I was looking forward to using my Logitech G25 wheel via Steam Streaming. However although the driver's are installed on both server (Win 10 x64) and client (Win 10 x64) PCs, I am unable to get VirtualHere working.
The connection from client to server works fine and I can successfully use other devices including a multi-card reader and the USB mouse. When I attempt to use the G25, I get a message on the client (something like "Unable to connect" or "An error occurred" and the server log shows a failed capture with the reason "CreateFile failed".
I am running VirtualHere as Administrator on both client and server.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Ian.

OK try this first:
In the virtualhere client right click USB Hubs->Windows Server->G25 and select "Custom Event Handler..." then paste this line in and click OK.
onReset.$VENDOR_ID$.$PRODUCT_ID$=
Now try to use the G25 via virtualhere, does it work ok now?
Yes I had tried that and it
Yes I had tried that and it didn't seem to resolve the problem (although it is required).
I've since installed a different PC with SteamOS + VirtualHere Linux Server and the G25 is now working as expected with the original client and no other changes. I suspect an unusual issue with the Windows based VirtualHere server.
VirtualHere works impressively well! G25 + SteamOS + VirtualHere + ProjectCars works great. I also have a SteamLink on order.
Thanks,
Ian.

OK great at least its workinng for you. The G25 and some wheels are delicate and require the USB reset command to be disabled and a modeswitch to occur...
