Bug Fixes

Fix known issue

Fixed the problem of ustreamer-dump not being supported. You can now save screen recordings using the following command:

ustreamer-dump --sink kvmd::ustreamer::h264 --output - | ffmpeg -use_wallclock_as_timestamps 1 -i pipe: -c:v copy my_video.mp4

That is great. Even better than having a portable version of the GLKVM app. All that is desparately needed now is tablet / touchscreen support (i.e. being able to remote control PC using Android/iPad).

are the code changes visible on github for this beta?

This rocks, I had found a way for remote control without VPN/tailscale and no app but what a hassle this is awesome!

I have never used/changed the "Device Identity" option before and using it for the first time, I just get a black screen when chnging it from the default. Is this behaviour to be expected?

It would request a reboot. WEBUI should show this

Lastimosa · August 26, 2025, 6:05am

Thanks. It is actually following the reboot that the screen goes completely black and would only resume working after changing Device ID back to default followed by another reboot.

Hi, May I confirm that you change the hostname before and the problem occur when upgrading to 1.5?
