For now, you can try connecting from the command line to lower the quality:
Which VNC server / connection type do you use? With x11vnc over wifi I tend to have a higher framerate and less lag than with vnc-viewerCode:presencevnc vnc://hostname 3
Also in terms of CPU usage, maybe you could cut screen polling in general when the app is minimized. When the app is made active again, the polling could continue. I however, am not sure what all needs to occur to maintain a connection. I'm not sure if the server would drop the connection if polling request aren't being accepted/requested. Just a thought though.

That's server-side only isn't it? It just affects how the server gets notified of changes to the screen, so there's no direct interaction with the viewer. And there's an open-source equivalent available (search for dfmirage).

This is really great software. It's much easier to use than some other VNC clients I've tried, thanks for the great work!
I'm having a problem with the shift and function keys, though. Control works fine, but shift and function are still sending the lowercase standard alphabet. Anyone else having this problem also?
I'm using PresenceVNC 0.4 to connect to an Ubuntu machine running X11VNC.

Could you try running x11vnc with the -dk option and see what it prints when you press shift/fn + other keys? (You may want to use a paste bin for the output)

A more full version of the log with all the preamble is at pastebin:

But the problem appears to be that PresenceVNC sends the Shift and Fn keypresses as well, and they are applied server-side by X11VNC, effectively cancelling out the application by PresenceVNC that was done before sending to the server:
Code:
####################################
# Pressing Shift+t ('T' character)
####################################
07/09/2010 10:12:18 # keyboard(down, 0xffe1 "Shift_L") uip=0 175.8804

07/09/2010 10:12:18 calling XTestFakeKeyEvent(28, 0) 176.2424
A similar thing happens with Fn+Space, with PresenceVNC sending a "ISO_Level3_Shift" down event, followed by an "at" character, which X11VNC then converts back to a "2" because the L3_Shift is applied.
Thanks so much for your help.

Thanks for the log, I can reproduce the behaviour with -noxkb -modtweak. Seems to be caused by the weirdness that are X11 keycodes...
Starting x11vnc with -nomodtweak should help
