Improving a conference’s performance

Improving performance if you’re the presenter

If you're presenting a conference and you find that some participants are seeing events on your desktop several seconds after they happen, you can try a number of things to help speed up the updates:

Use a solid-color desktop rather than a complex wallpaper.

Disable animations or fades in list boxes, windows, menus, tool tips, and so on.

Reduce the screen resolution in your operating system's display settings or share only a portion of the desktop.

The procedure for reducing the desktop resolution varies between versions of the Windows operating system. However, the option is always available in Control Panel > Display > Settings.

Avoid using the Fit presenter's desktop to window option if you're using a less powerful computer. If your desktop is the same size or larger than the presenter's, you can view the shared desktop full screen without using scroll bars.

NOTE: This can improve performance for slow computers, but not slow networks.

Improving performance if you’re a participant

If you're participating in a conference and you're seeing events on the presenter's desktop several seconds after they happen, you can try a number of things to help speed up the updates:

Avoid using the Fit presenter's desktop to window option if you're using a less powerful computer. If your desktop is the same size or large than the presenter's, you can view the shared desktop full screen without using scroll bars.

NOTE: This can improve performance for slow computers, but not slow networks.

Lower the level of Windows hardware acceleration by navigating to Control Panel > Display > Settings > Advanced. Click the Troubleshoot tab and drag the level of Hardware acceleration toward None. Test See&Share software's performance and lower the hardware acceleration more if necessary.

NOTE: This can improve performance for slow computers, but not slow networks.

If none of these options helps significantly, contact TANDBERG technical support.
