Automation fails when i run from Remote Login App or On VM terminal

I have several script written to capture Objects ( graphs , tables ) etc diplay on AUT and comparing against Stored Copy (Regions) .Auomation runs fine when i  run from my physical machine but when i am working from home and Remotely Login to my machine and run it , It fails. 

 

What would be possible solution to this ? I would guess it would be something to do with Resolution 

 

Similar Issue i run into when i run Scipt on VM Instance. 

 

 

Thank You

    Yes I expect it is resolution - I find using VNC enables me to most easiliy control the resolution my tests run at - rather than RDP.  I use tightvnc.

    You can not work properly with graphical objects on remote machine using RDP protocol, because it significantly compresses the traffic.
    To work with regions you need to use VNC protocol. But it works rather slowly.
