Client disconnects

Forums

Hi,

I installed VirtualHere on Windows and love it. Thank you for making it.

I can share my Samsung USB Scanner via VirtualHere server and have clients scan with it. A while after a client connects, it disconnects. This is undesirable for me. I assume this is the "2016-11-23 15:00:06 INFO :Connection 1 successfully removed (reason:timeout)" line in the server log. I want the client to stay connected permanently.

Ant+ Issue

Forums

Hello,

I am attempting to use an Ant+ device. The client, whilst it can see the device as "ANT USB-m Stick" when used provides the error 'There was a error using the device"

The log from the server provides the following data:

Automating server start (Rpi3)

Forums

For a unix/Raspberry noob who has just succeeded in getting the VH server running on a Rpi3/Jessie 8.0, how does one go about automating starting the server daemon in background mode when starting the pi and elegantly shutting it down when quitting?

Scripting suggestions are requested to be detailed, please. I can copy & paste. (c;

Thanks,

XBoxOne Wired Controller

Forums

Hello,

I was looking forward to using VirtualHere to share various USB devices.
It worked great for sharing keyboard and mouse.
Then I tried to share my Xbox One controller, and it doesn't work: the virtualhere server simply crash when I attempt
to claim the device from a client.

I've found a post claiming that the xbox one controller doesn't work with a windows server. However, I've tried with
my Libreelec Wetek Hub device (running kernel 3.14 so maybe a bit old) and the result is the same: the server
process simply crash with segmentation fault.

Install Windows service with user's credentials as logon account

Forums

Is there a way to set the logon account credentials when installing the Windows client service? Right now, if I install the service with vhui64.exe -b, it makes the logon account Local System. This makes it so users that use a device from this client show up as "SYSTEM", instead of their username. Also, if multiple people are using a Windows service client, the ClientIdMap parameter won't work because they will all have the same name (SYSTEM). I've tried using RunAs to make sure vhui64.exe was running as the current user, but it still makes the client show up as SYSTEM.

How do i make the usb location constant

Forums

I am trying to make the location of shared usb devices constant.
When i connect Device A it is in Port_#0001.Hub_#0001 as reported by device manager, and when i plug in Device B in a different port it is reported as Port_#0002.Hub_#0001 , so far so good, but when i unplug Device A then i unplug Device B and plus it back into same port it is reported as Port_#0001.Hub_#0001.

I want the location to be related to the port at which the device is connected to not the order at which it is bound by.

Thanks in advance.

Decrease search delay

Forums

When the server isn't running and the client set to not auto detect and with ip set in manual hubs, the client reports that the server cannot be connected to every 10 sec, so if the server comes online it may take up to 10 sec for the client to connect to it.

How do i decrease this delay and what is the lowest possible (1 sec would be Perfect)

Thanks in advance.

VHHCD unknown device in windows 10

Forums

Hi

I am using VirtualHere for some time now. I run the latest client as a service. I recently noticed that there is an unknown device in the device manager. My OS is Windows 10 x64.

Everything seems to run normal, apart from this anomaly. Should I be worried? I think there should not be an unknown device.
