Remote Mac Screen resolution

Yes, I have the enabled display menu and also tried the system preferences to change, but there also the maximum resolution is the one of the attached monitor on the server which is available in the preferences or display menu, not the resolution I like to have on my client.

Yes, I tried this also. But even if this would work, it would be a bad solution, though I don't want to plug and unplug the monitor every time I use it or not. I just want to turn off the monitor, access the Mac Mini by ARD, another time use the monitor directly - for sure then in the apropriate resolution.

I found a solution now, after digging desperately in the internet and trying out several scripts and command line tools which all did not work, also not changing the boot resolution.

I found a shareware tool called SwitchResX, in which you can define your own resolution, independant of the one of the attached monitor. This works really fine and I am happy with it now.

The only missing thing now is that I get the audio output on my client, the same way as the Microsoft Remotedesktop software does this for Windows servers.

Thanks a lot for your effort!

Right, I have to switch the resolution, but this is ok. For me it is important to have a higher resolution when accessing the server.

Thanks for the hint with airfoil. Unfortunately there is a latency in the transmission, even though the two Macs are on a gigabit network, the transmitted audio is cut in sequences. I don't know why, though the network transmission rate shall be sufficient.
