overhead Client in browser window on flightsim PC ?

[EmileB 15]

I currently run Overhead Client (for the P3DV4.5 PMDG B737 and PMDG B777) on a networked second desktop PC.  I would like to change this to displaying the overhead panel on my flightsim desktop PC's second monitor instead.

I could run Overhead Client on my flightsim PC (which already runs AviaServer of course) and have already tried this successfully.  Problem is that Overhead Client doesn't save the window size & position so I would need to resize the window each time as I'm currently having to do, which is a bit of a PITA.

Is it possible to have the overhead panels in a browser window, of which I could save the size in a shortcut ?  I couldn't find the port numbers for the PMDG overhead panels in the manual, so couldn't even give it a try 🙄.

Hi Emile,

you can indeed run aviaOverhead in the browser. Have a look at the manual on how to connect.

Checked the manual again but no luck connecting via the browser of the networked PC using http://192.168.1.59 (my flightsim rig has a fixed IP address) or even http://192.168.1.59:32110.  Maybe port 32110 is blocked on the networked PC.  I can work around it, but thanks anyway.

I don't know why you are trying to connect to port 32110.

Let me quote the manual:
