Multimedia redirection (gstreamer)is supported HD 720P ?

[whb18718]

I am using gstreamer play video within the local area network (LAN) is not smoothly,
the video format is h264 and 1280*720 resolution.
but play 640×480 resolution and H.264 format is smoothly.
What reason is this?

video redirection depends on many factors.

1. you should build xfreerdp with many libs installed. please refer to freerdp wiki.
2. you should specify /multimedia parameter when calling xfreerdp.
3. the only player that supports video redirection is WMP, higher version is better, I think.
4. cpu/memory/gpu at xfreerdp side also make sense.

1. Run the command line arguments are as follows:
   xfreerdp /u:xx /p:xx /sound:sys:alsa /multimedia:decoder:gstreamer /v:xxxxxxx /f
   2.the palyer is WMP
2. i m sure i installed multimedia libs and when run xfreerdp video redirection the libs Called up through the debug log.
   i test use http protocol based streaming play HD 720P is smoothly. so i do not think it is my cpu/memory/gpu issue .
   Use playbin2 to test: gst-launch playbin2 uri=http://SERVER/test.mov .
3. when i run xfreerdp video redirection function ,why video redirection play 640×480 resolution and H.264 format is smoothly.but play 1280*720 resolution is not smoothly?

@whb18718 No promises, but I made many improvements in this area to improve video playback performance under gstreamer when using the fluendo codecs, but I have not had much success getting those changes upstreamed. It is almost a year old at this point, but the "tsmf" branch of my FreeRDP fork might work better for you in terms of gstreamer video playback performance.
