I gather that Windows 2008 Terminal Services has improved support for
usb devices. But it's hard to discover specifically how far that support
goes. How do I determine if usb footpedals are going to work?
Transcriptionists use usb footpedals to control the playback of
dictations.
 
Re: How well does Windows 2008 Terminal Services handle usb devices

If I understand your question correctly, you want to know if usb footpedals
will work inside TS session in Windows 2008. I guess you will have to try it
out on a Windows 2008 machine. We have tested various USB devices with TS in
Windows 2008, but I do not know if we have tested this particular device.

How about a Philips Speech Mike Pro Plus LFH5276? What to pass both key press
and audio.

How about the Philips SpeechMike Pro Plus LFH5276? Want to pass the key press
and audio from client to app residing on TS server.

Thanks!

Re: How well does Windows 2008 Terminal Services handle usb device

You really have to test it in a test environment.
A known problem is a time delay when pressing the footpedal, which
causes the loss of the first couple of words each time the
dictation is started again after pausing it.
