ScreenView0.2.5

Sharing data is one of best features of the Internet. Data is transmitted through documents and files with various extensions. However, an entire process is harder to share. Users must record it and send the video or employ a specialized software that broadcasts data in real time.

A simple interface with minimal options

ScreenView is a software application that enables users to share the activity on their desktops. The program is split into two parts: a server component that broadcasts data and a client counterpart that receives and displays the data. Users must keep in mind that the software requires Java to run either one of the applications.The interface of both server and client are minimalistic. Few parameters can be tweaked to alter the quality or speed of the feed. Users can scale down the quality of the broadcast, but cannot transmit a particular area. The application captures the entire desktop.

Broadcast the activity on your desktop to an unlimited number of computers

The server transmits data to a particular port and users can view the feed by requesting access to that port. From the client part, users can also capture any screen and preview the activity in fullscreen. The quality of the transmission depends on the quality of the network and the frequency of the broadcast. Users can send data in real time or at a specified interval of time.The application is designed to serve personal purposes. It is limited to a couple of features, and the feed cannot be secured in any way. However, beginners will have some difficulties in using the application. There is no help file to aid users.

A good idea with a limited design

In conclusion, ScreenView is a piece of software that enables users to share their activity via a network. Beginners are going to struggle to get things done while experts will not find sufficient functionality to make use of it. Nonetheless, the program did not hang or display any errors, although it broadcasts with a small delay.
