Re: Citrix HDX redirection
HDX passes the job of rendering HDX-supported video (e.g. Flash video) to the local Citrix terminal, thus taking pressure off our Citrix servers. The user does not notice anything different, e.g. a YouTube video appears to be playing in the YouTube website window but in fact it's being rendered locally and positioned onscreen as an overlay where the user would expect to see the video. (YouTube uses Flash instead of HTML5 for HDX video playback). Using HDX allows Citrix users to watch HD videos with no lag or stutter. Unfortunately MS Stream videos do not appear to support HDX and therefore playback is extremely slow and glitchy, with stuttering audio and video, and a massive hit on the Citrix server's CPU.
