GoToMyPC now supports one-way sound from your host PC to your client computer. The sound settings can be optimized for system sounds or music depending on your sound card, personal preferences and the speed of your network connection. Temporary adjustments to your in-session sound settings can be made directly from the Viewer window. Adjustments to your sound settings can be made at any time in the Preferences window or directly from the Sound button in the upper right-hand corner of the Viewer window.
To
modify your sound preferences
Click the Sound button in the upper right-hand corner of the Viewer window.
Select Sound Settings from the menu.
From the Sound tab modify your sound settings and click OK.
Sound Features
When my session starts: Select your preferred sound settings on startup. Select the Turn off Sound option for optimal system performance. If you intend to listen to music, select Use High Quality Sound.
Sound options: Select your preferred audio source or let GoToMyPC detect the source automatically. If desired, GoToMyPC can automatically disable the Sound feature if a slow network connection is detected. For in-session privacy, leave the "Mute speakers on the host PC while in session" option selected.
The Manual option on the Sound Options drop-down list is not recommended for typical use. When selected, GoToMyPC records sound from the Windows default recording device without changing the active input or volume level. If these inputs are not configured correctly the sound may not work or have poor quality.
Please see the Troubleshooting Sound Issues section for more information on the Remote Sound feature.
Note: If you are listening to music from your host PC, be sure to stop the music before disconnecting your session. If you do not stop the music on the host PC before disconnection, the music will no longer be muted and could be heard by anyone close to your host PC.
Note: For optimal music quality, install the latest approved Windows Media Player on both the host PC and client PC.
Note: The High Quality Sound option is currently not available on Microsoft Vista. Sound is not available with the Universal Viewer or PocketView.
