Multimedia redirection requires client support as well as ffmpeg (or streamer). There's no client support inside the Windows client, so while it theoretically could decode video using a windows ffmpeg dll, there would be nothing to actually render the video onscreen. It's not terribly difficult to write the client portion, though (basically just rendering YUV frames; x11 client uses XVideo for this -- see `xf_process_tsmf_video_frame_event'). Additionally, the ffmpeg layer could of course be replaced with a new native Windows-only plug-in that would use Windows APIs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
