Author Topic: DSS200 - VNC screen resolution Gavin Lewarne Master Film Handler Posts: 278 From: Plymouth, UK Registered: Aug 2009 posted 04-08-2015 02:49 PM                     Is there any way to increase the "virtual" screen resolution of our DSS200 when using VNC to view / control it? On my FHD monitor the default settings are very conservative, and I was thinking it might be nice to have a bigger screen, without VNC scaling, to accommodate larger widths in file name lists without scrolling horizontally all the time.  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!!

Just how big are you wanting it that it doesn't look good at that resolution?  |  IP: Logged Gavin Lewarne Master Film Handler Posts: 278 From: Plymouth, UK Registered: Aug 2009 posted 04-08-2015 05:53 PM                     just a bump up to 1280x768 would be nice Pretty sure the on-board Matrox G200 is still able to support that. Its mostly so I can fit more width into the "content" columns to see more of the file manes without having to scroll, if you know what I mean but, if it is not possible, does not really matter  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!! Posts: 12814 From: Annapolis, MD Registered: Dec 1999 posted 04-09-2015 06:13 AM                     I just checked on a live site and it is 1024x768. Even if you connect the "VGA" connector up to a widescreen monitor...you just get a stretched version of the display, not more horizontal pixels.  |  IP: Logged Marco Giustini Film God Posts: 2713 From: Reading, UK Registered: Nov 2007 posted 04-09-2015 03:33 PM                     Does the Supermicro MB have a Matrox G200 onboard??  |  IP: Logged Gavin Lewarne Master Film Handler Posts: 278 From: Plymouth, UK Registered: Aug 2009 posted 04-09-2015 03:51 PM                     As far as I can tell looking at the OEM motherboard datasheets, yes it does  |  IP: Logged
