Hi. We could not reproduce such behaviour, could you kindly answer some questions so we can investigate it?
– What is the NoMachine version installed on server side?
– What is the Android device model?
– Are you starting the connection through a LAN discovered server item, or by using a manual connection (configured with the wizard)?
– What is the reason why the server goes offline sometimes? For example is the server switched off, or is the device changing the subnet?Please note that for the way the LAN discovery works the client could require some time to receive the information about the server, even if it should never take more than one minute or so.
Hi. The servers discovered in LAN are not visible in the list of connections when they’re not available: starting that connection would fail because the host doesn’t exist or the same IP could be used by a host in a different LAN.
You can create a static connection to that server by starting the wizard with the ‘New’ button, then use the server IP (you can read it by editing the LAN discovered server item) to complete the creation.Switching to VP8 would not help because, as I said, the H.264 codec is only one of the reasons why there is a limit. We’ll release shortly (couple of weeks) the version with the improvement I’ve explained.
Hi.
The maximum resolution is limited for a bunch of reasons (e.g. H.264 has a maximum frame size), but we’ve implemented some improvements allowing us to be more complaisant. 🙂 Thanks to this, in our testing version we’ve doubled the maximum resolution.
The change is documented here so you can subscribe to be informed when it’ll be released:https://www.nomachine.com/FR09Q03868
If you’re connected to a virtual desktop and if your client supports a resolution width bigger than 4096 you can enable the remote resize (from Display toolbar) and increase the window size up to the resolution you need. The client will try to reach that resolution to work around the custom resolution size constraints.
We’ve worked on a solution like this years ago, but during our testing the experience with some games was not very friendly because the mouse pointer was released in the worst moments! 🙂 Even after some tweaking we never reached a perfect solution covering all test cases, so in the end we gave up. Since you’ve shown some interest we could eventually include this pointer release mode through a configurable option. I’ll discuss it with UI designers.
Thank you for your feedback. 🙂Thank you for your feedback, I’ll make sure we track it and find a way to inform how the mouse pointer grabbing works.
I don’t have a timeframe for the release, but it is something we really want to include so I’m quite confident we can start working on it immediately after releasing the next big version (which is pretty close).
Hi.
Did you consider toggling keyboard grabbing with Ctrl + Alt + K (default) and keeping always on the pointer grabbing (Ctrl + Alt + Left click to release it)?Hi. We’ve no such feature at the moment, but we plan to implement something that can help you:

You would place the window showing monitor <4> on monitor <2>, etc.
Hi. Please tap&hold the NoMachine application icon, select the ‘App info’ item (or do the same by going through Settings), select Permissions settings and verify that “Storage” permissions are granted.
Hi. You could protect the file
$HOME/.nx/config/player.cfgby changing the ownership to (for example) root:wheel and removing the write access to other users/groups, so users with lower access rights will not be able to store new settings. Please note, NoMachine client will still apply the changes requested by any users, but every time the application will be started it’ll use settings stored in the write protected CFG file.Your problem really seems similar to the one described here:

Would you like to test a package implementing the fix for that issue? If you agree, we’ll contact you by e-mail.
Hi Andrea.
Could you open the Keyboard Viewer on the server and verify if the Fn key is reported as pressed when the problem occurs? In order to open the Keyboard Viewer you should open Keyboard settings and check the boxes “Show Input menu in menu bar” and “Show keyboard and emoji viewers in menu bar”, then use the Input menu in the menu bar.Hi Adam.
We’re actually already grouping windows in the taskbar, but while looking for issues we’ve found a possible wrong configuration occurring when installing NoMachine through software updates. If you didn’t do it already, could you install the most recent version by using the installer available on our website, please? If you did it already, please share any useful information so we can troubleshoot the reason why the application model ID is getting ignored.About the interface, we’re currently working on a design change diverging from the possibility to have a window with multiple tabbed connections, but we’ll store your proposal in an internal feature request and we’ll evaluate it for future changes.
Please verify that

If the authentication keeps failing after installing at least one of them, then send here the output of commandsudo -l.
