Support for VirtualHere hardware and software

My controllers appears as XB360 when plugged directly, PS3 through VH

Forums

Hello everyone,

I use VirtualHere server on my android set top box (similar to a shield TV) to tunnel my controllers to my PC because steam link accumulates input lag so I have to restart every so often. I've used it a lot with my G29 wheel and it feels nice and was easy enough to set up.

However I have a hard time with my controllers. I use cheap wireless controllers Snakebyte Gamepad Pro (they connect through a USB dongle).

Moza R5 + Assetto Corsa Competizione = Freeze

Forums

Hello,

First, I want to congratulate you on the amazing work! The software you offer is fantastic!

The issue is that when I use the Moza R5 through VirtualHere, the game freezes at the start of a race. When it’s connected via cable (20 meters), this problem doesn’t occur. Other games like Forza Motorsport 8, Dirt Rally 2.0, etc works perfectly.

I'm using a Pi Zero 2W with a wired connection. The latency is between 1 and 2 milliseconds.

Settings I’ve tried without success include CompressionLimit and ClaimPorts.

Cannot connect anymore to ChromeCast with Google TV 4K

Forums

Hi!
I am using VirtualHere client for Windows (5.7.8) to connect to the Server (latest version) on a ChromeCast with Google TV. It used to work without any problems a few months ago, but since one of the latest updates on my CCwGTV the Client cannot connect to the server anymore. 

Client says: 
2024-11-06 20:21:24 INFO  :Could not connect to 192.168.86.37:7575

While the server responds:

11-06 20:21:25.757 18852 18852 E virtualhere-daemon: Opening local exception: Connection refuse

Upgrading from 4.6.0 to 4.7.0 - devices eject after a few seconds with surprise unbound

Forums

Hello,

I have a Windows 10 computer with vhusbdwin64.exe v4.6.0 installed via the Microsoft Store (big mistake as I now have learned).

Apparently vhusbdwin64 was upgraded automatically to v4.7.0 (or someone else manually upgraded without my knowledge).

Since then we have SUPRISE UNBOUND messages when we try to use most devices connected to the Windows computer.

Is there a way to monitor the activity status of USB devices?

Forums

Is there a way to monitor the status of USB devices to identify users who are connected to a device but are not actively using it? If these users can be identified, the administrator can disconnect them to save resources. For instance, some USB dongles may be occupied for extended periods without actual use by the users connected to them, leading to wastage.

How to get the wired keyboard mouse recognized by Android 10 and above OS?

PICO4 VR uses Android 10 or higher OS, but it works because it uses a modified OS. For Android smartphones, is there a way to bypass the wired keyboard and mouse restrictions? I'm currently using a rooted Android 14 tablet.

WiFi USB Unable to connect to network

Forums

I'm using a Raspberry Pi 1 B+ with a USB WiFi adapter. The device connects to the network normally right after installation. My intention is to use this device to connect to the network, not to share it with clients. The Windows client can detect the USB devices connected on the server side, including the USB WiFi adapter, until I restart the Raspberry Pi. After the restart, the USB WiFi adapter stops working. I tried adding 'IgnoredDevices' to the config.ini file, but the issue persists.

Microsoft Teams and VirtualHere

Forums

Dear community,

I would like to use Microsoft Teams on a remote PC (which is a VMWare Workstation VM) with the following devices:

  • Jabra Speak 410
  • Lenovo MC60 Camera

I set up VirtualHere Server on a PC having devices attached and a client on a VM*) having Teams installed.

The VM can see both devices, they are present in the VirtualHere Client and also in Device Manager of the VM. But Microsoft Teams cannot transmit video through the webcam.

If I start the "Camera" app on the VM, the screen remains blank, though the webcam's led lighting.

Apple SuperDrive on MacBook with Apple Silicon

Forums

Hey there,

i use virtualhere all the time and it works flawlessly. But when i connect to my macmini with Apples SuperDrive connected, my Macbook wont connect due to its limitations with adequate power distribution, despite the macmini providing the power. Thats the negativ on using devices like they were physically connected...

Is there any procedure to trick my macbook into thinking the SuperDrive gets enough power?

Has anyone found a solution?

Thank you in advance!

Getting COM Ports in client list is inconsistent across machines

Forums

Love your software, but we are having an issue and really need some help. 

We are forwarding a device from one machine to another using your software.  

The device we are forwarding is a USB device but uses a USB to serial driver, so the device shows up in windows under LPT and Ports with a COM Port number. 

We have the device drivers installed on both the client and server side. 

When we “use” the device in VHUI64.exe, we see the COM port and the Server Machine name.
