    Sounds not being transmitted from laptop that is controlling the host. I can hear what’s sound is coming from host but I want my laptop controlling the host to transmit sound in host.

      Hi @Sam001, thanks for your question!

      TinyPilot's audio streaming is currently only unidirectional. i.e., TinyPilot can transmit audio from your target machine to your web browser. Transmitting audio from your host machine to your target machine isn't currently possible with TinyPilot.

      A few other users have expressed interest in using TinyPilot as an audio input to their target machine. We have internal tickets open to look into how feasible it would be to forward audio to a TinyPilot device and output it to the connected computer. We don’t have a timeline yet, but we prioritize features based on user demand, so we’ll definitely consider your feedback in our planning.

      Other users are experimenting with JackTrip to hack together this functionality themselves. So this might be something you're interested in researching further.

      I hope that helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions.

            Hi @NanNinja, thanks for your interest in bidirectional audio!

            We normally take feature requests on our GitHub page. However, because this is something we're exploring internally, there isn't a public ticket for it.

            I've added a note to our internal ticket to track your interest. We don’t have a timeline yet, but we prioritize features based on user demand, so we’ll definitely consider your feedback in our planning.

            Please let me know if you have any questions.
