# Overview
-xrdp supports audio redirection using PulseAudio, which is a sound system for
-POSIX operating systems. Server to client redirection is compliant to Remote
-Desktop Procol standard [[MS-RDPEA]](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc240933.aspx)
-but client to server redirection implementation is proprietary. Accordingly,
-server to client redirection is available with many of RDP clients including
-Microsoft client but client to server redirection requires NeutrinoRDP client,
-not available with other clients.
+xrdp implements Audio Output redirection using PulseAudio, which is a sound
+system used on POSIX operating systems.
+
+The server to client audio redirection is implemented as per **Remote Desktop
+Protocol: Audio Output Virtual Channel Extension
+[[MS-RDPEA]](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc240933.aspx)** specs,
+which means it is interoperable with any RDP client which implements it
+(most of them including: MS RDP clients, FreeRDP).
+
+However, our Microphone redirection (client to server) implementation is
+proprietary and doesn't implement the
+[[MS-RDPEAI]](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd342521.aspx)
+specs. Its only supported by the following clients so far: NeutrinoRDP client
+and rdesktop.
Here is how to build pulseaudio modules for your distro, so you can have audio
support through xrdp.

-out your pulseaudio version executing the following command:

# Install
-Install process is not distro specific except for install destination. Install
-built two .so files into the pulseaudio modules directory. Typically,
-`/usr/lib/pulse-11.1/modules` for Debian, `/usr/lib64/pulse-10.0/modules` for
-CentOS 7. Other distro might have different path. Find out the right path and
-version that matches your distro/system.
-
-Look into the directory with `ls` command. You'll see lots of `module-*.so`
-files. There's the place! now `cd` to `pulseaudio-modules` directory and copy them.
-
- cd pulseaudio-modules
- for f in *.so; do install -s -m 644 $f /usr/lib/pulse-11.1/modules; done
-
-This command is equivalent to following:
+Just `make install` should install built modules to the correct directory.
- install -s -m 644 module-xrdp-sink.so /usr/lib/pulse-11.1/modules
- install -s -m 644 module-xrdp-source.so /usr/lib/pulse-11.1/modules
+You can confirm if the modules properly installed by following command:
+```
+ls $(pkg-config --variable=modlibexecdir libpulse)
+```
-Well done! Pulseaudio modules should be properly built and installed.
+If you can see lots of `module-*.so` and `module-xrdp-sink.so`,
+`module-xrdp-source.so`, PulseAudio modules should be properly built and
+installed.
+Enjoy!
