Abstract

A method is provided to perform enhanced image encoding in a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) environment that includes a client device having a first graphical user interface (GUI) and a server device having a second GUI associated with the first GUI. One example method may include receiving, from the client device, user interface (UI) events based on which the first GUI is to be updated, and obtaining, by an agent on the server device, UI information relating to a UI element on the second GUI. The method may further include determining, by the agent on the server device, an encoding configuration for an encoder based at least in part on the UI information, encoding image data of the second GUI based on the encoding configuration, and sending encoded image data to the client device to update the first GUI on a screen of the client device.
