[osg-users] OpenGL Support in Windows Remote Desktop Protocol

I've just discovered that my Windows 10 (Version 1511, last year's November Update) desktop machine now supports OpenGL 4.5 over RDP!

Apparently this has been in the pipeline for some time, but the only official word about it has been this post on an MS sysadmin blog with regard to a preview version of Windows Server:

https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/enterprisemobility/2016/01/11/remote-desktop-protocol-rdp-10-avch-264-improvements-in-windows-10-and-windows-server-2016-technical-preview/


But it's certainly working for me, using both the built-in Windows desktop RDP client, and the UWP store app. Anything that supports RemoteFX should work, I expect.

Perhaps somebody else ought to confirm that this isn't just me.
