3.6.2 bugfix and performance release

Posted by Armin Novak on July 04, 2024

FreeRDP 3.6.2 has just been released and uploaded to

https://pub.freerdp.com/releases/

Due to some bugs found during release tests 3.6.0 and 3.6.1 have not been released and only 3.6.2 should be uses.

What’s Changed

With this release we did improve decoder speed so you should notice a significant speed improvement with progressive and other gfx codecs. We’ve also eliminated a couple of issues along the way, so an update is highly recommended.

Noteworthy changes:

  • Fix xfreerdp and sdl-freerdp manpage names (accidentally changed name)
  • Fix crash of wfreerdp
  • Fix missing dependency for ci abi-checker
  • Fix build WITH_SSE2/WITH_NEON: only enable support if the compiler also defines symbols that suggest support.
