Configuration Choices for Real-Time Audio-VideoĪfter you install Horizon Agent with Real-Time Audio-Video, the feature works on your remote sessions without any further configuration.The drivers for the audio and webcam devices must be installed on the Horizon Client systems to enable the redirection. When a conferencing or video application is launched, it displays and uses these VMware virtual devices, which handle the audio-video redirection from the locally-connected devices on the client. The VMware Virtual Webcam uses a kernel-mode webcam driver that provides enhanced compatibility with browser-based video applications and other third-party conferencing software. The device names are Remote Audio Device and VMware Virtual Webcam in remote sessions. For published desktops and published applications, Real-Time Audio-Video can redirect only one audio device and only one video device.
