Installing RTME package on ThinOS
You are required to install the RTME.i386 package for the RTME feature to work on ThinOS.
To install the RTME.i386 package:
1. Upload the RTME.i386.pkg to directory \wnos\pkg\.
2. You must ensure that the INI autoload is not set to value 0.
3. Restart the thin client and wait till the auto-installation of packages is complete.
The installed RTME package is displayed in the Packages window in System Tools.
Setting up the RealTime Multimedia Engine connector
This section describes how to install and use Lync or Skype for Business (SFB) on a Citrix desktop.
1. Install Citrix HDX RealTime Connector on Citrix desktop VDA/Server. HDX RealTime Multimedia Engine (RTME) is the
package installed on ThinOS. It is HDX RealTime Connector that needs to be installed or upgraded on the remote server and
VDA.
NOTE:
The following are applicable to RTME 1.8 only:
● You can upgrade from RTME version 1.7 to 1.8. For more information, see the Citrix documentation at
docs.citrix.com.
● The Firewall configuration is required on remote server and VDA. For more information, see the Citrix documentation
at docs.citrix.com.
● The RTME 1.8 feature on ThinOS supports only HDX RealTime Connector 1.8 due to Citrix limitation.
2. Update the ThinOS firmware, and install the RTME.i386.pkg on the ThinOS client.
NOTE:
Since ThinOS 8.3.1 HF release, the RTME 1.8 and 2.1 co-exist in the release package, supporting both versions
of RTME connectors. In every ThinOS release, the RTME version may be updated to newer version and the latest RTME
version co-exists with RTME 1.8 version in the corresponding release packages.
