Remio Host for Linux 3.6.3

This release brings Remio Host to 10 more languages, gets direct connections through many more routers, keeps KDE Plasma sessions going when desktop services restart, and fixes Caps Lock, keyboard layout and second display problems.

This release brings Remio Host to 10 more languages, gets direct connections through many more routers, keeps KDE Plasma sessions going when desktop services restart, and fixes Caps Lock, keyboard layout and second display problems.

✨ New Features

  • 10 more languages - Remio Host now speaks Spanish, Italian, Korean, Traditional Chinese, Russian, Thai, Indonesian, Turkish, Dutch and Arabic, and picks your computer's language by itself. In Arabic, the window is laid out right to left.

  • Direct connections through more routers - Remio Host now also asks routers that speak UPnP to open a port for it, as Remio Host on Windows does, so on many more home and internet-provider routers your devices connect directly instead of through the slower relay.

⚙️ Improvements

  • Reachable again within seconds - When this computer's connection to Remio quietly dies, Remio Host notices within seconds and reconnects. After sleep it reconnects at once instead of after about 15 seconds, and once the network is back a device connecting reaches this computer within seconds instead of about half a minute.

  • Back to a direct connection - A session that started on the relay checks the port your router forwarded again, and moves to a direct connection once it answers.

  • The person using this computer keeps it - A device that lost its connection and comes back after another device started using this computer is told the computer is in use, instead of taking the screen back.

  • Extra displays wait for their device after a restart - When this computer restarts, a device's extra display that comes back a moment before the device itself waits for it, instead of the device being refused.

  • KDE Plasma sessions ride out desktop restarts - If KDE's screen sharing or PipeWire restarts during a session, Remio Host builds the session's display again at your device's size with this computer's screens still off, instead of ending on a share question or "someone is using the computer".

  • From remote control to a second display on KDE - Switching from controlling this computer to using it as a second display is no longer refused with "no screen turned on".

  • A second display says why it can't be added - When the desktop can't add a display for your device - compositing on Xfce, or a window manager such as Cinnamon's that leaves added displays out - your device says what to do, every time, and reads Ready again once that's fixed.

  • "In use" only while someone is - After a session over your local network ends, your other devices no longer show this computer as in use.

  • Picture quality holds after a Wi-Fi hiccup - After a short stall on a direct connection, Remio Host no longer drops the picture quality while the connection catches up.

  • Full frame rate after a takeover that didn't happen - When another device starts to take over your session but never gets there, your session goes back to its full frame rate instead of staying lower until it ends.

  • A computer with no desktop says so - When Remio Host runs where no desktop session is open, a connecting device hears so at once instead of waiting about 16 seconds for a picture that can't come.

  • No "screen turned off" card on virtual desktops - On an Xvnc or Xvfb desktop, your devices no longer say this computer turned its screen off for the session.

  • View-only guests - A guest you let in to view only reads "View only - no keyboard or mouse" on the session card.

  • "Waiting for the first device…" only before the first - The pairing panel no longer says it once a device is paired.

🐛 Bug Fixes

  • Fixed text typed from a device coming out in the wrong case when this computer's Caps Lock was on - also a saved password typed at the lock screen.
  • Fixed text typed from a device disappearing after this computer switched keyboard layout during a session, until Remio Host was restarted.
  • Fixed a mouse button or key held on a device that lost its connection staying pressed until the session ended, and Caps Lock flipping after a short drop on Wayland.
  • Fixed taps on an added display turning into clicks at the edge of the main screen on X11 desktops whose screens touch - those desktops no longer offer an added display the pointer can't reach.
  • Fixed a second display on KDE Plasma 5 Wayland or Steam Deck Game Mode waiting with no picture until it timed out - it now says at once why it can't be added.
  • Fixed sessions with no picture after the screen capture restarted on some Wayland desktops.
  • Fixed a device that takes over a session with 4:4:4 color on showing no picture for several seconds.
