macOS complains about thumb drive ejection

Forums

Hi,

i use M1 macs with virtualhere (client and server) and every time i connect to a thumb drive with one of my clients, macOS (on the server) is not happy about it because it wasnt unmounted properly. Is there any way to unmount devices before they're grabbed by the client? Wouldn't it be useful to implement this feature as  default in future releases of virtualhere?

 

Thank you in advance!

Combining USB BULK data with network latency

Forums

Greetings,

I'm currently evaluating VirtualHere as a solution that allows to remotely connect via network a PC to a USB CDC device, but I'm experiencing a problem when the device is continuously transmitting data to the PC with an interval that is lower than the network latency between the PC and the device:
I was expecting VirtualHere to combine the USB bulk data received in the network latency timeframe but this is only occurring after precisely 25 bulk data packets coming from the device.

I've tried to represent the situation using a sequence diagram here: 

GL-AR300M16 advanced configuration

Forums

Hello,

I have installed the virtualhere server on a GL-AR300M16 and it has been really simple to setup and get it to work.

There are a few settings I would like to change on the GL-AR300M16. I have looked on the forum but I haven't found any answers:

-Is it possible to change the Glinet's IP adress and IP adress range for DHCP server?

-Is it possible to disable the DHCP server all together?

-Is it possible to use the ethernet WAN port as a lan port?

Thanks in advance,

Thomas

Synology - update VirtuaHere to 4.6.6.-1466 USBs stay connected and locked even after disconnecting client

Forums

Hi Michael, 
Running Synology DS216j with DSM 7.1.1. After the last update VirtuaHere to 4.6.6.-1466, USB dongles and sticks stay connected even after disconnecting client. When I forget disconnect in VirtualHere panel manually USB before switching off the client, I am not able to connect it anymore, even with the same client. I have to pull out the USB dongle from the Synology and put it back. Before the update the connections were released automatically, without problems.

Remote access iPad between two Mac machines

Forums

Hello,

I have two Mac machines (macOS 15.0) running on the same LAN.

I connected my iPad (iOS 17.6.1) to one Mac machine and ran the Virtual Here server on it.

I then ran the Virtual Here client on the other Mac machine. I can see the iPad listed on the Virtual Here client, but after using it, I still cannot see the iPad on the macOS Finder.

Have I missed a step in the process?

Thanks!

Using authorization and starting the service

Forums

Hello. Thank you for the convenient and simple program, but during the setup process some questions arose that I couldn’t figure out on my own

1. Is it possible in Windows to use authorization using two passwords for two different devices via a bat file, without using python, powershell and others?

2. When running the program as a service, Windows does not process the auth.bat authorization file. When the service is disabled and started manually, the authorization file is used and connections are made according to the parameters entered in it

CP210x Silicon Labs device does not work on the Windows machine again...

Forums

Dear all,

I have been succesfully using Virtualhere Server/Client on two Windows_10 machines since September 2022. Three FTDIChip COM ports and one Silicon Labs device (with CP210x Universal Windows Driver) generating two COM ports. I have been using Silicon Labs drivers on both Windows_10 machines with no problem for two years.

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:
