Hi Jason, This looks good, I have found the file and the setting "*audioInputMute: 1" However if I set this to 0, next time the Venue Client opens the RAT it is set make to 1.
Also interesting, if I open RAT with the command "rat xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/xxx" the mic setting is left unchanged (this is good), however if it is opened with the Venue Client then I still get the feedback. This is making me think the venue client is doing something I do not want it to do. Any more ideas?
