4. Transmission Encoding: This eld allows the user to decide how (the video)
data is transmitted between the local system and the remote host.
5. Automatic Detection: Select this option to allow the OS to automatically detect
thenetworkingcongurationsettingssuchasthebandwidthoftheconnectionline,
and transmit data accordingly. (You can only select one item from #5, #6 and #8.)
6. Pre-congured: This item allows the user to select the data transmission set-
tingfromapre-denedoptionslist.Thepre-conguredsettingswillprovidethebest
result because the compression and color depth settings will be adjusted for opti-
mization based on the network speed indicated. (You can only select one item from
#5, #6 and #8.)
7. Network speed: Onceyou'veselectedthepre-conguredoptionabove,youthen
can select a desired network speed setting from the selection menu by clicking on

menu by clicking on the arrow on the right. This item allows the user to adjust both
compression and color depth settings individually. (You can only select one item from
#5, #6 and #8.)
9. Compression: Data signal transmission is compressed to save bandwidth. High
compression rates will slow down network interfacing and shall not be used when
several users are connected to the network.
10. Color Depth: Click on the arrow on the right to select either 16 bit-high colors
or 8 bit-256 colors. The standard color depth is 16 bit-high color. This setting is rec-
ommended for compression level 0. For typical desktop interfaces, the setting of 8
bit-256 colors is recommended for faster data transmission.
