"fDisableAudioCapture"=dword:00
Hi,
Could you explain your purpose clearly in order to help you quickly?
The registry subkey you mentioned can disable the Audio Recording Redirection feature:
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\RDP-Tcp
fDisableAudioCapture REG_DWORD 0 | 1
If either the policy or registry subkey on the Windows 7 Remote desktop computer are set to Disabled, Audio Recording Redirection is not available.
Hi,
The audio that emanates from the remote computer should continue to be sent out the audio ports of the remote computer despite the fact of the connection that mstsc establishes.
Audio from the remote computer is unwanted at the client computer (the computer that launches mstsc and which connects to the remote/server computer).
From your description above, it seems that you want disable the audio playing in the local computer. If so, you just configure the remote desktop connection as below:
click "Local Resources" tab, under "Remote audio" section, click Settings..., select "Play on remote computer" entry.
"fDisableAudioCapture" feature allows you to use voice recognition, voice chat, and other software that requires a microphone. And audio capture must be enabled in the Remote Desktop Session Host Configuration on the server before it can be used. However, this is new feature starting with Windows 7 and it's not available on Windows XP.
Hi,
Not default setting, you just configure it by yourself. It would save your changes for next connections.
Remote audio recording is allows you to use voice recognition, voice chat, and other software that requires a microphone like I said in previous.

Another alternative is to disable Allow audio recording redirection and Allow audio and video playback redirection via Group Policy. See Device and Resource Redirection on the TechNet Library
