telnet-relay

A simple program that acts as a telnet relay, allowing many clients to connect to one server. Useful for strange servers which only allow a single client, such as Blackmagic HyperDecks (in certain scenarios).

Installation and Usage (Windows, macOS, and Linux)

Download and run the executable file for your OS from the latest release. Be sure to provide the --connectToHost argument, like so:

telnet-relay.exe --connectToHost 192.168.1.50

Since this was developed with HyperDecks in mind, it defaults to having some HyperDeck-specific behavior enabled. To disable this, pass the --no-hyperdeck argument.

Development

Make sure you have Node.js 18 and Yarn installed, then:

git clone https://github.com/alvancamp/telnet-relay.git
cd telnet-relay
yarn
yarn build
yarn start --connectToHost 192.168.1.50
