Still on 1.51 here. Not sure if you had this fixed already but just in case:

Paste button is skipping repeating characters when pasting.

Eg, on ipad copy "http://www.radsoftware.com", remoter into xp, open firefox, click firefox address bar and press remoter paste button, confirm paste:
Result pasted into address bar = "htp://w.rafsoftware.com"

The tt in http and www in www get pasted as h and w respectively.

Thanks for reporting!

I found that this is server dependent. While tightvnc server in Linux handled the string correctly, the Mac server didn't. I'll look into some potential solutions.

Thanks for the report,

Raf.

This also happens on UltraVNC on Windows.

Not sure if it's the "speed" of pasting that's confusing VNC. Pasting using desktop based VNC clients seems to be fine.

I've added an inter character delay; and this seems to have taken care of the problem. It will be in version 1.6.
Please re-open if this is still an issue in 1.6 when it comes out. (Planned for next week).

Thanks!,

Raf.
