Best viewed full screen
Use the sections below to quickly validate video decoding, graphics performance, internet throughput,
and Citrix session policy quality (GOOD vs BEST) for XDESK Premium environments.
1. Ultra-High Definition System Testing — 8K @ 60 FPS
These videos are intended to stress test decode, render, and frame pacing.
If playback stutters, drops frames, or audio desync occurs, review endpoint GPU/driver, Citrix graphics policy, and available bandwidth.
Tip
Use YouTube “Stats for nerds” to confirm dropped frames and viewport render rate. Run fullscreen for a realistic test.

Quick Checks — What to look for
If results are poor, check endpoint Wi-Fi speed, signal quality, packet loss, and Citrix graphics policy alignment.
- Video: Smooth playback, minimal dropped frames, stable audio
- Visual apps: Responsive pan/zoom, no excessive lag
- Speedtest: Consistent throughput + acceptable latency
- Citrix: Status shows GOOD or BEST as expected
