• Video Settings

Opens a panel for changing the PS/2 IP-KVM switch video settings. PS/2 IP-KVM
switch features two different dialogs, which influence the video settings.

Video Settings through the HTML-Frontend

To enable local video port, select this option. This option decides if the local video
output of PS/2 IP-KVM switch is active and passing through the incoming signal
from the host system.

The option Noise Filter defines how PS/2 IP-KVM switch reacts to small changes in
the video input signal. A large filter setting needs less network traffic and leads to a
faster video display, but small changes in some display regions may not be
recognized immediately. A small filter displays all changes instantly but may lead to
a constant amount of network traffic even if display content is not really changing
(depending on the quality of the video input signal). All in all the default setting
should be suitable for most situations.
