QUMU or ICA Multimedia URL Redirection
QUMU utilizes ICA Multimedia URL Redirection. You are required to install a browser plug-in for this feature to work.
In earlier ThinOS Lite releases, ICA Multimedia URL Redirection was partially supported. In ThinOS Lite 2.4 release, a few enhancements are
made to ICA Multimedia URL Redirection for better performance.
Supported protocols
• RTPS HLS
• HTTP
Verifying QUMU Multimedia URL Redirection: While the video is playing, a noticeable lag or jump in the video window is observed when
you move the browser on the screen or scroll the browser. This behavior indicates that the video is being redirected.
To view the video sample, go to Kickodemo75.qumu.com/viewerportal/qumu/home.vp.
HTML5 Video Redirection
HTML5 Video Redirection controls and optimizes the way XenApp and XenDesktop servers deliver HTML5 multimedia web content to
users. From XenApp and XenDesktop 7.12, this feature is available for internal web pages only. It requires the addition of JavaScript to the
web pages where the HTML5 multimedia content is available, for example, videos on an internal training site.
The following server policies must be enabled:
• Windows Media redirection—By default this option is enabled.
• HTML5 video redirection—By default this option is disabled.
Verifying HTML5 Video Redirection—While the video is playing, a noticeable lag or jump in the video window is observed when you move

Sometimes, the initial playback does not work. After several seconds, the video is refreshed automatically, and you need to click playback
from start again. During this time, the video will redirect.

ICA SuperCodec
ICA SuperCodec is a H.264 decoder integrated on ThinOS Lite ICA client side. Server encodes the session image into H.264 stream and
sends it to client side. Client decodes the H.264 stream by SuperCodec and show the image on screen. It should improve user experience
especially for HDX3DPro desktops.
