Conduit v7.0.0

Conduit v7 introduces Remote Mode for high-quality, low-latency encrypted monitor streaming and remote viewing, alongside a persistent live topology map overlay, exclusive Windows network binding, and custom MSVC-compiled bootloaders free of antivirus false positives.

🚀 What's New in v7

🖥️ Remote Mode (Encrypted Monitor Viewing)

  • Direct Remote Monitor Viewing: View and control a Client monitor fullscreen on the Server's primary display, preserving the remote display's native cursor and aspect ratio with automatic aspect-fit letterboxing.
  • Dedicated Paired TLS Data Lane: Video streams securely over the existing authenticated TLS connection with bounded, high-quality 4:4:4 JPEG frames (targeting up to 20 fps). Input routing remains responsive on the separate control lane.
  • Automatic Fallback Watchdog: If a remote stream is interrupted or unavailable for more than one second, control and cursor automatically return to the Server's primary display.
  • Toggle Locking & Restart Persistence: The Remote Mode switch locks while the Server is running to prevent accidental state changes, and preserves its configuration across reloads.

🗺️ Live Topology Map Overlay

  • Always-on Top-Left Squircle Map: Displays a 70% opacity, non-activating, click-through monitor map in the upper-left corner of the Server's primary display.
  • Vibrant Color Grouping: Visualizes Server and Client displays with rich, saturated machine colors (Server in grey, Client 1 in blue, Client 2 in green).
  • Active Window Distinction: The actively controlled display expands by 15% with a prominent 3px white outline.
  • Cursor Proximity Auto-Hide: Moving the cursor near the map temporarily hides the overlay so it never blocks your work, reappearing automatically when the cursor moves away.

🛡️ Network & Reliability Enhancements

  • Exclusive Socket Binding: Added SO_EXCLUSIVEADDRUSE socket binding on Windows to prevent background or installed duplicate processes from hijacking ports 28903–28905.
  • Display Capture Resilience: Native display capture handles locked screens and non-interactive sessions without crashing.
  • Clean Antivirus Heuristics: Compiled with custom Microsoft Visual C++ (MSVC) bootloaders with Control Flow Guard (CFG) enabled, avoiding machine-learning false-positive trojan detections.

Installation

  • Installer: Run Conduit-v7.0.0-Setup.exe on the Server and every Client PC.
  • Standalone: Conduit-v7.0.0.exe is available for zero-install portable execution.
    All machines must run the same Conduit version.
