Sound issue with Android client ?

Hi All..

Been testing the new vWorkspace Android client on a Acer a500 tablet ...seem to work very well

however...

im finding the VDI session Sound keeps breaking up ( XP or Win7 VDI ) - anyone else seeing this ?

also im finding the Drop down menu to select multiple/switch between different VDI session a bit "hit and miss"

( no -  ive not got fat fingers :-)

    Yep, were working hard on lots of new exciting Connector releases for Linux, Mac and iPad.

    We only launched Android last week - you want a new one already

    Thanks Prit.

    Ah, your refering to the desktop toolbar. Can you explain what you mean by hit and miss? It doesnt pop up and down all the time? or the actual buttons from the menu dont work?

    Its fiddly on smaller devices due to the touch hot spot being smaller, but it seems usable on tablets. Maybe we need to increase the hotspot size. Let me know the answers to the above and I'll look into it.

    Thanks

    Hi Prit,

    I've seen this under low bandwidth/when connected via 3G but the issue does go away when im connected on wi-fi. If you need assistance I'd recommend raising a support case.

    Which drop down menu are you refering too? We dont have a drop down menu to select between different sessions, do you mean the menu to select which farm/location to connect using?

    Thanks

    Mmm...im connected via wi-fi , or will do ( i'll also check with different device too )

    The drop down menu you get when your VDI session is running ( top of the screen - with the little arrow )

    regards

    We may be adding some functionality to the mouse in the future, but I cant comment on when that is or what it will look like just yet.

    Please raise a support case if you continue to encounter the audio issues you mentioned - its important that we try to localize the issue and if its a problem, get it logged so that we can fix it in a future release.

    Thanks

    Yep ..that it - desktop toolbar ( icon of the sqare boxes )

    as you say it a bit "fiddly" when you want to switch back to the menu to select another VDI session

    rest of the items responsed fine on the 10" device

    Yes if you can increase the "hotspot size" ...would be great

    ps..any news on new mouse ;-)

    cheers

    Hi Prit,

    Just out of interest, what audio are you playing here? Are we talking about simple windows sounds or something longer?

    Thanks

    No -  not simple WIndows Sounds ( ie Login / logout etc )

    but audio from default MS Media Player and from WebPages too..

    it works - but the audio keeps skipping / goes out of sync effect

    hope this help

    Thanks Prit, that helps alot.

    The problem you are getting is because you are using Media Player and we dont support Media Player redirection today on Android (like we do in Windows and Linux Connectors).  In other words, we would need specific Media Player redirection for this to work smoothly.

    Its something we will look to include in a future release, I just cant say when right now.


    Hope this helps.

    Thanks
