Title: No Remote Audio
Post by: binary_digit on July 10, 2013, 06:21:54 AM
Hi, I can't get remote audio to work. I'm on a Windows 7 PC and connecting to an XP PC. When I selected computer sounds, I got a message saying the partner does not support remote audio.

I have just upgraded to the latest version (8.0.19617) and now the 'Computer Sounds' option is grey out. Both PC's have remote audio enabled in the options.

does the remote system have the latest version as well?

It is XP Pro on the host end.

I also have the same issue connecting to a host that is on Mac OSX Lion where the computer sound selection on the remote PC (Windows 7) is greyed out, so it may be a problem at the remote end.

it may be in fact the XP pro causing the issue.
i recall something about using a different driver in XP Pro that ...look around at RDP audio driver.

Send a support ticket describing the issue including the information for both remote systems.
