Abstract

In certain embodiments, a change to a display resolution (or other display configuration) to be used at a physical device may be effectuated without the need to reboot a virtual device associated with the physical device. In some embodiments, a display resolution for a portion of a virtual device user interface of a virtual device is determined based on display configuration information corresponding to a first physical device (e.g., a display resolution of the first physical device). The portion of the virtual device user interface is configured based on the determined display resolution, and the configured portion is sent to the first physical device. In some embodiments, in response to obtaining second display configuration information from a second physical device, the portion of the virtual device user interface is resized (e.g., without rebooting the virtual device), and the resized portion is sent to the second physical device.

Claims20

Dependent claims

A system for facilitating no-device-reboot dynamic resizing of a portion of a virtual device user interface based on display configuration information corresponding to a physical device, the system comprising:

a virtual device platform including a virtual device, the virtual device platform including circuitry configured to:
obtain, via a network connection, first display configuration information associated with a first physical device, the first display configuration information including a display resolution of the first physical device;
determine a display resolution of a portion of a virtual device user interface of the virtual device based on the first display configuration information such that the display resolution of the portion of the virtual device user interface is less than display resolution currently loaded for the virtual device user interface;
configure the portion of the virtual device user interface based on the determined display resolution of the portion of the virtual device user interface;
stream the portion of the virtual device user interface to the first physical device without streaming one or more other first portions of the virtual device user interface, such that the first physical device presents the portion of the virtual device user interface;
in response to obtaining second display configuration information associated with a second physical device, resize the portion of the virtual device user interface based on the second display configuration information without rebooting the virtual device, such that display resolution of the resized portion of the virtual device user interface is less than the display resolution currently loaded for the virtual device user interface, wherein the second display configuration information includes a display resolution of the second physical device;
and
stream the resized portion of the virtual device user interface to the second physical device without streaming one or more other second portions of the virtual device user interface, such that the second physical device presents the resized portion of the virtual device user interface.

2 more elements

One or more non-transitory, computer-readable media storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, effectuate operations comprising:

obtaining display configuration information associated with a physical device;
determining a display resolution of a portion of a virtual device user interface of a virtual device based on the display configuration information;
configuring the portion of the virtual device user interface based on the determined display resolution of the portion of the virtual device user interface;
and
sending the portion of the virtual device user interface to the physical device without sending one or more other portions of the virtual device user interface, such that the physical device presents the portion of the virtual device user interface.
