Abstract
Techniques relating to managing multimedia transmissions in terminal services scenarios are described. In one instance, a method sends a user-interface component from a server to a remote client. The method further streams a media component for presentation on the remote client in combination with the user-interface component and wherein the media presentation is tracked but not displayed by the server.
Claims20
A computer-readable media comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed, perform acts, comprising:
- during a terminal services session, sending a user-interface component of a server desktop;
- responsive to receiving, from a remote client, a media presentation request for a media application on the user-interface component, streaming media to the remote client;
- and,
- tracking presentation of the media on a remote desktop at the remote client without presenting the media on the server desktop.
A method, comprising:
- sending a user-interface component from a server to a remote client;
- and,
- streaming a media component for presentation on the remote client in combination with the user-interface component and wherein the media presentation is tracked but not displayed by the server.
A computer-readable media comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed, perform acts, comprising:
- during a terminal services session, receiving a user-interface component;
- accepting a media stream corresponding to a media presentation request;
- generating a remote desktop experience by combining a media presentation with the user-interface component;
- and,
- acquiring geometry updates regarding the media presentation relative to the remote desktop.
