Abstract: A remote desktop session is established between a remote desktop host device and a remote desktop client device to permit remote usage of the remote desktop host device at the remote desktop client device. The remote desktop host device detects access of multimedia content at the remote desktop host device by the remote desktop client device within the remote desktop session. The remote desktop host device, in response to detecting access of the multimedia content within the remote desktop session, provides instructions to the remote desktop client device to directly access the multimedia content outside of the remote desktop session.
