Low Latency

Latency shapes how a remote session feels. ScreenSharePRO connects the two machines directly over WebRTC and encodes with VP8 tuned for screen content, keeping the cursor and screen responsive rather than laggy.

At a glance

What makes low latency different

A direct peer-to-peer WebRTC connection and screen-tuned VP8 keep control feeling responsive.

  • Direct peer-to-peer WebRTC connection
  • VP8 video tuned for screen and text content
  • Only changed regions of the screen are sent
  • Adaptive quality that responds to network conditions

How we deliver low latency

Built for interaction

ScreenSharePRO streams over WebRTC, the same real-time transport used for live communication, and prioritises keeping the session responsive. Video is encoded with VP8 tuned for the mostly-static text and windows a remote desktop actually shows.

  • Real-time WebRTC transport
  • VP8 encoding tuned for screen content
  • Only changed regions of the screen are transmitted

A direct connection between machines

ScreenSharePRO negotiates a direct peer-to-peer connection between the two machines, so screen frames and input travel straight between them. If the network changes mid-session, the client reconnects automatically.

  • Direct peer-to-peer WebRTC path
  • Automatic reconnect after a network change
  • No manual configuration to connect

Adaptive to your network

Every network is different. ScreenSharePRO adapts video quality as conditions change so the session stays responsive rather than freezing, and per-session quality logs let you review how a connection performed.

  • Quality adapts to available bandwidth
  • Per-session quality logging for review
  • Sensible defaults that work out of the box
FAQ

Questions about low latency

What affects how responsive a session feels?
The biggest factors are your network and the content on screen. ScreenSharePRO connects directly peer-to-peer over WebRTC and encodes with VP8 tuned for screen content to keep control responsive.
Will it stay responsive on a slower connection?
The adaptive engine scales video quality to your available bandwidth so the session stays usable rather than freezing when the network is constrained.
Can I see how a session performed?
Yes. ScreenSharePRO writes per-session quality logs on both host and viewer, so you can review how a connection behaved after the fact.
