Stream Deck, TeamViewer, and QLab
Benjamin Krumholz:
Anyone use a Stream Deck over team viewer? Meaning the Stream Deck is with you and you are controlling another computer connected through Team Viewer.
I have a remote rig with 2 Team Viewer Machines. One is a Control Machine running TF Editor connected to a TF Mixer. The other machine is a Playback Machine running Qlab... I would love to be able to remotely control the qlab ques using a Stream Deck or X-keys.
Using Unity Intercom to monitor audio.
Thanks
Ben

I use n/Grok. No need for TV and works like a hot damn.

For those of us with poor memory skills, can you walk us through the basic mechanics of how that works?

So, i went out and bought a StreamDeck Mini and answered my own question.
It works pretty well so far.
At first I set up the control software on the remote computer that is running Qlab and the StreamDeck would not connect.
After that, I installed the control software on my local computer.. It connected. I mad a few buttons for simple Hotkey key strokes that Qlab has.. Go is Spacebar, Up is Up down is Down, Anything that has a Hotkey in the program you can program a key for on the StreamDeck. Then in the settings of the control software you can select a default program for the commands to be used. In this case, TeamViewer.
Boom it works! As long I am focused in to the correct software on the remote computer. The commands from the StreamDeck pass from my local computer to the remote machine.. The only problem now is that I have to run multiple TeamViewer machines at once.. I'm going to need a dedicated computer for that remote session only.. That way when i click back into my console remote session i don't go issuing key strokes for that software.

Fascinating. This is incredibly useful to know.
Just to be clear, you're not using Companion, you're using the native StreamDeck control software?
