A couple of weeks ago Patrick Rouse posted a demonstration of our Multimedia Acceleration feature for VDI and Terminal Services. Since then we’ve received a incredible amount of very cool feedback. In addition to Patrick’s demonstration we’ve been showing another, different demonstration video to our partners and customers. Since everybody was so excited about this, I decided to put it up here as well.
This demonstration video of Provision Networks Multimedia Acceleration for VDI and Terminal Services is a “side by side” demonstration video. In the demonstration, one Virtual Desktop shows the user experience using “just” the RDP protocol and the other Virtual Desktop shows the user experience with the Multimedia Acceleration components installed.
The demonstration was created by recording the user experience of two 800×600 Virtual Desktop sessions side-by-side. Since this yields a rather large video with a big resolution, I have re-rendered the video to a maximum width of 1024 pixels so that it should fit on most screens.

Any word yet on when this will be released? I assume it’s part of the multimedia expansion pack?

What about multi monitor support? Are you addressing Window controls for true multi-monitor support? i.e: application windows not popping up between monitors and maximising across both screens etc?

In the 5.10 release we will have true multi monitor support. Some 5.10 the multi monitor features:
- Support multiple resolutions on different screens
- Monitor awareness in applications when maximizing (so the applications maximizes to the monitor that it is on)
- Applications will launch on the monitor they were last closed on
- The taskbar is only displayed on the primary monitor not on the secondary ones.
- Multi monitor support for published applications ( VDI and TS) as well as published desktop (VDI and TS)
