Vista Remote 2 Installation and Operations Manual 53
Color/Encoding
Auto select
When ticked, this option will
examine the speed of your
connection to the Vista Remote 2
unit and apply the most suitable
encoding method. This option is
suggested for the majority of
installations.
Preferred encoding
There are three manually selectable
encoding methods which are
accessible when the Auto select
option is un-ticked.
• ZRLE – This is a highly
compressed method that is best
suited to slow modem connections.
• Hextile – This method offers better
performance than the ZRLE when
used over a high speed network
because there is no need for the
Vista Remote 2 to spend time
highly compressing the data.
• Raw – This is a primitive, uncompressed method that is mainly used for technical support
issues. You are recommended not to use this method.
Color level
This section allows you to select the most appropriate color level for the speed of the
connection to the Vista Remote 2 unit. Where the connection speed is slow or inconsistent
there will be a necessary compromise between screen response and color depth.
• Full – This mode is suitable only for fast network connections and will pass on the
maximum color depth being used by the host system.
• Medium (256 colors) – This mode reduces the host system output to a 256 color mode
and is more suitable for ISDN and fast modem connections.
• Low (64 colors) – This mode is suitable for slower modem connections and reduces the
host system output to 64 colors.
•Very low (8 colors) – This mode provides very rudimentary picture quality and hardly any
speed advantage over the 64 color setting. You are recommended not to use this mode.
