Screen sharing lag

I've seen another recent uptick in reports of this problem. Has anyone heard of a fix that doesn't involve turning off beneficial features?

It looks like it's still happening to others, even after updates that were supposed to have fixed it:

I'm glad (well not really, I guess) we're not the only ones who see this issue.  Shutting things off like VBSS and hardware acceleration isn't really a good option since those things are beneficial to most of our users.  I recently moved application sharing to its own QoS DSCP tag (AF31) and that seems to have helped, but we still get random reports of this happening.

We have solved it by disabling VBSS for Conferences.

We have had this issue as well and https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2768648s has made a significant improvement for a number of our users, resolving the issue for them. We're actually rolling that fix out to everyone via a registry key as it appears to address what had become a common complaint.

Hi Ben Killoy - Have you talked with support to make sure there isn't something wrong?  If you haven't yet, I would suggest you reach out to them, first.  This sounds like a frustrating experience & they might be able to help you troubleshoot.  That's not a normal experience.

If you are sharing slides, I would recommend loading them into the meeting rather than sharing them - you can see thumbnail previews when presenting, too. 

Maybe the community can share some best practices they've encountered when desktop sharing like making sure you are on a wired connection rather than wireless...

Thanks!
