Hi @mshopper2,

These black borders appears when the current resolution in the viewer app does not match the aspect ratio of the device’s native screen resolution.
In the Android Viewer settings -> Resolution, uncheck the „Use custom resolution“ box, so that the viewer will only use the native android device resolution.

[spacedesk Lea]

Hi @f00,
It’s possible that the aspect ratio of your client screen does not match the current screen resolution used in a mirrored spacedesk display.
What is the current screen resolution on your primary machine in spacedesk mirror mode?
Can you tell us your primary machine’s and Android device’s native screen resolution?

[spacedesk Lea]

Hi @mshopper2,
Please upload again the images with smaller file size.

Hi @alion,
You can try 2 things:

1. You can try to connect a virtual display without secondary machine connected using local host connection via HTML5 Viewer.
Just open a web browser on your primary machine (e.g. Google Chrome, MS Edge), then go to http://viewer.spacedesk.net/ and connect to your local machine’s IP address.
Please take note that only 1 connection is allowed when using spacedesk HTML5 Viewer.

2. Enable Videowall and set the Videowall Disconnect Delay to -1 (equivalent to infinite) in spacedesk Driver Console Window.
With disconnect delay set to infinite, it will not unplug the virtual display in your primary machine even after disconnecting the viewer app in your secondary machine. It will only unplug upon spacedesk server switch (OFF-ON) or machine reboot.

[spacedesk Lea]

Hi @maciek,

1. Yes. By default, spacedesk Server starts automatically upon Windows start up. You can check this via spacedesk Driver Console -> Control, on Configuration box where you can find the „Automatic Start at System Boot Time“ check box.

2. Yes, just download the spacedesk Windows 7 Viewer (version 0.9.39) on your laptop.
Just make sure to check the Keyboard and Audio Speaker on Functionality settings before connecting it to your Primary PC.

Hi @riore2us,

Thank you very much for sending the diagnostic logs.

It seems that you have a Virtual Desktop (from https://www.vrdesktop.net/) installed in your primary machine.
This software seems to have incompatibility issue with spacedesk.
We were able to reproduce the same Display Off issue after installing the Virtual Desktop then reboot.

Please try this workaround steps to make it work with spacedesk:
– open device manager in your primary machine
– go to Display adapters and right-click Enable device the “Virtual Desktop Monitor”
– open spacedesk Driver Console then switch the spacedesk SERVER OFF-ON

If the steps above did not help, the only option is to uninstall the Virtual Desktop app then reboot your primary machine.

Hi @jewels,
spacedesk does not support IPv6 address.
Have you tried setting a static IPv4 address and manually input this IP address on your iOS Viewer app?

[spacedesk Lea]

Hi @hucbr600,
Ok, thanks for the feedback.
I really think it has something to do with your current network. Since pinging the IP address of the client results to time out and that indicates that it cannot reach the client devices in the same network.

Anyway, next thing to try – local host connection via HTML5 Viewer.
Just open a web browser on your primary machine then go to http://viewer.spacedesk.net/ and connect to its own IP address OR to 127.0.0.1 and check if spacedesk can connect locally.

Hi @shaglord,
Current spacedesk Windows Viewer app does not support it. But you can try local host connection with spacedesk HTML5 Viewer.
Just open a web browser (e.g. MS Edge or Google Chrome) on your primary machine then go to http://viewer.spacedesk.net/ and connect to its own IP address or to 127.0.0.1.
FYI: spacedesk supports 1 HTML5 Viewer connection only.

[spacedesk Lea]

Hi @wlioi,
If this touch issue is only observed with quicker, then maybe it’s a quicker issue.
Since touch works on spacedesk in normal operation (without quicker).

Hi @waitingky,

This feature is still not available and will not be available anytime soon.
We are still very busy with higher prioritized features and bug fixes.

Hi @hucbr600,

Thank you very much for answering all the questions.
Have you tried without all these other programs (games and other network connection related apps) running in your machine, and just run spacedesk only?
Just to check if these other programs don’t interfere with spacedesk network discovery.

[spacedesk Lea]

Hi @hucbr600,
Thank you very much for sending the updated diagnostic logs.
Based on the logs, spacedesk server start looks good.

Failed ping indicates that there’s a network issue (or something is blocking the network connection between primary and secondary devices). Your primary machine seems unable to reach your client devices.

Please check in Control Panel -> Network & Internet -> Network and Sharing center -> Change advanced sharing settings,
then check if Network discovery and File and printer sharing are ON.

Are you sure that your wifi router don’t have any WiFi/AP/Client Isolation enabled?

Is your primary machine (Surface) personal? Or is it company issued machine?
Is your Wifi network not a public network (e.g. University, Hotel, Restaurant)?

Are your iPads from Mainland China? Are they WiFi only? Or with cellular?
Please check on your iPad Settings -> Privacy -> Local Network, if spacedesk is on the list and enabled?

[spacedesk Lea]

Hi @themrslime,

Thank you very much for sending the diagnostic logs.
Based on the logs, you have several similar software installed in your machine e.g. splashtop, Twomon, etc..

Hi @wuttrin,

What is your iPad’s model and iOS version? Is it Wifi only or with cellular?

Do you have VPN (Virtual Private Network) active? If yes, please disable it.

Do you have any third party antivirus/firewall software? If yes, please make sure to add spacedesk in the exception list to allow incoming and outgoing connection.

What is your current network profile type in your primary machine? Is it private or public?
You can check this in Windows Settings -> Network & Internet -> properties of the current network.
It it’s public, please switch it to Private and check if the viewer app can now discover the primary machine.

For assistance, please also check the Troubleshooting -> Network Connection chapter in the user manual https://forum.spacedesk.netuser-manual/.

[spacedesk Lea]

Hi @mintogo,

Current BETA version can be used for free until the expiration date. This applies to business and private users.
Licensed version will become available as in-app-purchases from the app stores (Windows/Android/iOS).
Possibly there will always be a basic free version, too.
For info, please also check the „Future Release Schedule“ info in our website https://forum.spacedesk.net.

[spacedesk Lea]

Hi @eloss,
Unfortunately, no plans to support devices with older Android version (4.1 – below) as secondary machine.
For info, please check System Requirements chapter in the user manual https://forum.spacedesk.netuser-manual/#item_445.

As an alternative, you can use spacedesk HTML5 Viewer on your old Android device.
Just open a web browser (e.g. Google Chrome) then go to http://viewer.spacedesk.net/ and connect to the IP address of your primary machine.
Keep in mind that this HTML5 VIEWER is much slower than our native apps on Android, iOS and Windows.
This is due to technical limitation of HTML5/Javascript.

[spacedesk Lea]

Hi @hungductdm,

Yes, it’s not possible to use an external monitor as secondary machine (it requires to have an operating system e.g. Windows, Android, etc.. to be able to install the spacedesk Viewer app).
Current spacedesk BETA version does not support HDMI/USB-C connection. It operates over local area network connection only.
For more info, please check system requirements chapter in the user manual https://forum.spacedesk.netuser-manual/.

[spacedesk Lea]

Windows dump files cannot be opened using a simple text editor app, you have to use a specific tool like WinDbg (a debugging tools for Windows) to show the content of the dump file and for us to analyze it.

[spacedesk Lea]

What is the timestamp of the current MEMORY.DMP in your machine? Can you verify if the current timestamp of the dump matches the time when you last encounter the system crash upon spacedesk disconnect?

Can you maybe split the compressed folder into multiple parts? Or maybe upload it in dropbox or any cloud storage app which you can share the link so we can download it on our side?

Hi @sam07,

Thank you very much for confirming.
So the black screen is caused by an old AMD graphics driver in your primary machine.

It’s up to you if you want to keep using Microsoft Basic Display.
If you are running any 3D games app, you might encounter some issue with Microsoft Basic Display as your main graphics driver.

[spacedesk Lea]

Hi @sam07,

I see..
It’s possible that the black screen is caused by your outdated graphics adapter.
To verify this theory, could you please try to update your AMD graphics adapter to Microsoft Basic Display (temporarily). Just follow the steps below:
– run devmgmt.msc to open the Device Manager
– go to Display adapters -> AMD Radeon HD 6520G
– right-click -> Update driver -> Browse my computer for drivers -> Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer
– select Microsoft Basic Display Adapter then click Next to proceed

After the steps above, open the spacedesk Driver Console -> Control -> switch spacedesk OFF-ON, then try to connect your viewer app and let us know the result.

To restore your AMD Radeon HD 6520G driver just follow the same steps above, then just select „AMD Radeon HD 6520G“.

[spacedesk Lea]

Hi @vixvix,
You can easily disconnect the spacedesk iOS viewer app by pinching the screen.

Hi @dmanz56,

Strange.. if it’s a system crash there’s should be a dump file in C:\Windows\Minidump or a C:\Windows\MEMORY.dmp.
If it’s a user mode driver crash there should be a dump file/s in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\WDF.
Dump files are automatically generated and will not be deleted unless users manually deleted it.

In the diagnostics you sent, I only noticed a recurring application crash of Pilot2ATC_2021.exe
Maybe this is the one crashing upon spacedesk disconnect and causes the PC to freeze.
Have tried waiting for the freeze? Maybe it can recover after a few minutes?
