我可以通过Microsoft远程桌面授予本地网络摄像头访问Azure Win Server VM的权限吗？

Question

I'm developing a website in VS on a Windows Server Azure VM, and remoting in to do my work through Microsoft Remote Desktop for Mac. The website needs to access a webcam, but I don't have any webcam on the remote windows server!

Is there any way to allow the remote windows server where I'm developing to see my local webcam through Microsoft Remote Desktop, as my local machine is a Macbook Air?

Maybe there's another remote tool for Mac that will allow this? One I have to pay for?

Looking at the settings for Microsoft remote destop for Mac version 10.2.4 how can I set the local resources for USB connections? I don't even see a option for Usb device, just printers, clipboard and Smart cards.

All I see is this below with no options for USB connections

Answer 1

as of Dec 2018:

no, it is simply not possible with the latest Mac beta RDP Client and a still open demand from user voice

The feature of USB redirection is part of so called RemoteFX and a feature of RDS. From server side it is possible since Windows Server 2012, newer Versions improved it. Windows Client (mstsc.exe or remote desktop client) support the USB and Video mapping for since ages, but of course negotiating with the server which features are possible and allowed.

this link gives a nice overview mosty without covering non-Windows: https://workspot.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/214248563-Configuring-USB-Redirection-with-RemoteFX-in-Workspot

to be afraid, the MS Mac client only supports the usual redirections like audio, printer, clipboard and drive mappings.

there are obviously other RDP clients out there, with experimental USB and webcam redirecting:

at least there is freeRDP which may also run on a Mac
