I have setup a SC VNC .exe file that automatically connects to my computer so that I can see a remote desktop. Everything works fine but I want to be able to limit the color depth so that I can cut down on bandwith and make the connection more responsive.
Here is the how I start the viewer:
"c:\program files\ultravnc\vncviewer.exe" /listen 5500 /dsmplugin msrc4plugin.dsm /autoscaling
I tried to re-do the startup options using the flowing
"c:\program files\ultravnc\vncviewer.exe" /listen 5500 /dsmplugin msrc4plugin.dsm /autoscaling /64colors
but it does not change the colors. But I am able to open the connection properties once the connection has been made and change the color depth and the changes are made.
What do I need to do to make the default connection come back with 64 colors?
Thanks.

Trouble limiting colors
Re: Trouble limiting colors
To config the color depth setting in cmdline, you need to include the "-noauto" switch before the color depth switch, so your cmd should be like this:
"c:\program files\ultravnc\vncviewer.exe" /listen 5500 /dsmplugin msrc4plugin.dsm /autoscaling /noauto /64colors
See detail at: UltraVNC Command line Parameters
"c:\program files\ultravnc\vncviewer.exe" /listen 5500 /dsmplugin msrc4plugin.dsm /autoscaling /noauto /64colors
