Share screen for coaching
 

Hi

I need some software, that will let an external user (coach) watch my screen while I play poker - for coaching.

The coach does not need to be able to control the mouse.

Any experience with this?

Never done it myself. I have seen people post, in the Micro-Brew thread, that Skype + Unyte works very well. Beyond that, I dont know anything. Never tried either application.

FWD is another alternative to Skype.

I took a quick look at Unyte (free version), looks very promising. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] We plan on using Skype anyway, so it's great that Unyte integrates well with Skype (or so they claim).

No link.

Someone just mentioned that they used Skype + Unyte for a "Sweat Session" and it worked great. There was no other info in the post.

Skype + Unyte has worked really well for me. The only problem was that I couldn't see HUD stats of the person I was sweating. FWIW it was a RealTime HUD.

Re: Share screen for coaching
 

ive still never been able to find one with 0 lag. is there any? Almost all the ones i have tried lagged so much it was pretty unbearable when sweating/coaching

Re: Share screen for coaching
 

VNC is great

Re: Share screen for coaching
 

AIM PRO works great and it's free. Only problem is it you can only share your desktop with one person.

Looking for a program that you can use to share with multiple people and free.

I tried crossloop (crossloop.com) earlier today, and it worked ok for watching.

I tried taking control of a computer over the Internet and editing in a word-doc, and it was impossible due to lag. I have a sick fast connection - and there was a sick fast connection at the other end - but still unbelievably slow - sometimes the connection was out for 10 secs at a time.

However, I will try it out tomorrow with my coach, where it is just for viewing purposes, not control.

I've heard good things about beamyourscreen.com though never used it myself.

1 week free trial, after that it's $35US/month for 1:1 sessions.

Re: Share screen for coaching
 

First session was earlier today, and we used CrossLoop - and it worked great! No problems whatsoever.
