Currently I use a 3 computer setup with 3 screens to 5box Rift, I use a program called Kavoom to link all the screens and have my keyboard send commands to the active screen that I select through standard ISboxer window layouts. This is all great as long as you don't map anything to a "special" key like either my G13, G510 keyboard or Naga mouse... With my current setup, any generic keys on my G-type keyboards being used as hotkeys won't work on my any computer but my main, so if I jump over to another screen and start spamming there, I have to have the G keys map to an actual standard key, or nothing will be broadcast (Kavoom sends the keys correctly if I map the G keys to 1, 2, 3, etc... just not blank G keys like I would prefer to use).
Could I use video feeds to essentially get around that problem by being able to switch to a video feed from another computer and have that feed essentially be the "current window" on my main computer (hence enabling the use of G "type" keys without any actual key presses assigned to them through the Logitech software?). I am considering setting up multiple video feeds anyway, so was wondering if this would be potential functionality that I could gain in addition to general action bar broadcasting and whatnot.
Alternatively, does anyone have a suggestion that would allow me to broadcast G or Naga keys across multiple computers?
Thank you
