HP Remote Graphics Software 6.0 User Guide

●
Remote USB—Many USB devices connected to the local computer can be virtually attached to
and accessed by the remote computer. Some USB devices, such as webcams, are not
supported.
NOTE: Remote USB is not supported when the remote computer is running Linux.
●
Selective screen updates—When Advanced Video Compression is not selected, only the
portions of the screen that change are captured, compressed, and transmitted from the remote
computer to the local computer, further improving performance.
●
Security—RGS supports many security features, including encryption of the pixel data sent from
the remote computer to the local computer.
●
Windows Event Logging—Network outages or loss of connectivity between a Receiver and
Sender can leave a desktop session running without supervision. To safeguard running
applications, customer-designed agents can monitor the status of connections to determine if
termination of applications is required. Windows event logging provides a mechanism for agents
to determine the status of the connection between the Receiver and Sender.
NOTE: For a description of new features and other late-breaking topics, see the README.txt file in
the installation directory of either the RGS Receiver or RGS Sender.
