UltraVNC SC - speed up with other options?

Post by fischli75 »

Hi,
I use the tool "UltraVNC SC". I think it works good. But I also think, it could be much faster. Are there any other hidden options, for example to restrict numbers of colors of display? I've found options in vncviewer and in ultravncsc, when it is started. But I haven't found any option, which I can submit automaticaly for encoding within any ultravncsc.exe-file.
thanks

On connection the server get's his info from the viewer.
It's the viewer that's responsible for encoder and color depth

ok, thanks.
But when I activate or deactivate some options and recall the tool again, all settings were reseted to default - and not to my own settings.
Where / How can I save the settings of the viewer?
How can I set "low accuracy" as default in ultravnc sc?

Viewer:
On the first screen, selecting auto always reset the options.
Auto and select options is not possible.

You need to select Lan,....modem.
Now you can use the options without being reset to auto.

That is, what I have tried!
I've choosen "modem" or "medium" and closed the window. When I restart the viewer (version 1.0.1) and look into the properties, there are the defaults.
???
In the viewer I don't enter any connection, it is in listen-modus and waits for incomming connection.

ok - I can live with it. I don't need it every day. ;-)

oh, now I´ve seen, that there is a newer version of the viewer available. I´ve tried it and now I´m thinking about a possibility to send the tool-window into the tasktray like older versions with the option -listen.
Are there an option for that?

It seems, that doesn´t work on my system.
I tried both: start the viewer (rel 1.28/1.29) with option -listen and also your way (start the tool and than menu/file/start listener. It´s always the same. In the tasktray I get an extra icon. But the mainwindow stays opened. If I close the mainwindow then the tool terminates completely (the tasktrayicon also).
What I´m doing wrong? Or are there no possibility for my wish?

oh, thats wrong. Hope, this feature will be coming soon. I don´t like it, if there are so much tools with an extra permanent opened window.
