Without any further introduction I’ll just go ahead and make a post about my project of the day. As you can see on the left of this cunning text, what we are dealing with is the Real VNC program.
I woke up today thinking that this will be the day I find out how to control the PC from my IPAD. And so i did.
After some poking around the internet, and experience from some previous projects, I decided to use this program. It’s a free download for the PC, but sadly it costs a nickel on the Appstore.
With this program downloaded and installed, wich was quite easy btw, I sat down in the living room and started controlling my PC.
I gotta say, it worked well. In addition with the Air Video App, that lets you stream video and pictures etc. to your Ipad, this program is very handy. Just imagine when your already in bed / toilet and you need to extract some .RAR files on you PC in order to stream them to your Ipad, you can just Remotely unzip/extract those files and start streaming without leaving the bed / toilet !
I’m also going to mention the possibility of connection to your PC through the Internet, this surely is an easy task but i haven’t started the process of Port forwarding etc. More on this subject later.
It goes without saying that using the Ipad in the toilet is NORMAL BEHAVIOUR for someone reading this Blog.
More about Air video and other streaming programs later on.
That encloses my first contribution to this blog, until we meet again
