I've tried nearly all of the leading remote desktop technologies that I could find.
Remote Video is hard to improve on any of them without taking a different approach that frame buffer forwarding.
So NoMachine's NX, Citrix's remote desktop technology etc all are limited by bandwidth constraints of trying to
push full motion video frame buffers across a WAN link.. no matter how good the compression. Which by the
way also affects video quality because of delay.
There are solutions out there that are trying to address this in a different architectural way such as the
Spice client & server architecture which does the video processing at the client and more or less sends gui
control cmds over the net.
There is also PCoIP (PC over IP) which works very well at full motion video and also 3D video BUT it requires
hardware installed at the server side and also a PCoIP card at the Client side... so its not cheap.
I think there are 2 other things that should impact the performance current NX related solutions:
