Title: Deckboard - sound volume control and shutdown system remotely
Post by: kent79 on July 25, 2020, 01:05:24 AM

Hello, I would like to share a interesting app called Deckboard. It is the best remote control for retro windows system. I mainly use it for sound volume control and shutdown system remotely. Enjoy!

Maybe also interesting for you:

-Microsoft Remotedesktop App:
you see and control your whole desktop from mobile device.

-Logitech Remote Control - Harmony Series:
the TV Multimedia Control can also be used for computers.
There exists profiles for certain applications like KODI.
with a little workaround it's possible to start computer from standby/sleep mode.

-Microsoft Remotedesktop App:
-> It is not easy to use since Deckboard app can make a function button

-Logitech Remote Control - Harmony Series:
-> Yes, but you need to buy one more device

Well, the best remote control for retro windows systems, accords to own, prefered taste and gusto.

Already at home. Already in use ^-^
bluetooth and infrared is supported too..

Somebody show me this panel: Stream Deck (https://www.elgato.com/en/gaming/stream-deck).
In my opinion, too much.

If you have an Raspberry PI in use, you can still make something similiar with it.

Using Amazon Dash Buttons with Raspberry PI has style too. Here (https://pypi.org/project/amazon-dash/)

Really retro to control an retro windows computer : wireless keyboard or bluetooth keyboard with multimedia buttons ^-^
