| 7 | <p>The VRDP server can redirect video streams from the guest to the RDP client. Video frames are compressed using
|
|---|
| 8 | the JPEG algorithm allowing a higher compression ratio than standard RDP bitmap compression methods. It is
|
|---|
| 9 | possible to increase the compression ratio by lowering the video quality. </p>
|
|---|
| 10 | <p>The VRDP server automatically detects video streams in a guest as frequently updated rectangular areas. As a
|
|---|
| 11 | result, this method works with any guest operating system without having to install additional software in the
|
|---|
| 12 | guest. In particular, the Guest Additions are not required. </p>
|
|---|
| 13 | <p>On the client side, however, currently only the Windows 7 Remote Desktop Connection client supports this feature.
|
|---|
| 14 | If a client does not support video redirection, the VRDP server falls back to regular bitmap updates. </p>
|
|---|
| 15 | <p>The following command enables video redirection: </p>
|
|---|
| 16 | <pre xml:space="preserve">VBoxManage modifyvm <varname>VM-name</varname> --vrde-video-channel on</pre>
|
|---|
| 17 | <p>The quality of the video is defined as a value from 10 to 100 percent, representing a JPEG compression level,
|
|---|
| 18 | where lower numbers mean lower quality but higher compression. The quality can be changed using the following
|
|---|
| 19 | command: </p>
|
|---|
| 20 | <pre xml:space="preserve">VBoxManage modifyvm <varname>VM-name</varname> --vrde-video-channel-quality 75</pre>
