Webcam Support

The Trusted Zero Client supports USB webcams when connecting to an Anyware Agent for Windows. USB webcams can be used while in the remote desktop, including with applications such as Microsoft Teams or Zoom.

For detailed information about the models that have been tested and the performance metrics associated with these models see HP Anyware Webcam Support. This knowledge base article also deals steps on how to test and verify other webcam models.

This feature is enabled by default.

Requirements

Webcam support requires the following:

  • A Windows remote desktop, with an Anyware Standard Agent for Windows or an Anyware Graphics Agent for Windows, 23.06+

  • Omnissa Horizon Agent

  • A USB-attached webcam.

Notes and Limitations

If the browser on the remote desktop terminates when a webcam is connected, you must disable the webUSB setting in Chrome by running the following command in the search bar of the Chrome browser:

chrome://flags/#enable-webusb-device-detection

Open the Chrome menu and disable the webUSB flag.

This is applicable for both Anyware Agent and Omnissa (VMware) Horizon Agent.

Setup

On the Trusted Zero Client, connect the webcam as described in USB Bridging of Webcams.
