Guest Adrian Schmitt Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 Hi, how can I disable the "sound redirector" addin on a remote desktop server machine? I need this as a workaround, as I am connecting from a client (rdesktop on linux) that accidently always switches sound redirection on. But I need the sound to stay on the remote machine. I can see some registry path here, I thought sound redirection could somehow be switched off? [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server \AddIns\Sound Redirector] I would just like the sound to stay on the server, so that the remote sound devices of the server machine are connected the same as they are when somoeone logs in there on a "real" terminal. Thank you for any advice Adrian

Guest George Valkov Posted July 8, 2007 Posted July 8, 2007 Re: How to disable Remote Desktop's SoundRedirector? Put it simple: 1. Do you want re disable the sound completely (to reduce network bandwidth)? ( [Administrative tools --> Terminal services configuration --> Connections --> RDP-Tcp --> Client Settings] Disable the following: [x] Audio mapping ) 2. Or do you want the sound to always play on the server as if you were sitting on the console? ( there are two ways... Tell me if you need help with this one ) "Adrian Schmitt" wrote: | Hi, | | how can I disable the "sound redirector" addin on a remote desktop | server machine? | | I need this as a workaround, as I am connecting from a client | (rdesktop on linux) that accidently always switches sound redirection | on.
