UltraVNC is voorzien van een update naar versie 1.0.9.1. Dit programma stelt je in staat om een verbinding naar een andere computer te maken. Die computer kan dan worden bestuurd alsof je er zelf achter zit, waardoor het bijvoorbeeld mogelijk is om op afstand problemen op te lossen. UltraVNC, een aftakking van RealVNC, voegt extra functionaliteit toe, waaronder de mogelijkheid tot chatten en bestandsoverdracht. Het changelog van deze release laat de volgende veranderingen en verbeteringen zien:
Server + Viewer:Viewer only:
- Integrated support for SecureVNC plugin.
- Fix recursive clipboard issues when several VNC, RDP, VM, etc sessions are nested.
- Fix hangs in clipboard handling.
- Support for HTML and RTF clipboard formats.
- Support for Unicode clipboard text.
- Clipboard text is compressed when transferring.
- libjpeg library replaced with libjpeg-turbo which includes optimized assembly code for both x86 and x64.
- Zlib updated to latest version.
- DSM plugins no longer cause the server/viewer to send any additional messages or prefix bytes. This eliminates 41 bytes of network traffic per message.
- Immediately subsequent socket writes are coalesced to minimize unnecessary packets. This eliminates 40 bytes of network overhead for most messages, and more in other cases.
- RFB 3.8
- Fix crash when changing framebuffer dimensions with cache encoding enabled.
- Fix disconnect when changing framebuffer dimensions.
- Some menu reorganization.
- Throttling for mouse move messages to prevent saturating output buffer with pointer updates.
- Queueing implemented for outgoing writes; this eliminates some overhead from every message.
- Preemptive update requests.
- Enable cache encoding from commandline, /enablecache
- Fixed stability issue in Tight encoding (merged from TightVNC)
- Fixed recovery / resynchronization attempts in update handler due to bypassing DSM plugin when flushing input buffer, leading to unsynchronized encryption states.
