USB Webcam over Remote Desktop Connection

I've recently purchased a Logitech C920 webcam. For work, I RDP from my personal machine to the work laptop (located on the same LAN - It's just easier for multi-monitor setup, etc, without KVMs). Both devices are running Windows 10.

When I take part in a call (via Google Hangouts) on my work pc, I am already able to pass the audio and mic back and forth. However, I can't seem to get the webcam to pass through.

The current setup looks like this:

(Headphones + Webcam) --> Personal PC --> RDP --> Work Laptop

I've already enabled the webcam (and PnP devices) on the RDP settings:

However the camera does not appear in the remote session.

Am I missing a step here? It seems like it should be working.

Solution 1:

I found this solution from another website and it worked for me (same camera too).

On the PC you're connecting to, change the following in Edit Group Policy:

Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Remote Desktop Services > Remote Desktop Session Host > Device and Resource Redirection

Do not allow supported Plug and Play device redirection: Disabled

Finally, reboot the remote computer. This is all I had to do.

The post also mentioned this setting as well, but I didn't find it necessary when going to a non-virtual machine:

Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Remote Desktop Services > Remote Desktop Session Host > Remote Session Environment > RemoteFX for Windows Server 2008 R2

Configure RemoteFX: Enabled
