I'm proud to release the first version of NVDA Remote Desktop (abbreviated nvdaRd).
This add-on adds support to access remote desktop sessions to NVDA.
When installed in NVDA on both the client and the server, speech and braille generated on the server will be spoken and brailled by the client machine. The add-on requires NVDA 2023.1RC1 or newer.

The add-on relies on RD Pipe, a library I wrote in Rust backing the remote desktop client support.
RD Pipe is redistributed as part of this add-on under the terms of version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License.

Features

• Support for Microsoft Remote Desktop and Citrix XenApp
• Speech and braille output
• Automatic detection of remote braille using NVDA's automatic braille display detection
• Automatic detection of remote speech using a dedicated detection process that can be disabled in NVDA's settings dialog
• Partial support for portable copies of NVDA running on a server (no additional administrative privileges required for Microsoft Remote Desktop)
• Full support for portable copies of NVDA running on a client (no additional administrative privileges required to install the add-on)
• Multiple active client sessions at the same time
• Remote desktop instantly available after NVDA start
• Ability to control specific synthesizer and braille display settings without leaving the remote session
