About TightVNC?
TightVNC is a cross-platform open source remote desktop software application that utilizes and expands upon VNC's RFB protocol to enable remote control of another computer's screen. By employing "tight encoding" of areas, which combines JPEG compression with other forms of encoding, TightVNC optimizes the transmission of data. This software also supports video playback and allows for the play of DirectX games over a broadband connection, albeit at a reduced frame rate. Additionally, TightVNC offers file transfer capability and includes many other standard features found in VNC derivatives.
