iTouch via Wifi on my computer

[rednas21]

So I saw videos with people playing their itouch from the computer; instead of connecting the itouch to the computer and screen share but vice versa. I went on a quest to figure it out and it was rather easy. I downloaded Veency and I have all the Open SSH stuff and everything seemed to go fine. When I tried at first I was using Ubuntu (wubi) and I used the "Remote Desktop Viewer" and it connected and seemed fine. I can see the mouse move around on my itouch screen and I could click the apps and type, the problem is: the iTouch screen doesn't show up on my computer, just a black rectangle. So I tried all the other vnc viewer in the ubuntu package manager, all had the same problem. Eventually I switched to windows vista, no luck there either.

Is there something I am missing like switching something on/off?

Thanks.

Yea. I did everything exactly like that. It connects to the ipod, the tightvnc window comes up but no picture just a black rectangle. I changed the picture settings to the lowest quality but still didn't help.

[battlecrushr]

Did u accept connection

[rednas21]

Like I said, it's connected to my itouch. I can see the mouse pointer on my itouch screen but I can't see the itouch screen on my computer just black. When I first connect though, for a split second there is a fragmented picture but then it goes black.

Will look into it

For windows, what program are you using? I've tried RealVNC and UltraVNC, and they both displayed my iPhone's and iPad's screens just fine although it was pretty slow and not very usable.

[rednas21]

I tried all of them, just a black screen. At this point I'm assuming something is blocking it. Like maybe some tweaks I have are screwing with the view or maybe I need to reorder my winterboard stuff. I really dont know.

Yeah, I'm seeing this problem too. Just a black screen on my Vista notebook and on my XP desktop. Same exact problem on both platforms. All looks and works well on iTouch, but my desktop and notebook shows only a black screen where my iTouch springboard should be. Grrrr.

Oh yeah, I'm using iPod Touch 3.1.3, UltraVNC 1.0.8.2, USB sync cable instead of wifi, Python 2.6 usbmuxd\python-client\tcprelay.py.
