@dazza120 :relieved_face: but neither the restart or the start cmd will display the mirror as i expected… i have tightvncserver installed but maybe x11vnc is needed? idk this

@bibi I just have the VNC from raspberry pi enabled, And VNC viewer with cloud so I can view or change stuff when I’m out and about

Why aren’t you just hitting the mirror with a web browser? The browser will render the mirror more-or-less exactly as it will be displayed. You won’t be able to use any module with a peripheral, such as a microphone or IP camera. But for layout, fonts and the like it will speed things up immeasurably.

Add your computer to the ipWhiteList and restart the mirror process. Point your browser at http://[mirror ip address]:8080

@bhepler thx for your confirmation!

for the ones who need to the same, here is how i updated my config file:

var config = {
        port: 8080,
        address: "0.0.0.0",
        ipWhitelist: [],

Thx to both for your help
