Does Multiplicity expose its broadcast state anywhere? Via a window title, registry key, named pipe, anything? I'd like to be able to tell via a script if broadcasting is currently enabled or disabled. Thanks!

Gotcha. I thought Multiplicity was capturing everything sent from the primary to another computer, regardless of software, as it was monitoring my keyboard and mouse.

Figured it out. The registry key names are decimal. I added a broadcast key for "G" on the keyboard which created a key named "71". Then I went in and renamed the key to "124" and restarted Multiplicity services. While the key doesn't show up in the GUI, I can confirm it still works! F13 -> 124 F14 -> 125 F15 -> 126 F16 -> 127 F17 -> 128 F18 -> 129 F19 -> 130 F20 -> 131 F21 -> 132 F22

Any update on this? I am hoping to utilize F13-F24, but Multiplicity seems like it is not able to detect them. How do I convert those keys to the numbers used in the registry under: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Stardock\Multiplicity2\HotKeys ?

Just to clarify then, since there's multiple things called Seamless... I am moving my mouse cursor from the primary computer monitor to secondary computer monitors. The remote desktop session in RDP is Linux and does not have any Multiplicity software installed since it doesn't exist.

Hello, If you have the regular Windows 11 Remote Desktop app open and have your mouse cursor in there, it seems the Multiplicity hotkeys to switch to another machine and broadcast are swallowed by the Remote Desktop and do not allow you to switch. I can reproduce it by clicking the mouse into the Remote Desktop and then pressing the hotkeys to switch to another computer. They don't move the mouse cursor to the secondaries. There's also an issue with Remote Desktop and the broa

Any update on this one?

I am getting a popup to upgrade, but the changelog is empty. What changed? It also doesn't list the version number it wants to update to. https://www.stardock.com/products/multiplicity/history

Can confirm, I also run into this one.

Hi, I'd like to customize the beep that comes from the broadcast keep. I've determined it's the Windows Beep service that makes this work. If I disable it, no sound plays. Two things: 1) Add notification on PCs receiving the broadcast that they are receiving a broadcast (like the primary PC shows when you're controlling another PC). 2) Allow to customize the sound played through the Sound control panel. I see there's other sounds available there that you can cu

Hi. I'm the original post creator. New features appear to be a rare commodity with Multiplicity, unfortunately. I tried messaging the developer directly during v4 beta and didn't get a response before v4 shipped. I don't think their primary use case for the software is for games, even though it appears to be getting more popular the last few years.

Hello, With Start11, I am unable to interact with taskbar/systray icons via left or right click when Start11 is set to "enhance the taskbar". How can I get this working again? I am unsure when it was last functional.

This is an EverQuest specific issue. You must have a keyboard/mouse connected, otherwise the game behaves erratically. You can connect it and just don't use it. Then Fake Pointer is not required.

Sean Drohan Stardock Product Lifecycle Manager [/quote] Seems like a bug to me. The setting indicates it would only work when no mouse is detected. But it is duplicating the cursor with a wired and wireless mouse connected. If you have no mouse connected, how are

Hello, It seems that the Fake pointer support when no mouse pointer is attached doesn't work correctly with a Bluetooth mouse, at least not the Apple Magic Mouse 2. When the option is enabled, it leaves a ghosted copy of the mouse pointer that follows the primary mouse pointer around. Spent a few hours digging into researching this, only to find Multiplicity was the culprit. See option I'm referring to and a video that shows the problematic behavior. I want to use this

[quote who="Neil Banfield" reply="6" id="3949428"] What do you mean by broadcasting? [/quote] This. Also have a feature request in to make the key combo and number of repetition configurable since this is prone to user error when gaming.

[quote who="sdrohan" reply="12" id="3949441"] We have reproduced the issue internally and a fix will be included in the next release. Note: This is only an issue on Multiplicity Pro, Multiplicity (the base version) it will work as expected. Sean Drohan Stardock Product Lifecycle Manager [/quote] Thanks!

Can support share the link to download Beta 2? Beta 3 broadcast is broken and I need to get it working again.

[quote who="sdrohan" reply="6" id="3949385"] Quoting xerxes00, reply 5 Seamless connections is broken with the secondaries. 'Broken' generally means 'they don't work at all'... Do you mean to say 'they work but there are issues' ? [/quote] Correct. It's not really usable in its cu

[quote who="PhoenixRising1" reply="7" id="3949389"] So far speed and connection via KVM seems to have improved for me on this build. I am no longer having random disconnects when transferring big files today. I will report if that changes. [/quote] Does broadcast work with Beta 3 for you? It is not for me. I reverted to Beta 1 and it's working again. Didn't save the Beta 2 installer so unfortunately, I am stuck with Beta 1 for now.

Seamless connections is broken with the secondaries. They show as tiny boxes and you can't make the text out. Additionally, they don't see to honor their position. For example, the middle secondary "KPA" when mousing up from that one, it is taking the mouse cursor all the way to the far right of display 2 above it. It should be going to the far left.

Installed Beta 3 on all machines. Broadcast key is broken and does not work. Worked fine in Beta 2 and was used extensively. Everything else appears to work fine. The broadcast key does not trigger the audio to indicate it is broadcasting. Nothing happens when left control is hit 3 times in rapid succession. Tried toggling the key broadcast on and off. Tried Restarting Multiplicity processes. Tried rebooting. Multiplicity 4 Beta 3 Pro Windows 11 23H2 22631.43

No, they are 8th gen processors. I ended up resolving this myself. What I tried: 1) Uninstalled Multiplicity Beta 2. 2) Ran Multiplicity cleanup/removal tool from Support. 3) Installed Beta 1. Did not install properly. When trying to launch config/app manually, it said it wasn't installed properly and asked me if I wanted to install. Clicked yes and nothing happens. Files are there in Program Files. 4) Repeat Steps 1-2. 5) Installed Beta 2. Beta 2 is broken
