Hi there, We have some use cases where (unfortunatelty) users are reviewing videos from a remote machine and using Guacamole to connect. The viewing of videos is where the problem lies. A 720p sample video viewed through Guacamole is very laggy and the audio pops in/out. It is not reliable. During video playback, all other mouse movements or commands are delayed on the server as well. I see on the server side when viewing a video that a guacd process spikes to 80-100%. We are also using Docker.
1. I assume Guacamole encodes the rdp and sends it as video in some way? Is there a way to use hardware accelertation such as intel vaapi/quicksync for this process and could it maybe help? 2. Is it believed Docker vs native would have any real difference in playing and streaming a video from an RDP session? Thank you. Steven T.
