Dispmanx only for Raspberry Pi?

Hello lewham,

x11vnc is work in progress.
It however flickers badly.

We welcome any suggestion on how to fix the issue, here or on github.

Is there a place that I can get some hints on using Dispmanx? I installed it, but it doesn't work. I assumed the lack of documentation meant it was plug and play.

It's like any other VNC server. Connect to it using a vnc program. The default port is 5900, you can change that and other settings in the add-on settings.

typically the ":" denotes a port number, so I would try 192.168.1.211:5900

Great!

I will create a corresponding addon, if you don't mind

escalade,

I have created an addon based on your package.
I tested it with 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 09)
It flickers/tears, but less than x11vnc, and it is therefore usable.

Any idea how I could solve flickering/tearing?
Thank you in advance.

What do you mean flickering/tearing? Can you create a video? Wondering if you might expect more from VNC than is possible.

Here is a video of my experience: mouse movements produce tearing/flickering.
