Disk Immediately Unmounts After Mac Sleeps

Forums

Hello,

So I have my Raspberry Pi as the server and running the client on my MacBook. Everything works fantastic with the software however when my Mac is put to sleep it ejects the disk. I have tried my hand at Google-fu (which is how I came across this forum) and I've looked at the config.ini file but I wasn't clear on if there was a certain value I could add server-side that would force the disk to remain connected.

Any assisted would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Installation of server to start on boot (Ubuntu, Odroid)

Forums

I want the VH server to start automatically after boot on Odroid running Ubuntu.
I followed the Linux OEM_FAQ https://www.virtualhere.com/oem_faq "How to i start VirtualHere when my device boots?", For init.d based systems (Raspberry pi, Ubuntu...)
except that I use the optimized server version vhusbdarm64a53 which runs on Odroid. In the file vhusbdpin I have edited the NAME to match the server's filename.
It worked when I started the server manually but not after the above changes - client finds no server.
License is ok.

Problem with ShieldTV Server / Win10 Client - no connection

Forums

Hi!

I run this setup for some years now, but honestly I don't use it very often so I can't exactly say when it stopped working. Since I set everything both - my Win PC and the ShieldTV got updated quite often.
Anyway - the client doesn't recognize the server on the shield tv. Never happened before, not on AndroidTV and not on the Steam Link I had before that this happened...

Any ideas?

Best regards

OnServerRename event not triggering in CloudHub 3.7.1 - no longer a free feature?

Forums

After some clarification a little while back ( https://www.virtualhere.com/content/using-onserverrename-event ) I had been using the script from that thread just fine with CloudHub firmware 3.6.7 on Raspberry Pi 0W.

However upon setting up a 3.7.1 install I find that the script does not seem to trigger. Looking at the logs I find this line:

Thu Aug 23 20:51:05 2018 user.err vhusbdchpi0w[491]: Must purchase this server to use onServerRename!

Android Server SSL

Forums

Hey Michael! I’ve been using the VirtualHere Android server for while now and liked your product so much that I decided to purchase a license a couple of weeks ago. I am using it mainly for gaming peripherals and sometimes also connect a keyboard that otherwise can’t be set to the correct layout thanks to Google’s decision not to support setting it in Android TV. If possible, I’d like to enable SSL on the (non-rooted) server as sending everything over the net in plain text is probably not a great idea when it comes to keyboard input.

CLI

Forums

I have the Client running on Linux. Unclear by the documentation where from the shell prompt I might find the actual contents of the USB DVD drive I have successfully connected to.
