Remotely controlling Arena

Post by moha20106 »

Hi all,
I'm asking for the way to remotely controlling the Resolume Arena
My PC will be behind the led display for the connections to the video-proseccors
But the control area and the operators will be far and in the different place

So, I'm asking about the way to controlling the Arena software remotely by laptop over UTP cable

Or any idea to remote it

Anyone have idea about that?
Thanks

Any VNC program will do that for you so that will be no problems.

I've personally programmed, mapped, and maintained Arena 6 projects from thousand miles away many times. Actually, I was just in New York working on a show in San Francisco that I programmed in Arena 6 using Chrome Remote Desktop!!

Teamviewer is what I use to connect to my remote servers.

If you're in the same building. You may look into OSC

Personnaly, I use 2 methods :

- tightVNC On Arena's PC and Chicken_of_the_VNC on my Mac for the remote

- Or OSC communication between Arena's PC and another computer with a Max patch
