Thanks!The remote screen transfer speed of dynamically changing content (e.g. videos) over slow connections has been increased.

Technically, direct connection is not exactly the same as setting up RU Server. Basically, there are two connection types:I also tried port forwarding and callback for testing direct connection (which I believe is the same as setting up RU Server), and sound was slightly improved but nowhere near usable. Even Windows system sounds were non-existent.
I can recommend that you enable the "economy mode" and see if it makes a difference. It's in connection properties, the Network tab/section.I suspect RU just doesn't do sound very well over slow connections. Whilst we are on ADSL, it is a very congested network and I'm only getting 0.4Mbps upload despite having a 1Mbps sync speed. I also have a 1920x1080 resolution which is unchangeable so there's little more I can do to reduce the data.

With direct connection performance is better by definition. However, if RU Server is located very close to either side of connection (Viewer or Host) the difference should be unnoticeable.Sorry, I probably should have explained that I understand how a RU Server would benefit, but I was just testing for raw performance and a direct connection through a port forward would be the same as a local RU server with Internet-ID (please correct me if I am wrong).
