[X2Go-User] Questions regarding mate/video quailty

[Harald Heigl]

Hi,

I have still the problem, that running video over x2go (per vlc or
mates default paroleplayer) is really slow and laggy.
server: Fedora 22, core2duo, x86, 4.0.1.19
client: linaro, cubieboard, armhf, 4.0.5.0

- I have testet with another x86 computer as client with no change
- I have connected the server with the other x86 client directly to
find out if the network has a problem, with no change
- I have tried iperf, but the speed of my gigabit lan is fast
- I have changed the graphiccard of my server (if that changes anything)

I have to admit, that my server is an old core2duo/computer, with old
radeoncard, ssd and 6GB RAM, but I just want to connect a single user
from another room inside my home. (and at max one physical user)
Fedora 22 was set up on the server 2 months ago with a fresh install
and a lot of packages like libreoffice, 2 browsers, ... . x2goserver
was set up from the repos.
Running videos directly on the computer is no problem.
Are there any limitations or something  I can check (logs, something I
can try out) or are there any minimum system requirements?

Thanks,
Harald
