Screen Share on software version 2.10 #99

Closed pks40 closed 3 years ago

pks40 commented 3 years ago

As someone already mentioned on reddit, the connection to Screen Share does not work in software version 2.10. One doesn’t even get an error message, it just gets stuck after displaying "Connecting to ScreenShare".

I know that you (@bordaigorl) already saw the thing on reddit, just wanted to open an issue here as well.

Probably this has something to do with the changes to Screen Share to allow sharing with the proprietary app via USB alone, but I have no idea of how to find out what the problem is. Perhaps some magician like @ddvk (who managed to communicate with Screen Share in the first place) can figure this out?

my first hunch is that they fixed the authentication, which was broken/ignored.

which i didnt implement because... there are some ids that have to be read from the config, i think the code contains some comments about the algorithm used. also a udp broadcast listener is needed.

ill have to install the update and check it out

it was the authentication

Thanks a lot, the fix at #100 works for me! (Apart from the version comparison in c38500b being in the wrong direction, but that's easy to amend.)

@pks40 thanks for reporting, the version check is now fixed
