Do we have any chance to re-code the audio on the server into a lossy, lower-quality version before transmitting it to the client? I mean, we provide quie a few options for image compression, to match different bandwidth limits - would a similar approach be possible for audio as well?
As long as video uses the same connection this will not help, as the delay is the problem, not the amount of audio data. The only way to get it working is to encode sound and video together..... QoS might help a bit, but only under certain circumstances. I'm afraid at the moment we have to be happy with what we have (which is way better then everything else :-) ). <snip> Despite the fact that it will not solve this problem, the idea of compressing audio based upon bandwidth is very attractive.
I have found video on NX difficult even on a LAN. SPICE handles this much better. As I mentioned several times, as it matures, we may wish to slot it in as an alternative to NX in the X2Go framework - John
