Caps Lock and Kana state can go out-of-sync when a Japanese keyboard is used
When a Japanese keyboard is used on the client side in a PCoIP session, the Caps Lock state can be out-of-sync on the host side if the Caps Lock key is pressed outside of the PCoIP client window.
On the client machine, set the input language to non-Japanese when a Japanese keyboard is used.
Do not press the Caps Lock key outside of the PCoIP client window when a Japanese keyboard is used.
If the Caps Lock state is out-of-sync inside a PCoIP session, disconnect and reconnect to the host.
PCoIP Client quits unexpectedly when exiting full screen while audio source is running (MacBook Pro)
Exiting full screen mode while an audio source is running may cause the session to quit unexpectedly. This issue affects clients running on recent MacBook Pro hardware.
Stop audio sources, including video with audio, before leaving full-screen mode to avoid this issue.
If the session does disconnect, reconnecting will resume the session.
The name of network shown in Anyware Health Monitor does not change during a session
In Anyware Health Monitor, the name of network shown will not change during a session even if the actual network changes.
For example, if an ethernet cable is pulled out and the system switches to WiFi, the name of network will not change in the Anyware Health Monitor display until the session is disconnected and reconnected.
MacOS support bundler issues
Several issues have been identified with the support bundler for the macOS client.
macOS client only detects audio output device at session start
The macOS client will not detect a change in the audio output device while in session.
Disconnect and reconnect to the session when changing the audio output device.
macOS client may only minimize one display on OS X 10.11
If you launch the PCoIP Software Client in OS X 10.11 and you have not clicked anywhere within the display before using the minimize hot key (Ctrl+Alt+M), the display that has not been used will not be minimized. This does not occur in macOS 10.12 (Sierra) or 10.13 (High Sierra).
Click with the mouse on both displays of the client any time before pressing Ctrl+Alt+M, and both displays will be minimized.
Using an invalid or corrupt branding package crashes client
If the branding package does not match the hash value specified for the branding package, the session client will terminate.
Replace the corrupt branding file or use the correct hash value.
Datalogic barcode scanner cannot be redirected when bridged in macOS
The Datalogic Quickscan QS6500 barcode scanner does not work when the device is bridged.
Do not bridge the device. The device works as expected with the remote host when it is not bridged.
USB keyboards do not work in bridged mode
Keyboards do not work when bridged. This affects both Windows and macOS PCoIP Software Client.
Do not bridge the keyboard. Keyboards function correctly when locally terminated.
Audio input in PCoIP Software Client with PCoIP Remote Workstation Card does not work
When in session with a PCoIP Remote Workstation Card, PCoIP Software Client supports audio out from the host, but not audio into the host.
