[X2Go-User] Questions regarding mate/video quailty

Hi everyone,

I have following szenario:
- server: Fedora 22 with gnome 3.16 (and mate)
- client cubietruck (mini client like raspberry)
- connected via 1Gb-LAN-cable
- using LAN quality and no compression (but I also tried 16MB-jpg with
no difference)

1) As I read in the docu, gnome 3.12+ is not supported, are there any
plans in the near future?
2) After installing mate on the server, I didn't see an option "mate"
on the client (4.0.1), only gnome, kde, lxde, xfce, so I choose "other
desktop" (don't know if it's called exactly so, cause I have a german
interface) and mate-session as parameter. Is this the correct way to
use mate?
3) And this is my main point: Working seems to be fine so far, but
when I start a video in mate (over x2go) it opens "parole media
player" (seems to use gstreamer) and it says: "gstreamer backend error
- Configured videosink video is not working". If I start videos with
vlc they come up but are really slow und showing only each 5 seconds
or so. If I use nomachine v4 they are not as fluent as if I sit in
front of my "server", but at least they are acceptable. I don't have
the gstreamer problems there. Is there something I can configure, does
someone know this problem? videos I tested with are h.264 encoded if
that matters.

Thanks in advance,
Harald
