FAQ

FreeRDP shipped with my distribution is rather old - is there a recent version?

The FreeRDP team provides nightly builds for some distributions have a look to Pre-Builds.

For ubuntu there is also a remmina/freerdp personal package archive available at https://launchpad.net/~freerdp-team/+archive/freerdp which provides daily builds.

For other distributions are currently no daily packages available so you will need to build from source - see compilation.

I am experiencing severe audio lag when viewing multimedia content.

For v1.0.x

Use the --data latency:X -- argument to specify the audio latency. X is in milliseconds.

Example command line:

xfreerdp -u user --no-nla -f --plugin rdpsnd --data latency:50 -- 192.168.x.x
