Color Settings
Adjusting Color Depth
The Dambrackas Video Compression® (DVC) algorithm enables users to adjust
the number of viewable colors in a remote session window. You can choose to
display more colors for the best fidelity or fewer colors to reduce the volume of
data transferred on the network.
Video Viewer windows can be viewed using the Best Color Available (slower
updates), Best Compression (fastest updates), a combination of Best Color and
Best Compression or in Grayscale.
You can specify the color depths of individual ports and channels by selecting
the View Color command in a remote session window. These settings are saved
individually per channel.
