usbmuxd for multiple idevices - iphone

Question

By using usbmuxd with the help of following command..
tcprelay.py -t 5900
I am able to connect to iphone with VNC viewer by giving hostname as 127.0.0.1 and port as 5900.
By using above command i able to connect to the last connected iphone.
Now how can i connect to multiple devices at same time by using usbmuxd.
i studied in documentation of usbmuxd that we can connect to multiple devices.
I seen help but unable to workout on it.
can anyone kindly give suggestions.
Iphone is jail broken with veency, openssh installed
Thanks in advance.

In the latest version of tcprelay.py (http://cgit.sukimashita.com/usbmuxd.git, v1.0.8), multiple device support is not yet implemented. Commands are always sent to the first device:
print "Waiting for devices..."
if not mux.devices:
mux.process(1.0)
if not mux.devices:
print "No device found"
self.request.close()
return
dev = mux.devices[0]
This has to be changed to something like:
dev = None
while dev is None:
for d in mux.devices:
if d.serial == self.server.serial:
dev = d
print "Found the device %s"%str(dev)
break
if dev is None:
mux.process()
Here's the complete tcprelay.py, I'm using:
