[Spice-devel] intel vgpu framebuffer encoding & spice

[Zhang, Tina]

Hi,

We'd like to know if there is a plan or any progress on proper remote display by encoding vgpu's framebuffers as video directly through dma-buf file descriptors.

The current remote display solution is using texture readback, which has performance loss.

As SPICE can use GStreamer to encode and GStreamer has APIs like "gst_dmabuf_*" which can be used to encode through dma-buf file descriptors, can SPICE support APIs to
encode vgpu's framebuffer directly through dma-buf file descriptors, without any copy?

Thanks.

BR,
Tina
