I have a motorola zoom tablet. I am using Remote Desktop Client by: Xtralogic, Inc. I have access to my laptop at home while traveling over Verizon's Network. Everything is working fine, except I am unable to play World of Warcraft on the Tablet via remote desktop access. I have researched port information and have setup router via all listed port settings. World of Warcraft attempts to load and then I get error " Running World of Warcraft through a Remote Desktop connection is not supported. Exiting program." Is there a work around?
Thanks!
Have you tried using free vnc for the pc and android free vnc app for the tab? Perhaps WOW wouldn't detect that connection, I haven't tried to play, because I don't have a tablet. Just a thought though.
You can't render 3D applications through an RDP connection with any kind of speed at all. If you could get it to work it would look like a slideshow and be impossible to interact with. You should bring a laptop, or chill out and not raid while you're traveling.
When WoW becomes your job it's time to quit.
Quit his job, or WoW?
BTW, newest versions of RDP do support some 3D acceleration (look for info on RemoteFX). But yeah, don't expect to run any games that way, for multiple reasons. And don't expect to see this on any tablet or phone,as I doubt Microsoft makes the whole API public, so third party clients will always have limited support for RDP features.

Assuming you can get it to play in windowed mode, you should be able to do some things with splashtop. Try the free version first: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.splashtop.remote.free . I can sort of play starcraft 2 with this, and I definitely play ps2 and dreamcast with it, so give it a shot!

Try Splashtop it works for nearly every game that can be run in windowed mode.
We have some setup information here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=999133
You will want a wireless keyboard or a bluetooth controller to play with, I don't know if splashtop supports a mouse though.
If I can get my XOOM to play left 4 dead 2. You can probably get yours to play wow.
Well for $1.99 I couldn't resist. Downloaded splashtop, set a few things in my routers configuration and bam... WoW on my Xoom. I highly recommend a bluetooth keyboard and mouse of some sort if you're really dead set on doing this.
One drawback is you have to set your audio to 2 channel if its anything else, or it will simply mute.
I'm upping a youtube video now.

thanks for all the responses,this was for a coworker,who had to have her crack on the go, with all your suggestions and help she was able to accomplishes this, and now seeing her play wow on the xoom, i'm going to set this up for my gtab and relive yesteryear playing civ and half-life.
Lol.
Well your friend is going to have a less than perfect experience as there is hardly any mouse control at all... and if she just wants to be able to chat there's a much easier way to do it via the remote auction house app.
I'll save the armchair psychiatry for someone else but.... *snort*.
thank you
Thank you both! Of course it would be no where near the quality of PC gaming. Its just one of those itches I had to scratch. thank you again.

Lol, no problem. I tried to run around last night with a keyboard and mouse and found out real quick that splashtop doesn't translate mouseclicks or right clicks very well. Their solution to click and hold is to tap and then hold and drag which caused my POV to spin way out of control and from then out I couldn't see anything so I just logged out lol.
I would prefer the $2.99 a month remote auction house service to this.
I have to admit though it's terribly fun to show off
I'm not a hardcore player and I work too much. However I still find the time to connect my Wii remote and play mario and galaga on the Xoom. Oh yes, its very much fun to show both of them!

I have an HTC Evo, and I noticed today that I can do open remote play with mobile phones. I was wondering if anyone knew how to get this to work with Android. I get to enter in a password, my Evo remembers the password, but when I try and connect, I can't and my Evo states that I have the wrong password. The PS3 gives you the password to enter, so is there a file that may need to be changed? Sorry if this is posted somewhere else, i ran a search and didn't see anything.
Thanks in advance! Love XDA!!

Hi. Where did you download it from. If you let me know, I'll try it out on my Desire Z and report back.
Its actually just on the PS3 under settings. It would be amazing to use our android handsets as remote play devices. The only thing I can see is having to use PSFreedom and creating a homebrew app for the PS3 and an app the corresponds for rooted android devices.

Unless a hack of some sort is done, you wouldn't be able to play CoD (or any other disc driven game for that matter) through remote play.
After I registered my PSP for remote play, I actually went onto the net and found out exactly what Remote "Play" is.
I don't know about PSN games or downloaded movies, but it will not allow you to play disc games or disc movies.
It is more of an app that allows streaming music, pictures and certain types of videos to the registered device.

Remote Play can do much more. If you have modded your PS3, you can enable Remote Play for any PS3 game. All it does is stream the video and controls.
To get Remote Play to work on a device other than an officially licensed product (say your iphone, pc). You must pair it FIRST with a PSP device. After the device is paired, you have to extract the information on the pairing from the PSP (also requiring a modded PSP).
And after all that hoopla, you use Remote Play to stream any game (and also xvid i believe)
Unfortunately I don't think there is a solution for android at the moment.
PS3 Eye as remote surveillance device
If remote play worked for android, I would have remote surveillance in my pocket at all times, which is what I am really looking for.
It's Sony, they would never do something so awesome as to allow every Android phone do this.
They want your monies!
OnLive is a cloud computing, gaming-on-demand platform: the games are synchronized, rendered, and stored on remote servers and delivered via the Internet.
The service is available using the OnLive Game System, PCs running Microsoft Windows (XP, Vista, 7) and Intel-based Macs with OS X 10.5.8 or later. A low-end computer, as long as it can play video, may be used to play any kind of game since the game is computed on the OnLive server. For that reason, the service is being seen as a competitor for the console market. All games on the service are available in 720p format. OnLive recommends an Internet connection of 5 Mbit/s or faster, and a 3 Mbit/s connection meets the minimum system requirements.
Thanks for this. It works well on my Tmobile tab running latest overcome gingerbread. Can't wait for this service when I can actually play it from my tab. I'm wondering if they'll issue a controller so that I can use my hdmi dock and play from my couch?
Hi, please go to the website www.onlive.com for more info.
Thanks for your reply

Hey guys,
Just wanted to mention that the file posted above is just a "viewer", not the full Android Onlive app. That means you can log in, check out the overall performance and experience of using Onlive on your device, but you cannot actually play any games. You can watch others in the arena and see what it would be like, though.
Many thanks to the uploader for the viewer! Works fine on my Overcome Hermes SGT, though connecting from Europe through a VPN to access the service really kicks it down...
Great job,

I don't have it, it is $5.04 in the app store. I just emailed the developer to ask if our Xperia Play controls will work with this. The Videos on Youtube look awesome (Playing WoW and others) But I don't want to shell out the cash if the only option is onscreen controls.
Thoughts???

Hi Rob!
Yes it should support the XPeria Play but I "hardcoded" values for buttons like (cross/triangle/square/select/start).
I will try soon (< 2 weeks) to add an option that you will be able to set a specific action like (spacebar, d, control, ...) for each buttons of xperia.
I add your request in my backlog. I've received feedbacks and now i'm fixing bugs and add new features.
I will release a new version (Kainy 1.01) this Sunday .
Best Regards and thanks for your comments, suggestions and post on XDA,
JS.
Definitely going to buy this. Been waiting for this for a long time.
Does the pc need to be switched on for this to work?
Sent from my R800i using XDA
Yes, the PC will have to be switched on. The way it, if I understood it right, is that it streams the video to your phone and then adds controls on your phones screen.
I am very interested in this app and the idea. If the analogs work and the gameplay is smooth even over a 3g network as advertised then I'm on it. I am just curious how that would work and if there is be a demo to try.
i emailed the dev.
and wow,fast response.
i'm asking about the internet minimum requirement and the plus value than another diff remote app.
here is the answer:
For the Local Wifi is really fast. You should get a 30-60fps depends of your phone and computer.
And for the internet connection, there are 2 mains factors, your internet provider for upload (computer->internet) and your phone download bandwidth (internet->phone).
I have a really low upload connection at home. So I optimized the software to be able to work at 0.5 mbps for "internet mode".
And if the speed is too low, I've created 4 types of quality image between low->high quality.
I think the plus values is customization like you can customize your games and they keep the settings.
So if you customize Skyrim, after customize wow, and come back to play skyrim, you'll get skyrim settings.
And each applications has 5 pages, so you can only put minimal buttons and switch pages.
I definetely want to buy this app next month,still wait my salary pay off.

Imagine you are not at your computer right now, so boring and want to continue playing Mass Effect 3, Darksiders, PS2 games, Dreamcast games, Gamecube games, Wii games through various types of emulator etc.
While sometimes I'll leave my laptop at the first floor and kind of wanted to play PC games downstairs at my sofa or far...far..away from my home. It's very usefull. It's like your own ONLIVE system. I have use this kind of thing before with PSPDisp. But it's limited to WiFi connectivity. But Kainy can connect using WiFi/3G/4G...Wow!!!
I see, not much of a point for me since I wouldn't keep the laptop on probably but useful for others

Sent from my R800i using XDA
I would love to see an advert version of this, I want to try it so bad but I just can't pay for it. Plus, I saw something about a laptop as I skimmed through this, try an older game. The ONLY reason why I want this app is so I can play Grandia 2, since the Dreamcast emulator for Android hasn't come out, and the PC version is SO low end, I'll be playing once I remember how I got it to run on XP. Stupid Win98 only titles. lol
I plan on purchasing an Asus Transformer Pad 300, or perhaps a Prime/Infinity 700 should I manage to scrape up the extra cash, to serve as a replacement for my current laptop. Android more than satisfies my daily use and, with a tablet instead of a laptop, there is also an option for some portability plus using a tablet is much more comfortable than using a laptop when sitting on a sofa. However, there are two things I shall miss from Windows...Microsoft Office and Steam. I've heard of an application called Splashtop which allows you to access your PC remotely. Using this, will I be able to run Microsoft Office and Steam games such as Fallout: New Vegas on my Asus tab? Also, is it compatible with the Transformers' keyboard docks? Will I, for example, be able to type in Office using the keyboard dock and then save it to my PC or use the keyboard dock plus a USB mouse as a means of control for games such as Fallout?
Splashtop Play Store Page Is Here
EDIT 1: I forgot to ask whether or not the application also transmit sound? Would I be able to open iTunes on the PC and play music from there, for example, on my tab?
EDIT 2: What is the general performance of the streaming like over a decent WiFi broadband connection? If I were to stream Fallout: New Vegas, for example, would I get around 30fps?

Having used splash top on iOS as well as android, I would say that your hopes are very very high and I would in no expect to play games.

Well, that's what I have seen demonstrations of it doing on YouTube? Plus, pictures of the app on the store also run games as well. Would it at least fair running Microsoft Office remotely and allow me to type using the keyboard dock?
Yes you can play games on it. I played Runescape (don't laugh ) on my device without lagg.
Yes it has an option so you can transmit sounds.
And performance is just great.

I think your internet speed must be quite slow, as it uses your internet network.
Anyone know whether or not Splashtop will work with USB mouse and the keyboard dock of the Transformer Pad 300?
I currently use the Win8 Metro Testbed edition of Splashtop from my Prime to my MacBook running Windows 8.
Under normal usage, the OS stutters, but it is not too bad. You are never getting the feeling that you are actually using Win8 with your Prime but that's ok. (Same applies to win7 usage with different Splashtop versions, even THD).
The whole thing also uses the keyboard dock of the prime, you can use it as a mouse for example and the cursor on the PC updates (after a bit of lag). Typing also works great, no problems here.
I use it to watch videos on my Prime, but since I only watched Cartoons like the Simpsons & Family Guy, I didn't notice any lag or stuttering. Sound also comes in sync, it's working great. Again, I haven't tested this with a real movie, not to speak about 720p/1080p.
i tried playing games using splashtop but sometimes the screen resolution of the game in the computer becomes small.
So I've got my Shield and I'm loving it. However, only about half of my games have Xinput controller support. So I'm trying to figure out how to get either Pinnacle Game Profiler or Xpadder to work with it. I've tried a few things, and I'm not quite getting there. Here's what I've tried:
- Setting up a Profile with Pinnacle for Xbox 360 controller and then launching Big Picture from the Shield. This didn't work (although it works with my regular Xbox 360 controller when not using the Shield).
- Adding Pinnacle Game Profiler as a program to Steam and then trying to launch it while connected with the Shield. It would not open while the Shield was connected to Steam. It did open in Big Picture while the Shield was not connected.
So that's about as far as I've gotten. I do have a few ideas, but I'm not sure how to implement them. One idea is to figure out how to add Xinput to a game. Basically setting up something like Pinnacle or Xpadder to "listen" for a connected Xinput-compatible controller and then activate the proper profile. The other idea is to try and get Windows to see the Shield's controller and then configure Pinnacle/Xpadder in the normal way. I've tried connecting the Shield to my PC with a USB cable, but it only mounts as a Media Drive and the controller feature is not detected by the computer. Someone on the Pinnacle forum suggested trying to find an App for Android that will connect the Shield to my PC as a controller. There are several Apps that can do something like this, but none that look like they would work with the physical buttons on the Shield (if someone knows of a good App, I'd be interested to try it).
So those are my thoughts and where I'm at. Any ideas on what I can try?
No ideas, but bumping for my support... the inability to map the controller to keyboard buttons is the biggest letdown of the system to me. So many awesome games I could be playing on it if we could just map with xpadder.
I'd pay good money to have mapping abilities... anyone feel like a bounty?
It should work in theory if you play through steam, right? Steam recognizes the controller as xinput. If you set it up manually from the PC it seems like it should work!

The problem is that the controller is only detected by the computer while you're in big picture.it disconnects as soon as you exit big picture.
