- For Microsoft Teams (audio/video) optimization in AVD, Windows 365, and RDP sessions, Remote Desktop WebRTC Redirector version 1.50 or higher must be used. The latest version can be found on the Microsoft website here. The WebRTC Redirector Service is a component that helps optimize the Microsoft Teams experience on Windows AVD and Windows 365.
Important notes:
- If you plan to use the RX540 or RX580 thin client to connect to vSpace Pro Enterprise sessions (separate vSpace connection license required), ensure that the vSpace Pro Enterprise software is upgraded to version 12.9.2 or higher. Versions prior to 12.9.2 will not recognize the new RX540 and RX580 client IDs, potentially leading to unexpected vSpace disconnections.
