story

In September 26, 2011, a client asked us to find a VNC viewer which could view multiple targets at the same time. We googled and came across the VNC Thumbnail Viewer of the original author. It's great. But, like many people, we needed certain features which didn't exist yet so we decided to enhance it. Thanks to the original author which made it available through open source license!

Our version is named, Enhanced VNC Thumbnail Viewer, which has the following extra features:

  • display 4 screens at a time with navigator and slideshow mode
  • can set title of each screen
  • can search for screen by title
  • support proxy through SOCKS version 5
  • password protection when opening the application (optional)
  • can reconnect to any specified screen

We published our source code and its binary version on sourceforge:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/evnctv/

We stopped working on it for a few years. But we notice that there are still many people who download it (and, supposedly, use it). Now that the timing is right, we are back on it once again! And we also move the source code repository from SourceForge to GitHub too.

Hello World.
