Intelligent Build to Lossless

Intelligent Build to Lossless is introduced in Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops version 2503. Intelligent Build to lossless is an evolution of Build to Lossless and can selectively set one or more monitors in Build to Lossless mode when needed. Note that in contrast, the regular Build to Lossless setting will result in all monitors being put into Build to Lossless mode.

Intelligent Build to Lossless is enabled by default for Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops version 2503 and later when a GPU is present on the VDA.When no GPU is present on the VDA, Selective Encoding without Intelligent Build to bLossless is used, which is essentially the same as how Selective Encoding worked prior to 2503.

For additional details on codec behavior and configuration, refer to the Automatic Video Codec Configuration documentation.

Intelligent Build to Lossless is specifically designed for mixed workloads in mind. Based on screen activity and other factors, Thinwire can dynamically enable and disable Build to Lossless on a per-monitor basis.
