I am using Remote Desktop to connect to a Windows 7 x64 PC. The OS allows concurrent remote desktop connections.
I want to be able to play videogames remotely, but I noticed that when using remote desktop the game moves slowly, although when playing locally it moves OK. I mention that no other user was connected when playing. I've noticed that the network throughput shown in task manager is around 75Mbps.
If I connect using AnyDesk, the network throughput is max. 10Mbps and the game moves OK. So this indicates that the problem is related with insufficient network bandwidth. But AnyDesk is not a solution since the PC needs to allow multiple concurrent remote desktop sessions.
I've tried lowering the settings of Remote Desktop to: 1024x764, 15 bit color, no other options allowed (e.g. visual styles, animation...), and the game moves a little bit better (not as good as when using AnyDesk), and the throughput drops to around 60Mbps. However, it is not acceptable for playing.
So my question is how can I lower the Remote Desktop throughput (to be able to play games as good as when using AnyDesk)?

I am using RDP 10.0.17134 (RDP protocol 10.5) on my PC (with Windows 10). On the remote PC it is RDP 6.3.9.6 (RDP protocol 8.1). – Cristian M – 2018-09-06T13:44:24.213
