• Local Cursor: Offers a list of different cursor shapes to choose from for the local mouse

• Video Settings: Opens a panel for changing the IP console video settings. IP console
features two different dialogs, which are for adjusting the video settings.
o Video Settings through the HTML-Frontend: To enable local video port, select this
option. This option decides if the local video output of IP console is active and passing
through the incoming signal from the host system.
The option Noise Filter defines how the IP console reacts to small changes in the video
input signal. Turning on the noise filter can help reduce video flickering that is often
caused by distortions, as well as lowering unnecessary bandwidth consumption. A large
filter setting needs less network traffic and leads to a faster video display, but small
changes in some display regions may not be recognized immediately. A small filter
displays all changes instantly but may lead to a constant amount of network traffic even if
display content is not really changing (depending on the quality of the video input signal).
Ultimately, the default setting should be suitable for most situations.
