That is how this tool works!?

Codehimn only made a single post in this forum (and in this site).
That was over 2 years ago.

Do you really expect an answer from him?

do you have installed wxPython? (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/wxPython)
If you do not say what is the error nobody will be able to help you ...
screenshot/log of the error?

not , it should be automatic, but only tested on python 3.3~3.6

I advise you to modernize (https://pythonclock.org/ , https://twitter.com/gvanrossum/statu...842496?lang=es)

but you can easy add one meta tag to auto refresh
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2"> to refresh every 2 seconds

OK, I installed Python 3.6. when I go to the link for downloading wxPython, there is wheel packages which I think are for Linux. I find no exe file to run in windows there!
Anyway, when I use cmd to install wxPython, it say the package is already there ("Requirement already satisfied:").
After putting parentheses after print commands in the py file provided "webserver_v3", I can run it but it produces an arror
" from BaseHTTPServer import BaseHTTPRequestHandler, HTTPServer
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'BaseHTTPServer'"
what is the problem?

@codehimn: You are now up to an average of one post per year.

I do admit that such a quick response after such a long silence took me by surprise.

You should try with "webserver_v6"... and let me know if all is ok
how to install the whl file:
python -m pip install path_folder***\wxPython-******.whl

For me this program works partially.
The screen the screen of kindle stays frozen. has no refresh after opening Experimental and writing the IP that is given on MSDOS Prompt in Windows.

But I noticed that some sites accessed with Kindle may have a moving image, especially an ad.

[DarkTrick]

Is anyone actually still interested in this stuff...?

I had troubles running the script. There seems to be a bug in wxPython, that will cause it to always save the same screenshot.

I "rewrote" it to use gtk instead. No wxPython needed

Attachment:
I don't see a way to attach my file, so I post the code of the python file below.

Note1:
I changed the code: The shown image will only update, if the picture is clicked (on the kindle)

Note2:
The code is "just get it work". So very ugly. I'm going to work on a much more sophisticated version within the next couple of month. Let me know if someone is interested .. might keep my motivation high.

Hello,

I uploaded a video regarding the current state:

As you will see: you can now move around on your screen with the kindle.

The skript is attached.
The source code is here (in case there is a problem with the attachment):

work but need some one edit the code to run for kindle very well
is some problem
you can test it
it is a software for any one not have knowledge of programing
i hope some one edit the code and make well it for kindle

[DarkTrick]

@hadi.kr

sounds nice on their website. Unfortunately they don't have a video showing it in action. And spending 1 to 2 hours to try it myself is a hard favour to ask. Maybe the software is crap. Maybe not. If they create an overview of their software, I might look into it.

edit: And they work on C#. So systems without C# support can't use it.

I looked over both the information presented on the web-site and the source code provided.
Ref: https://github.com/EslaMx7


Looks and reads as a young person just trying to re-invent the wheel (VnC) without a clue that VnC has been standardized and around for decades.


If you really want this sort of feature here, why don't you just give the VnC version(s) we have here as add-ins for the Kindle a try?


Also, Twobob has created Kindle add-ins for MS standard remote system sharing.
That project of his was because he did remote server administration for other people using his K5 Kindles as a remote system head.
