--> "Use CopyRect"

    Values: "Yes", "No".
    Default: "Yes".

    The "CopyRect" encoding saves bandwidth and drawing time when parts of
    the remote screen are moving around. Most likely, you don't want to
    change this setting.

--> "Restricted colors"

    Values: "Yes", "No".
    Default: "No".

    If set to "No", then 24-bit color format is used to represent pixel data. 
    If set to "Yes", then only 8 bits are used to represent each pixel. 8-bit
    color format can save bandwidth, but colors may look very inaccurate.

--> "Mouse buttons 2 and 3"

    Values: "Normal", "Reversed".
    Default: "Normal".

    If set to "Reversed", then right mouse button (button 2) will act as it
    was middle mouse button (button 3), and vice versa.

--> "View only"

    Values: "Yes", "No".
    Default: "No".

    If set to "Yes", then all keyboard and mouse events in the desktop window
    will be silently ignored and will not be passed to the remote side.

--> "Share desktop"

    Values: "Yes", "No".
    Default: "Yes".

    Share the connection with other clients on the same VNC server. The exact
    behaviour in each case depends on the server configuration.

--> "Open new window" (no GUI equivalent, applicable only in the applet mode)

    Values: "Yes", "No".
    Default: "No".

    Operate in a separate window. This makes possible resizing the desktop,
    and adds scroll bars when necessary. If the server supports variable
    desktop size, the window will resize automatically when remote desktop
    size changes.

--> "Show controls" (no GUI equivalent)

    Values: "Yes", "No".
    Default: "Yes".

    Set to "No" if you want to get rid of that button panel at the top.

--> "Show offline desktop" (no GUI equivalent)

    Values: "Yes", "No".
    Default: "No".

    If set to "Yes", the viewer would continue to display desktop even
    if the remote side has closed the connection. In this case, if the
    button panel is enabled, then the "Disconnect" button would be
    changed to "Hide desktop" after the connection is lost.

--> "Defer screen updates" (no GUI equivalent)

    Value: time in milliseconds.
    Default: "20".

    When updating the desktop contents after receiving an update from server,
    schedule repaint within the specified number of milliseconds. Small delay
    helps to coalesce several small updates into one drawing operation,
    improving CPU usage. Set this parameter to 0 to disable deferred updates.

--> "Defer cursor updates" (no GUI equivalent)

    Value: time in milliseconds.
    Default: "10".

    When updating the desktop after moving the mouse, schedule repaint within
    the specified number of milliseconds. This setting makes sense only when
    "Cursor shape updates" parameter is set to "Enable". Small delay helps to
    coalesce several small updates into one drawing operation, improving CPU
    usage. Set this parameter to 0 to disable deferred cursor updates.

--> "Defer update requests" (no GUI equivalent)

    Value: time in milliseconds.
    Default: "50".

    After processing an update received from server, wait for the specified
    number of milliseconds before requesting next screen update. Such delay
    will end immediately on every mouse or keyboard event if not in the "view
    only" mode. Small delay helps the server to coalesce several small
    updates into one framebuffer update, improving both bandwidth and CPU
    usage. Increasing the parameter value does not affect responsiveness on
    mouse and keyboard events, but causes delays in updating the screen when
    there is no mouse and keyboard activity on the client side.


RECORDING VNC SESSIONS
======================

Current version of the Ultr@VNC Java viewer is able to record VNC (RFB)
sessions in files for later playback. The data format in saved session files
is compatible with the rfbproxy program written by Tim Waugh. Most important
thing about session recording is that it's supported only if Java security
manager allows access to local filesystem. Typically, it would not work for
unsigned applets. To use this feature, either use Ultr@VNC Java viewer as a
standalone application (Java Runtime Environment or Java Development Kit
should be installed), or as a signed applet. The code checks if it's possible
to support session recording, and if everything's fine, the new "Record"
button should appear in the button panel. Pressing this button opens new
window which controls session recording. The GUI is pretty self-explained.

Other important facts about session recording:

--> All sessions are recorded in the 24-bit color format. If you use
    restricted colors (8-bit format), it will be temporarly switched to
    24-bit mode during session recording.

--> All sessions are recorded with cursor shape updates turned off. This is
    necessary to represent remote cursor movements in recorded sessions.

--> Closing and re-opening the recording control window does not affect the
    recording. It's not necessary to keep that window open during recording a
    session.

--> Avoid using Zlib encoding when recording sessions. It's ok if you started
    recording BEFORE the connection to the VNC server has been established,
    but if you started recording during an active session, all Zlib sessions
    will be saved Raw-encoded (that is, without compression at all). Zlib
    decoding depends on the pixel data received earlier, thus saving the data
    received from the server at an arbitrary moment is not sufficient to
    decompress it correctly. And there is no way to say Zlib decoder to reset
    decompressor's state -- that's a limitation of the Zlib encoder. The
    viewer could re-compress raw pixel data again before saving Zlib-encoded
    sessions, but unfortunately Java API does not allow to flush zlib data
    streams making it impossible to save Zlib-encoded RFB pixel data without
    using native code.

--> Usually, Tight encoding is the most suitable one for session recording,
    but some of the issues described above for the Zlib encoding affect the
    Tight encoding as well. Unlike Zlib sessions, Tight-encoded sessions are
    always saved Tight-encoded, but the viewer has to re-compress parts of
    data to synchronize encoder's and decoder's zlib streams. And, due to
    Java zlib API limitations, zlib streams' states have to be reset on each
    compressed rectangle, causing compression ratios to be lower than in the
    original VNC session. If you want to achieve the best possible
    performance, turn recording on BEFORE connecting to the VNC server,
    otherwise CPU usage and compression ratios may be notably less efficient.


HINTS
=====

--> To refresh remote desktop in the view-only mode, press "r" or "R"
    on the keyboard.
