font-family:Arial'>My little contributions are going to starting coming in.
This one is for users. I have started using my ipaq h2215 as a remote. For the
server I got x0rfbserver. It was simple to setup and loads up quickly.
For the pda I started out with vncview from (<a
href="http://www.cs.utah.edu/~midgley/wince/vnc.html">http://www.cs.utah.edu/~midgley/wince/vnc.html</a>).
There are a few noticeable problems with using vnc.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>The problems are:<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Power off PDA vnc closes – yeah this sucks but
it’s not life or death here. Give me time to rewrite the login
setup/connection routines.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>No escape key - Key binding didn’t work for me, so
I switched it back and added an escape key to the key’s menu of the vnc
software.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Sluggish – These are the screen updates. Useless as
the screen is just going to be blue for tv. I added a no remote window option
and now it’s very responsive.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;

so far. As I come up with problems I will fix them.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>My setup is using Bluetooth to my main pc then to the
network finally reaching the myth box. I would like to add a Bluetooth adaptor
the myth box and get that working but we shall see. All the pda needs in this
setup is a wireless connection to the network. With this you can do anything on
the myth box as if you had a keyboard and mouse, this includes running other
programs other than mythtv.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I don’t know exactly what this post was for but I got
the idea before from other posts that are outdated now. I am not sure if those
people gave up or what but I have added my limited programming support to
making a pda remote control. As such I figured this might come in handy for
others. My source code and complied project are available to under gpl and
should soon be posted at the main website for the vnc software. If it’s
not at the vnc website I will setup my own. Soon this project will be
drastically different as I make an interface that has some functionality. My
programming skills on any windows interface sucks though so maybe someone else will
work on this with me. Let me know if your interested.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
