Setting Description
Disable RTAV
When you enable this seing, the Real-Time Audio-Video feature is disabled.
When this seing is not congured or disabled, Real-Time Audio-Video is enabled.
This seing is in the VMware View Agent > View RTAV folder in the
Group Policy Management Editor.
Max frames per
second
Determines the maximum rate per second at which the webcam can capture frames. You can use this
seing to limit the webcam frame rate in low-bandwidth network environments.
The minimum value is one frame per second. The maximum value is 25 frames per second.
When this seing is not congured or disabled, no maximum frame rate is set. Real-Time Audio-
Video uses the frame rate that is selected for the webcam on the client system.
By default, client webcams have a frame rate of 15 frames per second. If no seing is congured on
the client system and the Max frames per second seing is not congured or disabled, the webcam
captures 15 frames per second.
This seing is located in the VMware View Agent > View RTAV >
View RTAV Webcam folder in the Group Policy Management Editor.
Resolution -
Max image
width in
pixels
Determines the maximum width, in pixels, of image frames that are captured by the webcam. By
seing a low maximum image width, you can lower the resolution of captured frames, which can
improve the imaging experience in low-bandwidth network environments.
When this seing is not congured or disabled, a maximum image width is not set. RTAV uses the
image width that is set on the client system. The default width of a webcam image on a client system
is 320 pixels.
The maximum limit for any webcam image is 1920x1080 pixels. If you congure this seing with a
value that is higher than 1920 pixels, the eective maximum image width is 1920 pixels.
This seing is located in the VMware View Agent > View RTAV >
View RTAV Webcam folder in the Group Policy Management Editor.
Resolution -
Max image
height in
pixels
Determines the maximum height, in pixels, of image frames that are captured by the webcam. By
seing a low maximum image height, you can lower the resolution of captured frames, which can
improve the imaging experience in low-bandwidth network environments.
When this seing is not congured or disabled, a maximum image height is not set. RTAV uses the
image height that is set on the client system. The default height of a webcam image on a client system
is 240 pixels.
The maximum limit for any webcam image is 1920x1080 pixels. If you congure this seing with a
value that is higher than 1080 pixels, the eective maximum image height is 1080 pixels.
This seing is located in the VMware View Agent > View RTAV >
View RTAV Webcam folder in the Group Policy Management Editor.
