You just make sure you are using the correct versions of vMatrix and VLC player and VLC player is selected to play the video, then you are ready to “save”. This feature is supported by VLC player of 2.1.5 or newer versions and works automatically after the installation of vMatrix 2.x. This feature aims to significantly offload host-side cpu consumption on video playing and help support more video users per host especially for cases where simutaneous video play is often required.
VLC is a free and open source cross-platform multimedia player and framework that plays most multimedia files as well as DVDs, Audio CDs, VCDs, and various streaming protocols.īeginning from vMatrix 2.0, vCloudPoint introduced a new feature that allows local videos played on the zero client with VLC player to be rendered locally by the client processor instead of the host cpu.
