Hi Norbert, As you've probably noticed by now, the Windows port is in a very rough state. Here's what I can tell you:
multimedia redirection has not been implemented. On Linux, it's been made modular such that it can be built with either ffmpeg or gstreamer support. To port it to Windows, you'll need to validate or port, in order: The static virtual channel plugin system The dynamic virtual channel plugin (dyndvc) The base tsmf (multimedia redirection) plugin And then write the platform-specific code for the tsmf plugin to use the native Windows API Multimedia Redirection is defined as a dynamic virtual channel. Support for dynamic virtual channel is added with a static virtual channel called dyndvc. This is why you need to validate or port those two, in order. As for disk redirection, it's a sub-plugin of device redirection. You need to first make sure the rdpdr plugin compiles and works, and then port the sub-plugin system for device redirection. Sub-plugin include disk, smartcard, printer, parallel and serial port redirection. One difficulty will be to have the plugin system find the path to the plugins and load them properly. I'm not sure what a proper plugin install path should be on Windows. Also, please note that the Windows port has support for using the native SSPI modules instead of the ones from WinPR, something which you can enable in cmake with -DWITH_NATIVE_SSPI=on. Support for basic configuration through the registry has been added in WinPR, so feel free to include <winpr/registry.h> and use the subset of the Windows registry API that has been implemented. I've been defining .reg files on Linux successfully, and there's enough of the API implemented to make it useful on all platforms.
