The client SDK no longer requires all config setting to being registered
If an SDK developer does not register all configuration settings, the client SDK now uses the default value if a configuration setting has not been previously set.
Fixed issue where audio output fails when switching audio devices
Fixed an issue which sometimes caused the audio output to stop when switching audio devices. For example un-plugging and re-plugging headphones from a PC with no default speakers.
Audio and video will stay in sync even during silence in video playback
Video will be aligned to the expected audio timing even if there are quiet periods in the audio stream when PCoIP Ultra AV Lock is enabled.
Audio does not work when connected to a Remote Workstation Card
Audio in/out is not available when the host is a Remote Workstation Card
Use PCoIP Client version 21.07 if audio functionality is required with the Remote Workstation Card.
USB driver conflicts with NoMachine software
The USB driver installed with the PCoIP Software Client for Windows has a driver conflict with the USB driver used by the NoMachine remoting software.
Remove the NoMachine software before installing the PCoIP client.
Client Installation of USB components (USB hub filter driver) may fail
If the USB hub filter driver is in use when the PCoIP client is uninstalled, the subsequent install of the client will fail to install a new USB hub filter driver. The error message will state a different version of the driver is installed, however the driver is actually only partially uninstalled.
These manual steps can be used to completely remove the USB hub filter driver. # Uninstall PCoIP client # Reboot machine # Open registry key editor # Search for "fusbhub" under HKLM # Try to remove registry key containing "fusbhub". If the registry key cannot be removed, note down inf file name associated with the registry entry. The inf file name usually starts with oem, e.g. oem9.inf. Start commandline prompt, run "pnputil -f -d oem9.inf" # Keep repeating step 5 until "fusbhub" gets completely removed from registry key # Reboot machine # Install PCoIP client.
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.
Bridged USB devices disconnected when switching to Windowed Mode
When the client has more than one monitor, switching from Full-screen to Windowed mode will disconnect all bridged USB devices.
Cancelling large USB file transfer fails
Cancelling a large file from being copied to, or from, a USB flash drive while bridged in PCoIP Software Client fails to function. The file will continue to copy until finished.
Allow operations on USB devices to complete prior to disconnecting the session.
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.
