jvc-proxy 0.0.1

Using the server

Start the server, proxy between localhost and ‘my-projector’ on the usual JVC control port number (20554).

$ jvc_proxy -l DEBUG -r 2 -t 1 my-projector

Binds the server to an IP address / hostname that is accessible external to the machine (i.e. not localhost). Set logging level to DEBUG (will log the actual bytes proxied). Will retry failed connections to the projector twice. Allows 1 second timeout on network operations.

$ jvc_proxy --proxy_host my-pc -l DEBUG -r 2 -t 1 my-projector
