What do i need to get?

Post by carrot »

Okay, here is what I want to do.
Make a SC using either this or this. (they both look like they do the same thing) that, upon opening the exe, will silently install the video mirror driver (i heard that it increases your speed by a huge amount), and then run the SC program.
Right now, I have only used the second one, but i didn't get the video mirror driver installed, so it went REALLY slow. couldn't do anything really.
I have the UltraVNC Viewer (Listen Mode) running, but I think i might need the UltraVNC server (whats the difference?)
Also, I have heard of the video hook driver. What is it? Does it also increase the speed on top of the video mirror driver?

sorry about all these noob questions....
and thanks in advance for answering them!

video hook driver is not recommanded for short time by time
video hook driver is recommand for long usage or many time usage on same customer computer

the main reason, video hook need installed first and require some condition for work (8 or 16 or 32 bit colors accepted) this not the idea of SingleClick

winvnc video hook driver = video mirror driver

for faster responsive, use tabbed_vncviewer.exe -listen

Sorry, I didn't understand that very well....

All I got was that I should use the Video Mirror Driver, not the video hook driver.

So does that mean that if I install the Video mirror driver on my own machine, it will work really fast with no driver install on the client computer?

Video mirror driver is intended only for the vnc server aka winvnc aka SingleClick

vncviewer won't use it.
