It allows us to access the MainFM computer network remotely, which is useful for all kinds of reasons, eg overseas user access, last minute emergencies, tech access, show planning, folder management, saving unnecessary trips to the station for small tasks&#8230;and the list goes on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:17px\">If you don&#8217;t know about it, or how to set it up to use it, the image below shows where you can find instructions on <em>The Hub<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized has-custom-border\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mainfm.net\/hub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-924\" style=\"border-width:2px\" width=\"725\" height=\"653\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mainfm.net\/hub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image.png 966w, https:\/\/mainfm.net\/hub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image-300x270.png 300w, https:\/\/mainfm.net\/hub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/image-768x692.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 725px) 100vw, 725px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>So how best to use it?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are over a hundred potential users, but only one person can use Chrome Remote Desktop (CRD) at any one time. If two or more people access it at once, it&#8217;s literally like sharing a single laptop between 2 or 3 people &#8211; impossible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">People who do use it sometimes do so to do complex and time-consuming edits of shows and other audio, so it&#8217;s necessary to respect this work and allow users to finish and save things properly. People have been &#8216;kicked off&#8217; too early, or their files have been changed without warning. These situations must be avoided however possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The great news is that it&#8217;s actually pretty simple to use CRD fairly and respectfully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We have a booking system called Skedda. We use this to book 30 minute blocks of time on CRD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large has-custom-border\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"486\" src=\"https:\/\/mainfm.net\/hub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Heres-the-CRD-column-1024x486.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-925\" style=\"border-width:2px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mainfm.net\/hub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Heres-the-CRD-column-1024x486.png 1024w, https:\/\/mainfm.net\/hub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Heres-the-CRD-column-300x142.png 300w, https:\/\/mainfm.net\/hub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Heres-the-CRD-column-768x365.png 768w, https:\/\/mainfm.net\/hub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Heres-the-CRD-column-1536x729.png 1536w, https:\/\/mainfm.net\/hub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Heres-the-CRD-column.png 1875w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you click on a time in the studio space you want to use, you have this bar appear, as below at 9am:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full has-custom-border\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"721\" height=\"651\" src=\"https:\/\/mainfm.net\/hub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/1st-click.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-926\" style=\"border-width:2px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mainfm.net\/hub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/1st-click.png 721w, https:\/\/mainfm.net\/hub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/1st-click-300x271.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 721px) 100vw, 721px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can grab the small grey arrows to extend the booking. 30 minutes is minimum and 3 hours is max:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full has-custom-border\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"727\" height=\"638\" src=\"https:\/\/mainfm.net\/hub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/2nd-click.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-927\" style=\"border-width:2px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mainfm.net\/hub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/2nd-click.png 727w, https:\/\/mainfm.net\/hub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/2nd-click-300x263.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 727px) 100vw, 727px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you select the time you&#8217;ve chosen, you&#8217;ll see this next window.
