Remotly v1.12.0 for PC is coming soon with 120, 144 and 240fps streaming to bring the lowest lag possible!

In this upcoming new version we are going to introduce 120, 144 and 240fps streaming to improve streaming latency even further!

Why is 120, 144 and 240fps streaming important for lag reduction?
In 60Hz streaming the video frame duration is ~16ms. To achieve zero lag we need to encode, send and decode video frames in less then 8ms (since the monitors on both ends are not perfectly synchronized a lag between 8ms and 16ms will usually result in a 1 frame lag).
If the remote display (server) outputs 120Hz and the the connecting device (client) has a 60Hz display we can stream more frames and reduce the initial lag by half. This will increase the possibility of a 0 frame lag instead of a 1 frame lag.

We are almost ready with the big 1.12.0 update that will include:

1. Improved auto-reconnection on low quality/slow networks (like HSPA+)
2. Detection of low quality/slow networks and auto signal downgrade (to lower resolution/bitrate/framerate)
3. Integration with https://www.maxmind.com/ to allow IP scoring of incoming connections (VPN detection etc.) for even better security (green/orange/red indicators will show the amount of safeness estimated)
4. Self-hosting will be finally ready
5. Improved drag and drop for file transfer (dropping directly on a specified remote folder or remote application)
6. Many more :)

Sorry for the delay but are still working on this big update. With 1.12.0 we are ditching AES-128-CBC and are switching to AES-256-CBC for all plans. Backward compatibility should work so connection to pre-v1.12.0 servers will be supported (as well connecting from old clients to new AES-256-CBC servers). Update will be highly recommended.
