Choosing a Display Mode

Intel AMT’s KVM supports two methods of displaying the remote screen:

   Default desktop mode – the server detects display changes and returns them to the client, which will display the results locally.

   Graphics drawing mode – the server returns bitmap changes to the client application which then needs to use local graphics functions to paint the pixels to the screen.

The default desktop mode has better performance and is used by standalone viewers.

An embedded viewer integrated into a GUI application or displayed in a web browser will need to use the graphics drawing mode. This is necessary as the client library does not have full control of the view space.
