Unity Touch
With Unity Touch, tablet and smart phone users can easily browse, search,
and open Windows applications and files, choose favorite applications and
files, and switch between running applications, all without using the Start
menu or Taskbar. The VMware Horizon View Client documents for iOS and
Android devices provide more information about end user features provided
by Unity Touch.
Windows 7 Multimedia
Redirection (MMR)
This feature extends MMR to Windows 7 desktops and clients.
MMR delivers the multimedia stream directly to client computers. With
MMR, the multimedia stream is processed, that is, decoded, on the client
system. The client system plays the media content, thereby offloading the
demand on the ESXi host.
HTML Access installer
This installer configures View Connection Server instances to allow users to select HTML Access to connect
to desktops. After you run the HTML Access installer, the View Portal displays an HTML Access icon in
addition to the View Client icon.
You must run this installer if you want to use HTML Access to connect to desktops in a Horizon View
deployment. Running this installer is also required if your users go through Horizon Workspace and select
HTML Access to connect to desktops.
Setup and Installation
To set up the Horizon View Feature Pack, you install the Remote Experience Agent on Horizon View
desktops and the HTML Access installer on View Connection Server instances.
