Screen controls

[Doug Simpson]

At some point in time back in the history of Concerto, there was a way
to restart and perform other functions on screens from the manager. Is
there a plugin for that or something?

That would show the screen's IP address, let you restart it, tell you if
it was online or not, and do some other things.

Thanks!

If there is I’ve never found it. Development on this has just disappeared.  I am using android devices and control it with software like

Fire sticks are pretty cheap, but you have to find an older version of Firefox that supports full screen. 

They removed the full screen from most browsers. 

Cheers,

KJohn.

Hey guys, I am using fully-kiosk app for Android players, it is fully functional, free to download and use from fully-kiosk.com 

For remote control I use droidvnc, as Mr. John does, and to start apps on boot I use Auto Start Manager of The Sugar Apps. DroidVNC require Android 7+ and android accessibility for unattended control. The other 2 apps work with Android 6+. 

All you need is 5 minutes of setup time. 

The apps can be found on F-droid website. 

Fully kiosk is better to be downloaded by their own website. Fully-kiosk.com 

Cheers
