No.  The application still renders to the visual(s) on the senders system 
and SharedX takes care of translating the protocol to whatever visual is 
available on the receiver's system.  So if the application puts an image to a
4 bit pseudo-color device and that window is being shared to a 24 bit true
color device, SharedX will convert the image (including all the pixel values
in the image) to render properly on the destination server(s).

SharedX does not do a perfect job at sharing all applications.  This is 
just one example.  To does, however, do a very good job at sharing most
applications.
