Arggh! Shame I use a Mac … but perhaps Parallels or Fusion would be an option?
Yeh – I am not sure if this is new or not…. I know there are other remote control options out there..
I thought it was quite a new development and potentially free. Problem for me was that it was Windows only 🙁
+Christopher Stott yeh – I wonder if it would run virtual.. or if it would run into driver issues… I assume it would…without direct support…
Perhaps I'll give it a whirl and see what happens.
Thanks for the link. Definitely going to give it a try.
I am all for supporting the code projects where people create a solution to an issue and share it with others…
Hmm. Needs .Net Framework v4. Must have been a while since I played with my Windows VM!! May be some time before I can test this off my Mac 🙁
Hmm. "CameraControl has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
At least they're polite about the problem! I was using XP with .Net v4 on VMWare Fusion. As I mentioned earlier, this may take some time 🙁
🙂 – I always love a polite error message….
