Manage USB isochronous transfers for audio and video streams

Isochronous USB device transfer is used to transfer audio and video streams. Generally, Isoch devices are cameras, microphones, speakers, and other data-streaming devices. A High performance Isochronous feature is available with AnywhereUSB.

The High performance Isochronous USB feature is enabled in the AnywhereUSB Manager by default, and should remain enabled unless your Isochronous USB device does not function correctly with it enabled. You can disable this feature to attempt to allow older Isochronous USB data-streaming devices to operate when connected to a Hub over a network.

Note If you change any options in the Performance tab, you must restart the AnywhereUSB Manager to apply the change.

  1. Open AnywhereUSB Manager.

  2. Choose File > Preferences. The Preferences dialog appears.

  3. Click the Performance tab.

  4. De-select the High performance Isoch option.

  5. Click Save.

  6. To apply the change, you must restart the AnywhereUSB Manager. The process depends on the mode.
