MS-RDPEVOR is the new Windows 8 video redirection channel. I looks for hot spots and sends that area as H264. It work OK for the most part with Window 8.1 / 10. We could hook XVideo calls to MS-RDPEVOR. That should work and be compatible with MSTSC but NeutrinoRDP and FreeRDP do not have this channel yet. MS-RDPEGFX GFX is even better as it's the whole screen. There's an option. I do have a surface command H264 extension that is working using the H264 codec(x264, nvenc, quicksync) but that old works with NeutrinoRDP with the client side extension. Have you tried the turbojpeg Xorg codec mode in xrdp devel yet? The is very similar to the H264 codec mode except bandwidth. Many option here but they all need some development. > I looked at vrplayer and xrdpvr code (built it for Ubuntu 14.10 and > 15.04) but this does not work for me at all, (contrary to what I read > in previous discussion it does not look like RDPEVOR).

When working, this is really interesting / optimal as the server load is really low. 1 to 5% Long term, this should be changed to use TSMF channel and VLC as the player. As with Windows Media Player, only videos played though VRPlayer are redirected.
