With the Real-Time Audio-Video feature, you can use the local client system's webcam or microphone in a remote desktop or published application. Real-Time Audio-Video is compatible with standard conferencing applications and browser-based video applications. It supports standard webcams, audio USB devices, and analog audio input.
For information about setting up the Real-Time Audio-Video feature on the agent machine, including configuring the frame rate and image resolution, see the Horizon Remote Desktop Features and GPOs document.
Note: This feature is available only with the version of
Horizon Client for Linux provided by third-party vendors or with the
Horizon Client software available from the VMware Product Downloads website.
To use hardware accelerate for Linux, open the
/etc/vmware/config file and set the parameter values as follows:
- rtav.forceNV="true" to enable NVIDIA hardware acceleration
- rtav.forceQSV="true" to enable Intel Quick Sync Video hardware acceleration
Real-Time Audio-Video hardware acceleration works on your client only if the Graphics processing unit is supported on your computer and is compatible with FFmpeg.
