Support

 I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab S5E with Android 11 on it. I connect an xbox controller and a mouse to it through a usb hub and use virtualhere to to control my windows 11 pc.

 The last time I did this was about a year ago and it worked just fine. Now I am trying to do it again and for some reason the xbox controller will not work on my PC. It shows up in the usb hub under the virtualhere pc client and it says it is using the device, but it does not actually connect it to windows. The mouse still works just fine.

Not sure whats wrong, did something change?

Hi, just purchased licence to get my fanatec steering wheel (connected and working) along with the diy handbrake, logitech gear shifter and even potentially webcam working.

however, no matter what device I plug in first, the android hub only shows the fanatec wheel.

the devices are powered up as I can see light on handbrake, I've used a powered hub inline before the 4 port and also enabled powered host mode on device.

Hi.

I want to bind a mouse to the server, but only thing thats happening is that i can use the mouse on the android server device itself.

No questioning if virtualhere should handle it. 3dconnexion spacemouse, arduino, fritz wlan usb stick...  All that works.  

Didnt try a keyboard yet. 

Thanks

I am testing out the virtualhere software on a raspberry pi <running pi version of ubuntu 22.04>. I have a dozen usb sticks (and a couple usb hubs to chain) which I am testing with as our end-application will need many usb devices connected to a single linux client. It seems to be working well, except that I run into the following error message in the "System Messages" window when I try to connect to more than 8 usb sticks:

Hi,

this used to work fine for years now, but now whenever I plug in Xbox wireless dongle into the Steamlink, there is a hard crash on my Windows10 machine connected via Virtualhere.

I tried reinstalling the driver, the Virtualhere (via Steam) server etc. nothing helped.

Some entries I'm seing in the Windows event log around the time of the crash are:

I am connecting USB microphone and if server is started under Windows then it works great (except the fact that if I stop the server before client disconnects then Windows is BSOD) but overall it is working fine.

If I start on linux based router then I can connect from client, device is in use but apps are giving me an error that audio path is suspended so I guess some important packets are not reaching the client.

I did a log but it is still unclear what is going on

I'm using a Raspberry Zero W as server. Works great.

I would like to add a Display Hat showing the same information about connected devices as the client shows.

Is there an API that can be used for a phyton script talking to the display getting the connected device data info?

I've come back again to virualhere after the big sur era, now running Monterey on my Macs I can again connect to the PI server. hooray.

I'm running 4.1.8 and it seems to connect to the Mac ok and I can turn on and off the USB devices (ILOK and thumb drive in this case) but noticed I'm way behind on updates.

Hi,

My apologies if this has been explicitly asked before (and Multiple Simultaneous Devices | VirtualHere may be an answer) but I wanted to know if what I would like to do is supported/possible before I purchase extra hardware to try? Your software may be the solution to extreme frustration here. Sorry if it's a bit of a confusing question but I'll try to elaborate....

Short version

We have a powerful workstation that multiple users login to remotely to do their work. We are aware that VirtualHere is unable to share the same device to multiple users at the same time. This post is not about simultaneous use. We planned to take turns when the USB device is needed. We have VirtualHere running as a service under LocalSystem and using a config file next to the exe located on the root of C:\. The first user to log into the system can access the service using the client and use the USB device without issue.
