A super convenient solution for redirecting local webcams to remote desktop sessions.

summary

Remote desktop webcam is a high-performance software used to redirect locally inserted webcams to remote desktop sessions.

Therefore, any video conferencing or other software, the expected video stream will work.

working principle

The software consists of two parts. The workstation section will be installed on the local computer where the webcam actually exists. The server components are transferred to the remote end.

Remote desktop webcam creates a virtual camera in a remote desktop session, allowing you to receive video streams directly from the local hardware webcam. It provides you with high-quality and low latency video streams, allowing clear and stable video transmission to remote sessions without the need for any other configuration.

Fully direct display compatibility

Remote desktop webcam is fully compatible with DirectX. Therefore, it supports a wide range of software and hardware. Not only can you use a webcam as an image source, but you can also use any DirectShow compatible hardware, including video capture cards and ID scanners.

Suitable for any instant messaging and other video applications

All video conferencing software uses a webcam for remote desktop redirection, with perfect results. The supported software list includes popular applications such as Skype, Lync, Google Chat, GoToMeeting, Webex, Adobe Connect, and more. The remote desktop webcam also supports video chats for social networking services such as Facebook and Myspace.

Secure and independent access

The remote desktop webcam is responsible for processing your confidential information. In a multi user environment (Windows Server 2008, 2012, 2016), if multiple users log in to the remote end, each webcam will be isolated in a separate user session. Therefore, you don't have to worry that your personal video stream will be seen by others, even if it is mistakenly. No one except you can see your camera in the system.

Customize resolution, compression, and frame rate

Due to real-time compression, remote desktop webcams can reduce the size of video streams, thereby improving data transmission speed. This program supports different custom video resolutions and frame rates. The program can always be configured to meet network bandwidth and avoid frame dropping.

No driver video redirection

The remote end does not require a local webcam driver. Every time a new webcam is inserted, there is no need to install any drivers on the remote end (new driver installation requires administrative privileges and may cause headaches for system administrators).

Remote Desktop Protocol in Different Environments

Remote desktop webcams support different remote desktop protocols, including Microsoft RDP, Teradici PCoIP, and Citrix ICA. It doesn't matter what environment to use (Microsoft Azure, Microsoft Terminal Services, Citrix XenApp, Citrix XenDesktop, VMware View, Amazon workspace, etc.). Any compatible client software can be used to access the remote end. And there is no need to change firewall settings.

What about other operating systems?

If you are looking for a solution for Linux or macOS, you have already found it. Remote desktop webcams work perfectly in macOS and most Linux operating system distributions. It includes plugins for FreeRDP (MacfreeRDP in the case of macOS), Citrix workspace applications, Teradici PCoIP, VMware Horizon clients, and Amazon workspace clients.

Seamless mode support

The remote desktop webcam works perfectly in seamless mode. This is a simple and convenient feature that allows you to connect your local webcam to any remotely running video application in seamless mode.

OEM License Benefits

The remote desktop feature of the webcam can be easily integrated into the application. Therefore, you can allow terminal server users to access local video devices in remote Windows sessions. Read more
