Fastest Server Settings

Post by JZB »

Does anyone know what the best server settings are? For example, does "Poll full Screen (ultra fast)" conflict with "poll foreground window"?
Apparently, it's possible to select both. Also SystemHokk.dll and DDEngine. Should I select one or both. What are the best settings? I can't find any documentation on this.

There is no fastest setting.

Capture method: ddengine -> know that changed screen parts
When ddengine fail systemhook -> give hints on changed screen parts (slower)

Encoder:
Bandwidth vs CPU needed to compress.
On a 1GB network video compressor unless you don't like the jpeg artifacts
On WAn with slow networks using heavy compression

speed depend on: data send time + time compress/decompress

If you have a slow network, using more compression can result in a higher speed as less data nee to be send
