is it possible to remote control the same deck opened in 3 or 4 different computers across the world?

@msiqu thx for opening an issue 👍

currently its "1 remote control to control 1 deck" but I think it would technically be possible extend to "1 remote control to control X decks"

so far I limited" to "1 to 1" as I found the UX a bit easier to implement and to understand

would you have the need to control multiple deck around the world?

would you have the need to control multiple deck around the world?

My needs comes from the fact that when streaming presentations around the world (via video conf, like google meets or zoom etc) there's almost always a noticeable lag, and when the presentation includes animations/videos that's even worse.

So I thought: why are we not just streaming audio and remote control commands (arguably cheaper/easier to transfer quickly than video)? This way, each viewer around the world is only seeing the content from their own connection and only received remote commands from the presentation player. (there may be a product here, for corporate presentations ;P)

@msiqu I'm sold, I love the idea 👍

we are currently focusing our effort to unleash the beta version for our editor and platform but at some point, I'll have a look at that in a way or another, definitely!

thx for the cool idea

I built this for a private slides project with websockets, let me know if you need help implementing it :)
