Pack 2 or higher. If you need audio-recording support and are using a different configuration, use one of the following methods: ● If your system uses VMware Horizon View Client 1.7 or higher, use the RDP protocol to allow for high-level audio redirection through either the 3.5 mm jack or a USB headset. NOTE: To use high-level audio-record redirection through the RDP protocol, the server must support it and be configured to allow audio recording over a remote session. The server must be running Windows 7 or greater. You also must make sure the HKLM\SYSTEM \CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\RDP-Tcp \fDisableAudioCapture registry key is set to 0. ● If you have a USB headset with a microphone, you can use USBR. Set the USB headset to be redirected into the session. The headset will show up as an audio device. By default, USB audio devices are not redirected and the view client uses high-level audio redirection. To redirect the USB headset, use the client's USB Manager and select the USB headset to be redirected. Make sure that VMware Horizon View is selected as the USBR protocol and make sure that the headset is checked under the Devices to be redirected. NOTE: VMware and HP do not recommend using USBR for headsets. A large amount network bandwidth is required to stream audio data over the USBR protocol. Also, you might experience poor audio quality with this method. Using smart card redirection with VMware Horizon View To use a smart card to log in to the VMware Horizon View server: 1. Be sure smart card login is enabled in the VMware Horizon View Connection Manager. After starting the connection, the VMware Horizon View client will display a list of server credentials. 2. To unlock the credentials and access the VMware Horizon View Manager server, type the appropriate PIN for the server. NOTE: After you supply the correct PIN, the user's credentials will be used to log in to the VMware Horizon View Manager server. Please see the VMware Horizon View documentation for details on configuring the server to support smart card login. As long as the server is configured to allow smart card login, the user's credentials will pass through and they will be logged in to the desktop without having to enter their PIN again. NOTE: To log in to the VMware Horizon View Manager administrator server with a smart card, the local smart card driver must be installed on the client. See Using smart card redirection with RDP on page 38 for more information on smart card driver installation. Once logged in to the remote host, the smart card will be passed to the remote host using a virtual channel, not USBR This virtual channel redirection makes sure that the smart card can be used for tasks such as email signing, screen locking, and so on, but might cause the smart card to not show as a smart card device in the Windows Device Manager. NOTE: The remote host must have the proper smart card drivers installed. Using webcam redirection with VMware Horizon View The VMware Horizon View client supports high-level webcam redirection only through RTAV using x86 units connected to a back-end server running VMware Horizon View 5.2 Feature Pack 2 or higher. Other connection methods do not support high-level webcam redirection and can redirect webcams only using USBR. Based on internal testing and validation, HP has found that the performance of a webcam connected through basic USBR performs poorly.
