Good morning.

I have a problem with my home setup. I have windows 2003 Server runing with Osprey 450e capture card. I'm using Windows Media encoder 9 right now. I'm not ready for expression encoder yet.

If I use the server directly I can see the 4 channels that I'm encoding and the audio is fine. If I connect via web browser everything works fine.
The problem is if I use RDP from a remote location in the house to tweak or change anything on one of my channels I can't see the audio ports. I see all 4 video ports just fine.

I have seen the same thing on another system in the past but I dont know what the fix was.

This is only when I use RDP to make a change on the system.

Any thoughts ?

have you checked in your rdp session settings? when you open RDP click on the options, then go to local resources. There you will find a remote audio feature that you might need to adjust in order to get the correct results from your rdp session.

Just a thought...

If that doesnt work, you could always try dameware. Its another remote control application, but it doesnt create a new session, it piggybacks off the current login so you can see the screen and control the keyboard and mouse on the remote computer.
