Sync your PCs and control them remotely with Windows Live Mesh

[ignitednight]

If only the beta still existed. The new one sucks shit compared to it :(

@ignitednight What's wrong with the current one? I wasn't a beta tester so would be interesting to hear. Thanks.

[ignitednight]

@0Jebus0 The tray icon does nothing at all, the convenient tray news feed is replaced by an actual window that doesnt even show anything, you have no idea how long transfers are going to take, you can no longer right click to sync a folder, folders are no longer blue so you cant tell easily which folders are synced, the web interface in the current one is just terrible; the beta one felt like an actual live desktop, the ui looks like a messenger ripoff when the beta looked awesome...

[ignitednight]

@0Jebus0 ...you no longer have the folder appendages when opening a synced folder, using the remote desktop was much easier and only required the browser, and its much harder to share folders with other people/computers. The current one isnt bad compared to, say, dropbox, but as someone who used the beta a lot, its just so mind numbingly terrible that its impossible to keep using it.

Too bad this is ending in a few weeks.

So many clicks

What I want to know is if there is any security when connecting. So basically, if my friend and I put our computers onto the account, will they be able to control my computer without me knowing?

[chinazac]

is there a way to do screen sharing over computer remote control, having both video file played with audio on? e.g., I want to watch online movie with someone in real time over screen sharing, ALSO with sound heard for both side.

[chinazac]

is there a way or program out here that I can share the screen with someone remotely , with audio on? e.g., the typical situation is that I expect to watch online movie with a friend over the screen sharing, with the sound heard by both side.

thanks

A little lengthy but pretty thorough. I think I'll use Live Mesh to sync my PC game saves so I can access them from a different location. I'm thinking about eventually making a second gaming computer for a different location, and having my game save files synced would make playing a breeze.

thanks man.
