how to measure rdp session active time?

i've seen this :


does this mean that i was connected for 19 minutes, but "moved the mouse" for 17 minutes and 35 seconds?

thank you

Hello,
Here is how the Active Time is implemented in RDM. We have timer that ticks every second and verify which tab or window has the focus and if a session is associated, we increase the active time. So it's possible that you just left your computer open without any keyboard or mouse movement and get your active time increased.

Hello,
Unfortunately I have no way to detect what's going on inside a connection. This is the only workaround I've found.

The implementation of the timer was my workaround.
