RE: Shared memory documentation
reboot,
I’ve just run the two tests as you’ve asked and the results are below. Each test was done with only the Left MFD being extracted. To try and keep the tests fair, I loaded up TE02 - Takeoff, sat on the tarmac and looked one step down in the pit, using keystrokes 2, J (BMS.key). FPS measurement is done with FRAPS because I couldn’t seem to get the BMS FPS display working - tried Ctrl Z, R - no effect.
Test 1
Left: 0
Top: 0
Width: 256
Height: 256FPS ranges between 33 and 35.
Test 2
Left: -256
Top: 0
Width: 256
Height: 256FPS ranges between 30 and 31.

RE: Shared memory documentation
reboot, the PNG option looks great, but I found the refresh quite slow, which made “realtime” type displays like HSD, TGP & radar quite jerky.
Any way to adjust the resolution of the MFD picture at the Android end?

RE: Shared memory documentation
Just tried this out and it is freakin’ awesome! It takes some setting up, but once that’s done, it’s pretty much bulletproof. :thumbup:
The android client lost connection once, but fixing that is just a case of hitting “connect” again.
I found that 40% JPEG gave a good compromise between response time and quality, although A-G radar gets quite “muddy”. Still, it helped me to focus more on flying because I didn’t have to look down in the pit so much!
Thanks to all in this thread for the various hints - these made setup relatively easy. Thanks especially to JShepherd for writing the apps!
