Re: Reboot URL?

eg from a Linux box, wget http://[ip-address]/reboot

In my opinion it is a DoS security risk though, it should be authenticated.

Re: Dual Monitor

Perhaps we might think again about the idea of using slave RPi instead :)

Re: Dual Monitor

Ha yes simple for me to say :) In my mind the RDP client on the RPi would need little change, specifically to be able to accept a raw stream and display one selected screen area of it. All three devices (in my example) might be internally rendering the full display area, just pushing their own assig...

Re: Dual Monitor

Basically my idea is that one RPi would be the master and have the keyboard, mouse, network and screen attached as per usual. But we would be able to configure the wtware component to extend the display on another (preferably, several other) wtware RPi's that themselves only have a screen and networ...

Re: Boot Wtware on PI from HTTP in Cloud

Configure your local device to DHCP relay to a more functional DHCP server instead, which could also be in AWS/Azure if you like. Then you can control it as you need.

Re: Update clients with new versions

Network boot too via RPi firmware update. Need to test it, means the SD card can be removed altogether.

Re: How to change IP setting & TFTP server remotely ?

I would configure the router for DHCP relay in that case to your central location.

Re: Use Blaze Client?

YouTube suggest 8Mbps for 1080p, so the RemoteFX/H.264 stuff I guess is working OK.

Re: How to change IP setting & TFTP server remotely ?

Worth noting that network boot is now working, so new SD cards are not needed anymore (once RPi firmware is updated though).

Re: Dual Monitor

We had had a VGA PCB HAT developed specifically for this and achieved passes with EN 55032:2015 and BS EN 61000-4-2, meaning it can be CE marked (home or business use) with appropriate manufacturing techniques and indeed FCC marked for Class A (business use). However, there are further costs to brin...

Re: Dual Monitor

That hat has no ESD protection and no CE mark. In other words, it can't be sold as a product in the EU (and nor can it be sold in the USA, since likewise it has no FCC ID). Also the socket placement means it doesn't fit within a normal case.

Re: Dual Monitor

The issue is lack of frame buffer support in the kernel for the two screens concurrently. The secondary screen can only be accessed directly, for example using omxplayer and does not appear as /dev/fb1. Perhaps it would be better to be able to bond two RPi based wtware terminals, over the network, s...

Re: Dual Monitor

It's still widely used though. The issue with HDMI is the licensing - it's unlikely to be possible to cover those costs with a product that will be made in the kinds of volumes we're looking at here.
