Screen Behaviour When Using Remote Access

#1

Post by don.elliott.100 »

Hello. I like to remote control my astronomy laptop with another computer inside the house (especially when it's cold outside). I use Teamviewer or Chrome remote desktop. For either of these applications, the SharpCap screen becomes partially disabled when I close my laptop screen. I have "Do Nothing" selected in Windows settings for "what to do when the lid is closed". Some parts of the SharpCap screen (such as the actual image itself) keep updating but the control panel on the right seems to stop updating. I realize that this is most likely a Windows/laptop issue but I just thought I'd throw it out there to see if something could be done in SharpCap to help with this. Thanks.
