Hi everyone! How can I use my laptop webcam in a remote session? At the moment the remote session uses the usb webcam of the client where I’ve been connected.

Hi Tom,
Well, on RDS, there isn’t so much you can optimize but using RemoteFX:

Have an eye on USB Redirection and be sure, that Audio devices aren’t get redirected through USB Redirection.

If that doesn’t work either, you could try to redirect the webcam via Native USB redirection instead:

Hi Sebastien,
I try your solutions but it doesn’t work. The webcam from the laptop will not be used as the RDS.
Everytime it looks on the remote system for a webcam.
Is there another solution?
On RDP, there is no much more to do. Maybe looking at Fabulatech?
