HP Remote Graphics Software 7.0

Performance settings
The performance settings allow you to improve the interactive experience. Typically, these
adjustments will be made when working with highly interactive applications (such as a CAD
application) in a low-bandwidth or high-latency network environment.
The following table describes the settings available in the Performance tab.
Table 6-2 Performance settings
Setting Description
Force full screen image updates Forces the entire screen to update when any part of it changes.
Select this option if image tearing is present. This option can, however,
reduce the update rate.
NOTE: This option is disabled when Advanced Video Compression
is enabled.
Advanced Video Compression on Sender Enables Advanced Video Compression.
IMPORTANT: See
Advanced performance features on page 45 for
information about the recommended usages of this feature.
Image Quality Sets the maximum image quality.
When not using Adaptive image quality, RGS will maintain the image
quality specified by this option. When selecting Adaptive image quality,
RGS will use this option’s setting as the target image quality when the
updates-per-second value allows.
NOTE: This option is duplicated on the Remote Display Window
toolbar.
Increase text rendering quality Improves image quality for images containing significant amounts of
text or lines.
Because of the high contrast ratio between adjacent pixels, images
containing text or lines often don’t compress well. Such high contrast
cases will be compressed in a manner to better preserve their visual
quality, but at the possible expense of higher network bandwidth and/
or lower image update rates. HP recommends that you experiment
with different settings of the image quality slider and this checkbox to
find the optimal settings for your environment.
NOTE: This option is disabled when Advanced Video Compression
is enabled.
Adaptive image quality
Minimum image quality
Target update rate
When Adaptive image quality is enabled, RGS will begin to degrade
the image quality down to the Minimum image quality setting (from 0–
100) anytime the updates-per-second value falls below the Target
update rate (from 0–30 updates per second).
NOTE: These options are disabled when Advanced Video
Compression is enabled.
TIP: See
Optimizing RGS performance on page 45 for more information about ways to optimize RGS performance.
