RE: Introduction of New VNC codec

2007-02-01 Thread James Weatherall
Hi Noriaki,

I assume you would like us to allocate you an encoding identifier to use for
your custom encoding scheme - can you confirm that that is the case?

I note that you have a version of the UltraVNC hobby project patched with
your scheme.  Since the UltraVNC project is not VNC-compatible, you will
need to switch to a VNC-compatible codebase if you want to provides VNC
viewers & servers with your custom encoding.

Cheers,

Wez @ RealVNC Ltd.

Re: Introduction of New VNC codec

2007-02-01 Thread Adam Tkac

Hitachi Systems & Services, Ltd. napsal(a):

Dear VNC developer.


  Introduction of
  "ZYWRLE":Enhanced VNC codec for Motion picture


1. Introduction
 The lossy codec based on Wavelet transform is frequently
used in compression of natural image, motion picture and
audio stream.
 But it isn't almost used in Remote Desktop protocol like
VNC because classical lossless run-length codec like ZRLE
has high performance in peculiar image which has big mono
color region like desktop image. The lack of lossy codec
cause low performance of motion picture in VNC.
 We introduce new codec "ZYWRLE(ZLib YUV Wavelet Run Length
Encoding)" which applied wavelet transform partially and
is based on ZRLE. In this new codec, network traffic reduced
to 15%-50% traffic of ZRLE when we play motion picture. 



2. Highlight of Evalution of ZYWRLE

| Mid   | 31.83|264.05| 12.1| 20.56|378.50| 5.4|  69.7  |  23.980 |
+---+--+--+-+--+--+++-+

* Comp. rate of ZRLE(about 30%) goes to 15%(Hi-quality)/5%(Mid-quality)! 



3. Reference Implementation(C source code/patch for VNC Servers)
  * Core Codec of ZYWRLE
  http://mobile.hitachi-system.co.jp/publications/ZYWRLE/zywrletemplate.c
  * Patch for [EMAIL PROTECTED] V1.0.2

  * Patch for LibVNCServer 0.8.2
  
http://mobile.hitachi-system.co.jp/publications/ZYWRLE/LibVNCServer-0.8.2-ZYWRLE-diff.txt

I think that Any VNC server can be applied ZYWRLE easlilly using one of these patch. 



4. License of ZYWRLE
 Though ZYWRLE is our intellectual property and was developed for
our micro-VNC, We Hitachi Systems & Services, Ltd. decided make it
open source. You can use it with no fee for commercial and/or 
non-commercial purpose. The above reference implementation are released

5. More detail
 See our ZYWRLE page(http://mobile.hitachi-system.co.jp/publications/ZYWRLE/)

We are glad if your VNC server supports ZYWRLE.

Thank you.

This idea looks very nice. I'm going to implement this new encoding in 
Fedora's VNCServer for future performance tests.

VNC on Unix IRIX 6.5 and Windows XP

2007-02-01 Thread Andy Fay
Hi All,
I'm new to VNC - looks like just what we want - but I may not be able to
install it on our unix machines. They are running IRIX 6.5, and whn I
type vncserver at a command prompt I get 'Command not found' . I was
under the assumption vncserver was installed with the Unix OS - is this
not the case? Is a kind person able to tell me where I'm going wrong?

Cheers

Andy

Use a VNC password in Listening mode

2007-02-01 Thread francoisch
hello

Running VNC connections in listening mode, I have:
- a permanently running VNC Viewer started via this command:
vncviewer.exe -listen 5500
- a VNC Server which initiates the connection via this command:
winvnc4.exe -connect xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx::5500

On the password side:
- for the Server, I can go into Options / Authentification and stick the
password into it

My question is about how to tell the Viewer what the password is.

Can I add the password into the command line?

Thank you in advance for your help.

2007-02-01 Thread Kent Parker
I'm using V.3.3 and trying to setup "shared connections" on a Windows 2003
server where VNC is running as a service.  How do you set it up so that the
default is to always allow shared connections?

Thanks.

Yes, Thanks you. Please allocate encoding identifier to ZYWRLE.

You say that I need to make patch for RealVNC server, don't you?
(Sorry to my poor understanding to English...)

If so, it's OK. I will try to make patch for VNC Free Edition
Source Code for Windows Version 4.1.2. I post it as soon as possible.

Do you need another patch for other servers?
