Enabling mute on some devices will prevent audio from arriving at the
receiver. The Realtek audio device used in the HP xw4300 is known to have
this issue. One possible solution when running the 32 bit version of Windows
XP is to disable the audio device prior to installing the sender. This will cause
the HP Remote Audio device driver to be installed. The real audio device and
the HP Remote Audio device should not be enabled at the same time. The
sender will connect to the first audio device it detects, which may not be the
device that is selected by the user.

RGS Receiver Audio Controls Are Disabled on a Receiver for Linux:

The audio controls will be disabled when the receiver cannot open or
communicate with the JACK audio server (jackd). The status can be
determined with the hprgsaudio script:

/opt/hpremote/rgreceiver/hprgsaudio status

This reports the existence of a user-owned jackd audio server.

/opt/hpremote/rgreceiver/hprgsaudio start

This will attempt to manually start of the jackd audio server if it is not
running.

/opt/hpremote/rgreceiver/hprgsaudio stop

This will attempt to manually stop the jackd audio server if unused by
rgreceiver

.

/opt/hpremote/rgreceiver/hprgsaudio restart

This will attempt to shutdown and restart jackd if possible.

The hprgsaudio script should always be the preferred method of managing
jackd

.

Note

: Audio is not supported on HP-UX.

section for information on selecting the mixer as the input line. Refer to the
Windows Sender Audio Calibration for information on how to ensure the
volume levels are not too low. Make sure the mute is not enabled on the
Wave line of the sender or receivers Volume Control.
