About "HWMonitorPro"

[mtchannel]

Hello everyone. Let me immediately move on to my question;
I have two computers that I connect to remotely over the same local network and they don't have monitors. I can connect to these computers remotely via network administrators and perform the operations I want. However, today a different need has emerged. On my main computer, I needed to see the cpu and gpu information (volts/degrees etc.) of the 2 computers. I have done the necessary research to ensure that this information comes to me with a single click instead of connecting remotely each time.
I found an application called "HWMonitorPro". I added it to my main computer and the startup of the computers whose information I want to access and made the necessary settings.I can now access all the detailed information of the other 2 computers from my main computer. (cpu/gpu/voltage/clock/memory etc.)
Sample images are below;

I researched a lot of skins, but I couldn't find a sample work for "hwmonitorpro" or I missed it. My goal is to make a beautiful skin with the information you see in the picture via Rainmeter and access it on my desktop whenever I want. The difference of "hwmonitorpro" is that you can see the information on other PCs over the network on a single PC. If Rainmeter does not support "hwmonitorpro", can you recommend a program that can read the information of PCs over the network and is compatible with Rainmeter?

I obviously can't test any of these, but as far as I'm aware of, there is no HWMonitor Pro plugin for Rainmeter (Rainmeter is freeware, HWMonitor Pro is not, you get the idea), although there were some enquiries about that more than a decade ago on these forums. Things you can try, since HWiNFO64 and MSI Afterburner both have plugins or ways to get data for Rainmeter (SpeedFan or Open Hardware Monitor / Libre Hardware Monitor have too, but they're less comprehensive):
- https://www.hwinfo.com/add-ons/ (for HWiNFO64, see the bottom of the page)
- https://www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/Remote-Utils/MSI-Afterburner-Remote-Server.shtml (for MSI Afterburner, see their forums)
- https://github.com/Demion/remotehwinfo (seems to be for both HWiNFO64 and MSI AB, might need compiling the source code first)
Hopefully, one of these will either create new entries for the remote computers like it happens for HWMonitor Pro, or will allow accessing a network webpage that you could then parse with WebParser.

HWiNFO can do this as well. However, you might need to use the "Pro" (paid) version of HWiNFO to do it, not sure. If you do use this, there are multiple ways to get data from the app to use in a skin.

HWInfo64 Pro can get data from a remote PC, but the HWInfo64 plugin which uses Shared memory Values is no longer developed and its existing implementation does NOT display remote machines' values in Rainmeter.

Disregard the above, I was wrong.

This is NOT correct. The problem is not the plugin, it is the skins you are using.

Also, it is not correct (yet) to say the HWiNFO plugin and SMV are no longer developed. The author is still active on the various forums; there just has not been any need to modify the plugin since 2016 since it still works with HWiNFO.

Besides what SilverAzide mentioned, how about the Remote Sensor Monitor addon for HWiNFO that I mentioned in my previous reply? That shouldn't require a HWiNFO plugin for Rainmeter, since it's just a webserver and you should be able to access the page created by it via WebParser. Of course, that's just in case the plugin method really doesn't work for you - which, according to SilverAzide, shouldn't happen.

I apologize, I shouldn't have talked about things I have no grasp upon.
Mea culpa.
Now that i understand how it skins have been configured, I was able to pull remote data from another machine and display it in skins.
Confirming it works, all that was needed was to add HWiNFOHostId=<your remote host id> to the skin for each measure.

Great news!
Don't worry about having another view on it earlier, we all make mistakes in judgement at times. The good thing is that we can exchange ideas that sooner or later get us on the right path to solve these issues.
