Does anyone have any recommended settings to get Citrix HDX to run effectively on the latest LX 10 firmware for IGEL? I have enabled HDX and when I try to play a locally rendered video or streaming a video from the web, the video starts clear and quickly pixelates and becomes unusable. This is not occurring when using Citrix via Mac or PC. I have tested this without HDX installed on Citrix receiver as well and have had similar results. I am trying with Citrix receiver 13.8.

Do you have the codec pack license enabled on the Unit?
@member There is a performance issue at receiver 13.6->13.8, so you will need a newer receiver, or use 13.5 or earlier.
@member You can see the performance difference here: jhmeier.com/2018/03/01/reduced-performance-with-citrix-linux-receiver-13-7-13-8-compared-to-13-5/
It’s fixed with receiver 13.9 available in some preview igel firmwares (there should be a download link posted here in slack somewhere)
Thanks gentlemen! I beginning my testing with 13.5 first to see if I see an improvement. I am looking forward to using the new LX 10 release when it becomes GA that will include the 13.9 receiver. I will update when I have more information. Thanks again for your input!
I just attempted a test with receiver 13.4.2 and the video plays correctly with the audio synced as well. The graphics are a bit soft, but nothing like what we have been experiencing! Thanks again for everyone’s input!
@member – I believe the codec pack came with the purchase of our LX UD6 units. I will check additional settings if you have some suggestions!
