primary sources date August 2011 In computing , the Enlightened Sound Daemon ESD or EsounD is the sound server for Enlightenment window manager Enlightenment and GNOME . ESD will mix together the simultaneous audio output of multiple running programs, and output the resulting stream to the sound card. ESD can also manage computer network network Location transparency transparent sound reproduction audio . As such, an application that supports ESD can output audio over the network, to any connected computer that is running an ESD server. ESD support must be specifically written and added into applications, as ESD does not emulate normal audio hardware API s. Since ESD has been around for over a decade, earlier than almost any other sound server, a very large number of Unix applications have support for ESD output built in, or available as add ons. ESD was maintained as part of the GNOME project, but as of April 2009, all ESD modules in GNOME have been ported to libcanberra for event sounds or GStreamer PulseAudio for everything else. ref cite web url http 0pointer.de blog projects esound free.html title Lennart s Blog aggregated on Planet Gnome accessdate 2009 04 05 ref PulseAudio 2.0 completely drops ESounD support.

High Performance Graphics Starting with version 3.0.0, JPEG compression and decompression has been accelerated using the SIMD extensions present in modern CPU s. Given a reasonable fast server, client, and network, it is possible to play back motion graphics in full screen mode. This can be done without any client side video decoder software or specialized handling of video. These performance enhancements also means that ThinLinc works very well in conjunction with the VirtualGL software, which provides hardware accelerated OpenGL on the server side.
