Audio settings
Default system deployment disables audio for WEB RDP Sessions unless enabled globally using system parameter xtam.session.web.audio=true.
Record level parameter Audio allows record owners to enable or to disable audio in WEB RDP Sessions for individual records or all records in the record type.
To control audio settings on a record level, add Choice field GlyphCaching (Display name Glyph Caching) to the Record Type with the values Enabled, Disabled. Select the appropriate value on the record editing screen.
In addition to screen regions, RDP maintains caches of frequently used symbols or fonts, collectively known as “glyphs.”
Certain known bugs in RDP implementations can cause performance issues with this enabled (old versions such as Windows Server 2008 is a usual example).
Setting this parameter to Disabled will disable that glyph caching in the WEB RDP session for this record.
To control audio settings on a record level, add Choice field Audio to the Record Type with the values Enabled, Disabled.
Select the appropriate value on the record editing screen.
