Hi Everyone!

One week delayed but it's finally ready! This big update includes an advanced virtual display driver which is easy to use in many use cases.
Please follow the short guideline below for start and please check tomorrow for an advanced tutorial for Physical PC and Hyper-V PC setups.

1. After starting the new v1.24.0 Remotly PC installer you will see this message:

Please note that Remotly Virtual Display Adapter Driver (later referred as Remotly VDA) will not install/uninstall in silent mode.
The first installation must be done by hand.

After pressing "Yes" you will see another message:

You can check "Always trust software from Mirillis" (that's us :)) or you can uncheck it (confirmation will be requested every next Remotly update).

After installation and starting Remotly please check Settings->Video:

Please notice a new drop down list "Remotly Virtual Display". By default it is disabled.
From the list of GPUs please select the GPU that should be used to render video on the virtual display (in example we can select iGPU Intel UHD 630 or Intel dGPU Xe MAX).

After selecting the GPU for rendering on the virtual display the image may blink for a moment and a new virtual display will be created.

IMPORTANT: A virtual display will be created automatically even when Disable is selected when all physical displays get disconnected.
This allows remote access to high performance GPU rendering without any display attached to the PC.
After reconnecting a physical display the virtual one will be removed automatically.

Limitations:
1. Free version supports 1 virtual display with max 1080p resolution (60Hz)
2. Home Premium version supports up to 2 virtual displays max 2160p resolution (60/120/144/240Hz)
3. Home Ultimate and all commercial versions support up to 3 virtual displays max 2160p resolution with HDR support (60/120/144/240Hz)
4. Unlogged users can't create virtual displays

Audio and virtual displays:
- If only virtual displays are available you must select either "Digital Output/SPDIF" or have some headphones attached to the remote computer in order to hear remote desktop sound
- In version v1.25.0 an additional fake sound driver will be available to make sure remote sound works in all situations
