To use the HTML5 Multimedia Redirection feature with the Chrome browser, you must force install the VMware Horizon HTML5 Redirection extension on the remote desktop. You force install the extension by configuring a Google Chrome group policy setting on your Active Directory server.
To apply the Chrome group policy setting to the remote desktop, you must add the ADMX template file to a GPO on your Active Directory server. For a virtual desktop, the GPO must be linked to the OU that contains the virtual desktop. For a published desktop, the GPO must be linked to the OU that contains the RDS host.
Prerequisites
- Configure the HTML5 Multimedia Redirection feature. See Install and Configure HTML5 Multimedia Redirection.
- Verify that you can log in as an Administrator domain user on the machine that hosts your Active Directory server.
- Verify that the MMC and the Group Policy Object Editor snap-in are available on your Active Directory server.
