  • Python dependencies, installed with pip install -r requirements.txt

Running

  • unpack and get into the rtremote directory
  • make sure start.sh has correct permissions, it needs +x to execute
  • make sure that start.sh (last line) executes correct Python version
  • edit the start.sh file, makig sure you set all parameters correctly
