Is Remote Monitoring (like Chromium Debugging) possible from remote?

Hey There

We use a XD2055 to control an interactive installation. The presentation only contains a HTML Widget with all the logic and we use Nexmosphere Sensors as inputs. Since the customer is located over 5h of drive from our office, we want to make sure to have remote access to the player. 

Because we are working with a HTML Widget, it would be the best option to have access to the Chromium Debugger from remote. Am I right in the assumption,  that this is not possible from outside the local network? 

If yes, is there any other option beside the Remote Diagnostic Webserver with the Player Log to debug the HTML Widget from remote in case of an error?

    You're correct. Remote debugging of the Chromium Debugger is typically limited to the local network1. However, there are alternative options you can consider for remote debugging your HTML Widget:

    1. RemoteJS: This tool allows you to remotely debug JavaScript applications running on any device or browser.

    2. Weinre (WEb INspector REmote): An open-source tool that lets you inspect and debug web pages on remote devices.

    3. Mobile Debug: A lightweight JavaScript file that provides basic debugging tools for HTML, XMLHttpRequests, and a console.

    These tools can help you debug your HTML Widget remotely, even if you're not on the same local network.
