Ever thought about remote controlling the cMP setup through smart phone or tablet?

Hey Douwe,

Interesting post.

Have you ever thought about going ‘headless’?

I’m suggesting this because you wrote:
“i need this to be able to read the screen from my listening-position.”
When using a smart-phone or a tablet with a VNC-client, this would not be necessary.
You than could read and control everything from your smart-phone and/or tablet.

Going headless would also mean you can disconnect the PS2-mouse and the monitor.
But you would need too enable LAN and a VNC server.
So it comes down to using: PS2 keyboard + Monitor, or using: LAN + VNC server software
(+ a VNC client on your smart phone or tablet)

May be it’s worth too give it try and see if you like a headless setup this way.

Mark
