Client Functionality

Postby CouchPotatoe on Sat Mar 13, 2004 3:38 pm

Just playing a bit with remote cllient and a couple of Q's

Is there anything (a doc) that tells me which events are not supported on a client but work on the server machine. Also which relate only to a local client and which other events globally effect all clients (in all zones). For example the window minimise doesnt work on a client but does on the main app ??

Secondly - what impact does the speed/power of the client have on the perceived speed of opeartion of a client ? I am guessing (and my usage is mainly music browsing in a large library with 5 audio zones) that a lot of the latency is due to firstly the network transfer speed and secondly/more crtically the server performance. Would investing in better client hardware be beneficial ? I already intend to max the performance of the server PC and use 100MB Ethernet.
