Reemo - Remote Desktop

Just wondering if anyone has tried or knows much about Reemo?
reemo-desktop

It is a remote desktop solution that claims 4K @ 60fps and has tablet support. It is browser based which is interesting. That potentially could make things easier for a remote artist but you’d want to test setup.

It does utilise HEVC for video streaming so I would assume it is GPU encoded for speed & quality.

I HATE when companies are not upfront about pricing. Almost always a big nope right away. But the specs do look good.

I know right?!! If the price is going to turn you off then it won’t matter when you see them. Nothing more annoying then spending time researching and testing a product only to get the pricepoint and it is significantly more expensive than the other options.

I tested this briefly. Summary, definitely warrants further investigation. Here are my quick findings.
Linux Host 2x monitor → Mac client 1x monitor .

  • With Personal plan, 4:4:4 only when using H.264. 4:2:0 with H.265.
  • I couldn’t get client side resolution matching working, but that was on a dual screen host.
  • FPS/interactivity feels good.
  • Image quality is OK, not great. Max bandwidth is currently 40mbs. For high resolution monitors that probably needs to be double. This does not seem to get any higher with Studio or Premium plans. Might be able to work something out with developer.

I did not test the Organization/Studio/Premium features. Look like you get HEVC 4:4:4 there which might alleviate the bandwidth issue.

Did not test Wacom, Audio, or collaboration.

This is promising.

anyone knows if 4:4:4 works from a macOS host?

I got a quote and it’s not particularly cheap, especially once you add any admin features.

Parsec and HP Anywhere are definitely more cost effective solutions. Shame there’s no Linux server version of Parsec

The new update is out and I have just taken it for a quick spin. Impressions are good. Better than our DCV setup.

I am going to be doing more testing tomorrow but it was surprisingly good :+1:

Thanks Richard! Going to give a test to this. Seams interesting and robust like Parsec with managed system + Linux.

Damn it. My wacom mapping keeps on wigging out. I’ll report it to them but it makes it hard to use. need to keep flicking switches to get it back only for it to loose its shit again

was under the impression they had passthrough sorted, but looking at the notes that’s for mac

They have been pulling this bullshit regarding Linux Wacom support since the beginning. This is even right on their website.

I am trying this right now, quality seems decent, i love the high bitrate options for LAN

however, there is no “immersive mode” aka “send hotkeys to host” or whatever it seems? so this is entirely unuseable as i cant even “alt tab” ?!

i mean thats like the most basic of functions of a system like this/

Also USB forwarding is windows to windows only, big meh.

what a odd design decision with a webbrowser client, seems to sevelerly limit the useability.

I am getting a different experience. I have Immersive. Almost all of my hotkeys function. :thinking:

It responds well to double key pressing (elbows on my nodes) Much better than DCV.

Some, like ctl alt f6 switch my Linux Virtual Condole :person_shrugging:

Wacom is what is letting me down. :weary_face:

might be a mac to mac thing , will investigate :thinking:

you can always use this remote usb thingy
