Use Cases
Achieving full-chroma visual quality in remote desktop endpoints without added bandwidth or GPU costs
In modern DaaS & VDI infrastructures, maintaining visual accuracy is essential for professionals working with 2D and 3D design, photo and video editing, medical image analysis, and other color-sensitive applications. These workflows demand precise color reproduction, smooth gradients, and razor-sharp detail, attributes that directly impact perception, precision, and decision-making.
However, most remote desktop solutions still rely on YUV 4:2:0 chroma subsampling, which reduces color data by up to 75% to save bandwidth. While efficient, this approach introduces color bleeding and soft edges, making it harder to distinguish subtle tones and fine details, especially in text-heavy or design-centric use cases.
Delivering true 4:4:4 fidelity, where every pixel and color component is transmitted, typically increases data volume by 1.5× to 2× compared to standard 4:2:0 streams. Some “lossless” or dual-encoder implementations can even require up to 40× more bandwidth and dedicated GPU acceleration, severely limiting scalability in real-world enterprise or cloud environments.
Conceptual Design
Remote Desktop LCEVC-Enhanced Pipeline for Endpoint True Color (YUV 4:4:4) Reconstruction
The proposed solution leverages Fluendo’s Remote Desktop Coding Tools and an MPEG-5 LCEVC-enhanced H.264 pipeline to deliver high-fidelity visuals without the traditional cost of 4:4:4 encoding.
By adding a lightweight enhancement layer that reconstructs chroma information directly at the endpoint, the system restores full-color precision while preserving the compactness and latency neutrality of a standard 4:2:0 stream. The result is near-lossless visual quality for image-intensive workloads, rendering every pixel, tone, and contour faithfully, without increasing bandwidth or GPU requirements.
Fully compatible with existing DaaS & VDI protocols and thin-client architectures, this solution integrates seamlessly into current deployments and endpoint ecosystems.
