PCoIP Session-Creation Steps and Actors

The steps indicated below are used and documented in the bundled sample code. Refer to the code for specific function calls, expected return values and error-handling requirements. The example C++ code can be found in the SDK package located at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pcoip-client/examples/minimal_client/main.cpp:

Changing Window Mode

Changing the Anyware Client Window Mode

You can use the Anyware Client in full-screen or windowed mode. Full-screen mode is recommended in most cases.

Activating Full Screen Modes

The Anyware Client provides two full-screen modes: one monitor and all monitors.

Changing the Language

Changing the Language

In addition to English, the Anyware Client also supports a number of different languages. During installation, you can select one of the supported languages.

To change the language in GNOME

  • In the Settings > Language and Region panel, select another language from the language setting.

To change the language on the command line

Connecting to a USB Device

Connecting to a USB Device

Remote hosts using the Anyware Standard Agent or the Anyware Graphics Agent can use USB devices that are attached to the client. When you connect a local USB device to your remote host it will be disabled on the client machine.

USB device connections do not persist across multiple PCoIP sessions. You must connect your USB device each time you connect.

Enabling PCoIP Ultra

PCoIP Ultra

The Anyware Client provides support for PCoIP Ultra, the latest protocol enhancements from HP. PCoIP Ultra is optimized for truly lossless support with bit-exact color accuracy and preservation of content detail at the highest frame rates.

Adding a Custom Logo

The Anyware Client for Linux can be configured in the Pre-Session mode to place a custom logo beside the Anyware logo. For best results, the logo should be a .png file with a transparent background, and ideally be of size 245x100 or smaller. The image is named "customlogo.png".
