Hello Everyone, I haven't been much active on these lists, but I have been working on the VNC Viewer for Windows CE that I downloaded from the AT&T website, that was still in beta. Due to the fortunate sponsoring by my professor, I have been able to make soem good changes to the viewer for Windows CE and have also been able to port the TightVNC encodings to it. I have put up the sources online and binaries for MIPS and ARM processors, however the binaries are experimental, I would more recommend you compile the sources with the free Embeeded Visual Tools from Microsoft. The page is: http://www.seas.upenn.edu/~ssamak and please do email me in case some of the links are screwed up. Changes were: - made significant improvement to the way the local framebuffer is stored, and increased the speed of loading up and updates fro the servers by using direct memory copying of the received updates. - ported the TightVNC viewer 1.2.3 encodings to it and improved on them by making Tight and Zlib do the decoding directly onto the framebuffer, without creating a temprorary buffer. - added an experiemental option in the menu called Precise Mouse, which makes the viewer store the mouse movements and capture also missed mouse move events, so that you can get a much smoother and more precise movement of the mouse (try drawing fast circles in paint with and without Precise Mouse option). - made all sorts of bug fixes
I still feel that there are tons of things to be done for the viewer, like scaling. I have experiment with a different kind of scaling (other than the one done by the PalmVNC), implemented in the server, but havent spend t enought time on it to have it run smoothly. My wishful thinking is though to have this version become part of a distribution, like TIghtVNC and I would love to keep supporting it. There are some changes I have made that could be well reflected onto the Viewer for Windows. Please email me with any questions or comments on this. Thanks, Samoil ps: to try out the binaries, just copy the dll files to the windows folder on your Pocket PC, and remeber that I have only tested VNC on Cassiopea E-115 with Pocket PC 2000 (Win CE 3.0) running on it. _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
