## Connection Management

| ## The connections window allows you to control two or more mrViewers from a single interface, which can be useful for reviewing dailies. To use it, you first need to create a server at an empty port. The default of 4333 should be fine most of the time. Once a server is created, the clients can connect to it at that machine name and port. The machine name defaults to localhost which is a local connection to the local machine (two viewers running on the same machine). If accessing two viewers from different locations you need to specify the name of the remote machine as well as the port number. You can also connect the server or the client command-line, by using: mrViewer -p [port number] to create a server. mrViewer -t [hostname] -p [port number] to create a client. If all goes well, once created you will see in the server: {conn} [server] Created server at port 4333 And the client will connect with: {conn} [main] Start client at localhost, port 4333 {conn} [client] Trying 127.0.0.1:4333... {conn} [client] Connected to 127.0.0.1:4333 From then on, you will see different {conn} messages every time the two instances of mrViewer acknoledge each other about a change.
