KVM

View Only Mode

Q

Hi, is there a way to use KVM mode on Multiplicity for View Only mode and disable keyboard and mouse ? No keyboard, no mouse, only video. Thx

View Only mode ยป Forum Post by AndreiArdeleanu

A

There are two methods of doing this.

If you want all KVM sessions to always be in view mode then you can go to following registry location

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Stardock\Multiplicity2\KVM\KVM

and add a string value called "AlwaysViewOnly" and give that a value of 1

OR

If you want to do it for a specific machine connection then find the connection here

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Stardock\Multiplicity2\Machines\<MACHINE NAME HERE>

And add a String value called ViewOnly and give it a value of 1 in the correct sub folder.

Please note these are HKLM not HKCU
