I have a raspberry pi B+ and i was trying to control it via tightvnc and there was an issue with it that would not let me control it. https://gyazo.com/5fd8565b7c2f95881aaac9395940e517I had to change the 0 to a one for it to work. but when i changed it to a 1 it would not work as i wanted it to. It would put the video preview that i wanted to see on the VNC on the other screen, the screen of the actual raspberry pi. Is there a way to control it via vnc, but acutally control it, like move the mouse with my computer?

it also says there is one already running as 0 but when i try to control 0 it shows this: http://gyazo.com/6daf0deeb24d48dfd15a46fe47bb3e39

): any ideas?

i had to start a server with vncserver :0 -geometry 1920x1080 -depth 24 also i used this tutorial: http://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/remote-access/vnc/

OFF TOPIC: I suggest every poll from now on to have "**CK EA" option instead of "Other"

TightVNC is a bit weird with this. It took me a while to figure out that:

 

:0 is :5900 and :1 is :5901 etc...

wait: are thoes ports? Why in the would would the ports change with that number? also how would that help me here? Im on the same network, ports shouldnt matter right?

hallo?

Heh. I didn't get notified for the first quote.

 

It's because the default VNC port is 5900, so tightvncserver acts like it's :0. So try port 1 in the settings and try 192.168.1.13:5901

Having these different, configurable ports is very helpful for those who want to use multiple sessions on the same host at the same time.

Sig under construction.

The raspberry pi showed the same error message, saying that connection was refused

Was there already a VNC server running? Did it say which port it went to?

 

Try restarting the Pi and trying again.

I try to start a vnc server on 0 when it starts up, but the code that i made already made a server open on startup for 0. So 0 does not work, 1 does.

I also restarted many many times, not just tried once and gave up.

one is not what i wanted, i wanted to be able to remote control it via VNC, but not in a separate desktop where when i type raspistill -p 999999 it shows up on the regular pi screen ):
