[Vnc2swf-users] Using vnc2swf on a server to record multiple machines

[Rizzo, R. S R. C. S. <Ron...@us...>]

I apologize if this was received twice.  I sent a similar message on Friday, but I don't see it posted so I think it might have gotten lost.  I sent that message before subscribing to the list, which might be the problem also.

I'm trying to use vnc2swf on a server running windows XP.  I'd like to have vnc2swf record screen captures from a couple machines at once.  I start off by starting 2 instances of vnc2swf.  After some investigating I've found out that all instances of vnc2swf after the first don't actually record, they have an error because they are trying to open and write to the same temp file that the first instance is using.  They appear to be recording though because you can save the .swf file after you stop it, but that .swf file will be the exact same as what the first instance of vnc2swf recorded.  Is there any way to specify where the temp file is written, or to force the temp file to have a semi-random name?

Currently there's no way to change the temp directory from the GUI
interface.  Why don't you try a command-line prompt?
