Remote session clipboard content types #31

Open toml-unitednet opened 1 year ago

toml-unitednet commented 1 year ago

When connected to a remote device via RDP or teamviewer and I copy files, images, etc they all get detected with a content type of other. Copying text correctly gets detected as text though

When copying files and images on my local pc the content type is correctly detected i.e. files, image, etc

Is this a known issue/limitation? Is there another way I can get this detecting the correct content type on remote sessions?

Thanks Tom

It appears copying files/images over RDP are stored as clipboard objects in memory when copied across various devices and therefore classified as of type Other. You can probably extend the testing to other RDP software such as TeamViewer and AnyDesk to confirm if the behavior is consistent across.
