PCoIP Ultra

PCoIP Ultra

The Software Client for Linux provides support for PCoIP Ultra, the latest protocol enhancements from HP.

PCoIP Ultra enhancements are controlled on the Anyware agent. There is no configuration required on the Anyware Client.

Important: PCoIP Ultra is Enabled by Default

Connection Health Monitor

Anyware Connection Health

The Connection Health Indicator gives you quick feedback on the quality of your active PCoIP session, including a general status indicator and several specific metrics that you can use to troubleshoot connection problems.

Language Support

Language Support

The Software Client for Linux's interface will automatically use the operating system's language setting, if it is supported.

The interface language can be changed to any of the following supported languages:

Relative Mouse

Relative Mouse Support

Relative Mouse is a method of translating mouse movements as a delta from the last mouse position rather than a move to an absolute position on the screen. This type of mouse control is used in many CAD/CAM, Visual Effects and First-Person Gaming software. In a CAD program you may want to control an objects orientation in 3-D with mouse movements.

Displays

Displays

The Anyware Client supports a maximum of four displays and a maximum resolution of 4K UHD (3840×2160).

Monitors can be arranged in a vertical line, a horizontal line, or as a 2×2 box display. They can be used in any standard rotation (0°, 90°, 180°, or 270°), with any monitor as the primary display.

Note: Using multiple high-resolution displays

Collaboration

Collaboration

PCoIP Ultra Collaboration enables a PCoIP session user to share their session with multiple remote collaborators using Anyware Software Clients.

Client Modes

Client Modes

The Software Client for Linux supports multiple performance modes to suit different types of workloads. Performance modes are described next. To change the client mode, see Selecting a Client Mode below.

Info

The High Performance (Legacy) mode is no longer supported.

Audio

Audio Support

Stereo audio output and mono audio input are supported and enabled by default. When an audio device is enabled and used in a session, it is saved as user preferences, and becomes available as the default audio for future sessions.

Audio input devices should not be bridged to the remote session. Audio input devices are locally terminated and utilize local OS audio drivers. A bluetooth headset can be supported locally, but cannot be bridged.

  1. If you are in a full-screen mode, reveal the Software Client for Linux menu bar by moving the mouse cursor to the top of a display.

  2. From the Software Client for Linux menu bar, select Connection > Disconnect.
