UltraVNC

Hi,

Is it possible to use windows key in windows 10 from vncviewer?

I wish to use some shortcut combinations like https://i.ibb.co/740xYMk/image.png Windows key + D , to clear windows on screen and see desktop background directly however vncviewer does not pass the windows key to server.
I can do ...

Hi Ben,

Uvnc is fine, it was my bad...
Eventhough I had configured for some many years with win10 things began to work unexpectedly.
I had a raspberry pi dhcp server , and had defined different hostnames in dhcp.conf (like hostname , hostname- for same machine) when ip was given to notebooks ...

Hi Rudi,

Sorry for late reply.
I have great news, it worked.
No more crashes when clipboard copying.
I will keep the crash test exe running so if there is any more other types of crashes you will receive them.

Thanks for your great help.

Hi Rudi,

I see, I can test it when you make the new test file.
I am willing to help.

Also vncviewer stays in memory after crashes or disconnects. Sometimes I see 3-4 vncviewer just sitting in memory.
Is it possible to find the cause also?

Thanks,
Burzek

Hi Rudi,

The uvnc 1.2.2.4 64 bit works without any problems.

The cpu is AMD Athlon II X2 240 processor.
Here is the cpu-z screenshot.

Hi,

I sent you some reports. First ones are because of viewer settings was ZRLE with 8 colors. It kept crashing the server.
last 2 reports should be because of clipbard problem.

I will load it to more pc to report other crash types.

Thanks,

Hi Rudi,

Still on many pc , I am still experiencing vnc viewer freeze/disconnect on first connection to the uvnc server.
The winvnc crashes and spawns again , causing vnc viewer to disconnect .
Even the latest version 1.3.2a did not solve this problem.
Sometime it happens some time it does not.

Hi Rudi,

I have opened another ticket , but saw that there is another person having the same problem.

Is it possible to make a debug version so that, when we experience the problem , you can collect enough information to see what is wrong?

Hi Rudi,

Just an update , sometimes I still get freezes or disconnection on first connection. However, compared to 1.2.4.0 viewer this is decreased significantly.
I also noticed I have similar problem when connecting to a raspberry pi3 running x11vnc: 0.9.13 , a very old build but still having ...

Hi Rudi,

Good news, I have tried vnc viewer 1.3.0 , without changing 1.2.4.0 servers, and the vncviewer does not crash anymore.
Just , it still can stay in memory if the connection is broken. However compared to 1.2.4.0 viewer, 1.3.0 viewer is great.
1.2.4.0 viewer kept crashing even with changing ...

Hi,

Rarely when connecting to a windows 10 running v 1.2.4.0 uvncserver , from a uvnc viewer on a slow network , when the connection is closed without receiving first screenshot, the vncserver enters a different state.
Next viewer connections after password verification receives a complete blue ...

Hi,

I also have the same problem.
Trying to connect from w10 x64 uvnc 1.2.1.7 to w7 x64 uvnc 1.2.1.6, the connection sometimes stable goes for 7-8 minutes without any problems.
Sometimes, after 30 seconds , it disconnects and connects 1-2 times.
Never that such a problem with 1.2.1.6 , why it keeps ...

However, I was able to use ultravnc with passwords longer than 8 characters. I really did.
I will look into this more because ultravnc was supporting longer passwords, I will try to find after which version this problem came to happen.
I have never used encryption plugin , so the support was ...

Hi,

Regarding version 1.2.1.0, it seems that I have come to a problem with the vnc passworld length.

I had a user with a 9 character password length, I do not remember which version he was using before I upgraded it to version 1.2.1.0.
Now, whenever I try to connect the user, I can not enter more ...

Hi,

I tried to solve this problem by a workaround , restarting uvnc service.

However, running W7 64-bit pro , I happen to see that even the service has a problem with W7.
Added a cmd file to task schedule to restart service every hour.
It just does not restart or something happens and I can not ...

Hi,

This is happening randomly. It needs to be investigated in detail.

Please check for this bug.

Hi,

This is happening in non standard windows software , mostly I guess software written in Linux and ported to windows , or used linux toolkits to draw the screen and characters.

Normally when vnc server is in a Win7 machine , if the vncviewer uses "Japanese keyboard" option , you send all ...

Both have English windows but Turkish keyboard layout.
