[BUG] Remote Blank Monitor on Win8

Post by Alex »

Toggle Remote Input and Remote Blank Monitor doesn't work on Windows8 properly.

I have installed UltraVNC server on Win8 x64 and client (viewer) on Win7 x64
1. The option 'Enable Blank Monitor on Viewer Request' has no effect on server mashine, all remains not blanked if I toggle correspondent button on viewer site.

2. Additional option 'Enable Alpha-Blending Monitor Blanking' causes the effect that both machines, client and remote get stuck with default 'eye' image(background.bmp) in full screen.

Enabling the 'Remove Aero' option does not help.

I've been suffering the same bug in Windows 8. When I click on Blank Monitor button, both my customer and me watch the background.bmp. It also occurs with previous versions of Uvnc. Any solution? Thanks in advance.
