Thanks Marc-André, that looks much simpler than I thought it would, I don't 
anticipate any issues wrapping the base api into Qt classes.

However :) I only have a passing acquaintance dealing with video buffers and 
audio streams, so I will be drawing on the lists expertise when the time 
comes.

Quick question to display my ignorance. I presume the imgdata buffer provided 
in the "display-primary-create" signal is the raw image data, and it is up to 
the actual qt widget to display that data, interpreting the display format 
(SPICE_SURFACE_FMT_32_xRGB or SPICE_SURFACE_FMT_16_555).

Updates to the buffer are signaled via "display-invalidate".

Actual transfer of data from the vm guest to the spice buffer (imgdata) is 
handled by the library behind the scenes and I don't have to worry about that 
side of things?


thanks,
