MultiVNC is a cross-platform SSH-enabled VNC viewer based on LibVNCClient. The desktop version uses wxWidgets and runs on Unix, Mac OS X and Windows. There also is an Android version.

The roadmap for future developments regarding the project can be found here.

• Support for most VNC encodings including Tight.
• TLS support, i.e. AnonTLS and VeNCrypt, including support for self-signed certificates.
• Support for SSH-Tunnelling with password- and privkey-based authentication.
• Unicode copy & paste to and from the VNC server.
• Discovery of VNC servers advertising themselves via ZeroConf.
• Bookmarking of connections.
• UltraVNC Repeater support.
• Supports server framebuffer resize.
• Experimental support for MulticastVNC.

• Several connections with one viewer using tabs.
• Listen mode (Reverse VNC). Via tabs it's possible to listen for and serve multiple incoming connections.
• Record and replay of user input macros.
• Multi-sync input where input to one connection is replicated to others.
• Under X11, seamless control of the remote side by moving pointer over the (default upper) screen edge. Borrows heavily from x2vnc by Fredrik Hübinette [email protected], which in turn was based on ideas from x2x and code from vncviewer.
• Simple, loggable statistics.

• Import and export of saved connections.
• Virtual mouse button controls with haptic feedback.
• Two-finger swipe gesture recognition.
• A super fast touchpad mode for local use.
• Hardware-accelerated OpenGL drawing and zooming.

To get bleeding-edge packages built from the master development branch, navigate to the list of CI runs, select the last successful one and download the wanted artifact.

After cloning the repo, do

   git submodule update --init

Depending on which OS you are on, you end up with a debug version packaged as a .deb, .dmg or .exe you can install:

   mkdir build
   cd build
   cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
   cmake --build .
   cpack

   conan install . --output-folder=build --build=missing -s build_type=Debug
   cd build
   cmake .. -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE="conan_toolchain.cmake" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
   cmake --build .
   cpack

See the Android version's README.

You can get a modified libvncserver/libvncclient at https://github.com/LibVNC/libvncserver/tree/multicastvnc - this is the same library that MultiVNC uses internally.
