At this momenent I work for a customer for a VMware View project.
The environment consist of the following products:
vSphere 5.1, View 5.1, vCenter with vComposer.
Desktop pool are designed for a floating pool with PCoIP as primary protocol.
The virtual desktops running fine with video (screens) of different video vendors.
There is some problems with the Samsung recorder. They give a black screen.
There a two types of Samsung recorders:
SRD-165x and SRD167x
The latest codecs are installed in the base image, the following errors occurs:
[XMedia3] ShowLastVideo - DrawOffscreenImage Error 8203
and
[XMedia3] Create Front Surface Failed - hr: 0x88760233
Loaded "MMDEVAPI.DLL" at address 0x743D0000.
Loaded "PROPSYS.DLL" at address 0x742D0000.
Loaded "AUDIOSES.DLL" at address 0x73A00000.
CD2DVideoRenderer::CreateOffscreenSurface_VideoMemory() (hr:0x88760233)
Policies are set to the VDI OU:
Turn off Build-to-lossless feature | Enabled | 250MB |
Configure PCoIP client image cache size policy | Enabled | 250MB |
| PCOiP | ||
| Video RAM | 64MB | 128MB |
| 3D rendering | on | on |
| Video Card | ||
| SVGA | RDP | X |
| SVGA | PCoIP | X |
| VMware SVGA3D (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM) | PCoIP | X |
How are these connected?

The Samsung CCTV (recorders) devices are connected via ethernet.
So I am still not sure how this is used with View, could you give some more details on how you are using these recorders?
Could you maybe post some screenshots also?

That does not really help me here.
Does it work if you use RDP or directly from the vSphere console?
Does it work if you are using a VM in VMware Workstation?

Hi Joel,
I have tested the following scenario's with a virtual desktop.
Default the Virtual Desktop (VD) has 35MB of video ram
I have changed the settings of the Desktop pool.
Windows 7 3D rendering enabled and changed the video ram.
Testing with PCoIP - No joy.
| Video RAM | 64MB | 128MB |
| 3D rendering | on | on |
After this test I have changed the standard video driver VMware SVGA3D (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM) into SVGA and testing via RDP.
| Video Card | ||
| SVGA | RDP | via View Client and directly |
| VMware SVGA3D (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM) | RDP | via View Client and directly |
| VMware SVGA3D (Microsoft Corporation - WDDM) | PCoIP | No Joy |
When I run the application in each test, a black screen of the samsung devices appears.
Any suggestion?
Kind Regards,
Daniel
Does it work if you try directly from the vSphere console?
Does it work if you are using a VM in VMware Workstation?
How does the application work? Does it use some kind of video overlay or DXVA?
Any screenshot?

Hi Joel,
The problem has been solved with the Samsung recorders.
Today I have tested with the 3D enabled on the video card of the base image.
On the desktop pool, I have Windows 7 3D renderings enabled and configured to 64MB.
This works fine.
The first test I was forgot the 3D enabling on the video card of the base image.
Joel, I will thank you for support.
Best regards,
Daniel
