Title: remote control and multitasking
Post by: Linker_Split on August 23, 2013, 05:37:42 AM

Hello guys,
I run TD on a PC with 7 displays, and I have 2 floor people with iPad and teamviewer to  speed up some processes (like busting out players for example)
But, as you all know, teamviewer allows to take control over a PC, and this means that if you move the mouse with Teamviewer, PC operator can't do anything until control is over.
Do you know any workaround or any other programs which allow to control simultaneusly a PC (to allow multitasking)?

Does VNC interfere with PC usage or not?
I mean, can you use tablet to perform an action while Pc is doing another thing or not?

What happens on one screen happens on all screens

Maybe, conceptually, I found a solution.
To allow multitasking and parallel usage between two devices, Turnament Director must be installed on a server.
In this way, Teamvewer can be activated for terminal server support and alows multiple use of the programs...
but I'm wandering, it's still to cloudy for me :D
