tom95521 Posted December 11, 2021 Report Share Posted December 11, 2021 I was interested in finding a device to remotely control my computer but did not want a bluetooth keyboard. I then started looking at Elgato Stream Deck and might purchase in the future. Elgato Stream Deck also has a mobile version but it has many negative reviews. Currently testing Touch Portal, a mobile app for iOS and Android that control Mac and Windows computers over wifi. I have it running on my low cost Kindle Fire Tablet. I still need to program the buttons as radio buttons that I only have to tap one time to start and not to stop. The slideshows are in .pteav format instead of .exe to save disk space. If you have a tablet you might want to try out the free version and upgrade to pro if you like it. Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom95521 Posted December 19, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2021 I was able to program 20 radio buttons using simple basic like syntax. Very easy to create a page of buttons. Currently slideshow names hard coded into button but I can also configure to read from a text file or URL. The next step will be to connect my Mac mini to my larger HDTV so I can watch .pteav shows and control the computer remotely over wifi.
