How to remotely access xibo client

[asad.jamil07]

need some help regarding how to make client server connection

[Peter]

There are quite a few possible solutions (vncserver, teamviewer etc.)

Is it regarding Windows or Android device?

[Gino]

We are using VNC as Teamviewer as well. With VNC you can “silently” take over the screen, without anyone noticing it.

This all is configured on Windows machines.

It is Windows one and i want to know how to change the layout settings in xibo dot net client it always run the default layout on which it is configured

The Player will show whatever layouts you schedule to it. If your layouts aren’t being shown, then it’s likely that your layouts aren’t valid.

That’s covered in our FAQ here:

Why won't my layout play? / The splash screen plays instead of my layout

Problem: Layout will not play / the splash screen is shown instead of playing the Layout. Cause: Xibo requires all Layouts to contain something to show. For a Layout to be valid to play on a Xibo Player, it must meet the following criteria: Must have at least one Region on the Layout All Regions on the Layout must have at least one valid Media item on it If the Layout doesn’t meet that specification, then the Player won’t attempt to run the Layout and so the Layout will be missing from you…

If you are using android, you can install SSH client on it and then NAT the port.

There are a few different VNC server applications in the Play store for Android devices. Some require root access. You would need to try them and see which work on your hardware. There is also Webkey (http://webkey.cc/) which may be an alternative for you.

http://webkey.cc

Hello, thanks for your answer.
I can’t use http://webkey.cc because my proxy block this.
On the playstore i find Droid VNC and Vnc server but they are old and they don’t work for me.
I use a box android 5.1 with root access, can you say me 2 or 3 app vnc server that i can test ?

Thanks

I only know of the ones in the Play store I’m afraid. I know they don’t all work with newer Android versions. If that case, you may have to look at getting webkey working with your proxy.
