RealVNC embedded - unable to connect to host

RealVNC embedded - unable to connect to host

avatar

Downloaded the latest free version of RealVNC - just the viewer.
Installed it and set the path in RDM.

Created new VNC session set to embedded - get the above error.

Using the new version 6 of RDM

Usually I use TightVNC and that works well in external mode and so do RealVNC - but I thought at least RealVNC would work embedded?

Any ideas?

Hi,
We dont use any VNCViewer for the embedded mode. It's a native component and to be honest, it's not great. But we are nearly done creating and embedded UltraVNC, we will release an add-on this week (I hope). Let me know if you want to give it a try.

Sounds good with the add-on - update us when it's ready :)

Hi,
You can try the beta release here, it's not possible to use the add-on manager to install it, you must unzip it in the Remote Desktop Manager installation folder.

http://remotedesktopmanager.com/download/AddOn/UltraVNC0.9.0.0.zip

Remember, this add-on will only work with the version 6.0 or better

Thanks. This fixed my problem with VNC and embedded screens.
When the add-on get released (out of beta) would i have to uninstall it from my manager or can I just update it from the add-on manager screen?
:cool:

Hi,
We will release the update next week and it will be built in in the default VNC configuration. You will still need to install the add-on but it will appear in the VNC application combo box.
