New features in MaxiVista v3

The best thing first: All new features have been implemented without bloating the program. We carefully reviewed and optimized the engine 'under the hood' and MaxiVista is still as compact and efficient as always.

Enhanced clipboard synchronization

MaxiVista now also synchronizes formatted text, bitmaps and files (Windows XP/Vista only) between the computer's clipboards:

Enhanced clipboard sync options

Exchanging data between PCs never has been as easy.

Improved Remote Control

The Viewer program can now operate as a Windows service which allows you to log onto a locked secondary PC:

You can also send CTRL-ALT-DEL to the secondary PC.

New displaying options

MaxiVista supports latest widescreen resolutions and ultra high virtual resolutions (up to 4,800x2,400 pixels) with new zoom/shrink-to-fit auto-panning modes and a freely resizable viewer program in window mode:

Up to 50% performance boost

New Intel-optimized compression algorithms and the network parameter optimizer increase the performance of the extended screen playback up to 50%:

Optimizer dialog

Wallpaper background pictures are now cached on the secondary PC for increased performance and to reduce network load. If using the JPEG compression method, MaxiVista recognizes areas of sharp contrast such as text areas and displays it without any JPG artefacts.

MaxiVista goes Vista

MaxiVista does now also work on Windows Vista and Windows XP/2003 x64 operating systems. Please note, that Windows Vista is only supported in classic display mode with XPDM drivers (more info).

Additional improvements

  • MaxiVista now remembers the last used mode (extended screen vs. remote control vs. mirroring)
  • Deactivation of extended screen can now be configured when secondary PC is being locked (screenshot)
  • Screensaver synchronization between the computers
  • Detailed network parameters settings to tweak performance (screenshot)
  • Customizable hotkeys for all major options (screenshot)
  • Plus numerous internal optimizations...
