Topic

spice-client-msi packages are now available.

Description

The MinGW Windows virt-viewer console application implements, among other things, the client side of SPICE protocol. This package contains the remote-viewer executable, the next generation of spice-client.

Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager provides access to virtual machines using SPICE. These SPICE client packages provide the SPICE client for both Windows 32-bit operating systems and Windows 64-bit operating systems.

The UsbDk (USB Development Kit) is an open-source library for Windows meant to provide user-mode applications with direct and exclusive access to USB devices by detaching those from Windows PNP manager and device drivers and providing user mode with API for USB-specific operations on the device.

Changes to the mingw-virt-viewer component:

  • Previously, the guest details in the Help menu of the virt-viewer UI always appeared in English. In the current release, the guest details are translated into the system's language. (BZ#1292818)
  • Previously, if more than one device from the same vendor and with the same device ID was plugged in, the device change signal was ignored and only the first USB device that was plugged into the client was seen on the guest. The current release makes each USB device unique, so that multiple devices from the same vendor and with the same device ID can be redirected. (BZ#1425961)
  • undefined (BZ#1320991)
  • Previously, when multiple monitors were used in full screen mode, an application would lose the keyboard grab, so that keyboard input went to the client instead of the guest. The current release ensures that the keyboard grab/ungrab is triggered by the window's focus events, so that keyboard input goes to the guest. (BZ#1429611)
  • Previously, connecting to a guest with the remote-viewer option, '--spice-disable-usbredir', while 'enable-usb-autoshare' is set to '1' in the vv file, resulted in USB devices being hidden from the client and the guest. The current release checks whether usbredir is enabled before hiding USB devices from the client, and devices now appear in the client. (BZ#1431137)
  • Previously, if more than one device from the same vendor and with the same device ID was plugged in, the device change signal was ignored and the client became unresponsive when the redirected (first) USB device was removed. The current release ensures that each USB device is unique, so that multiple devices from the same vendor and with the same device ID are redirected and the client does not become unresponsive. (BZ#1475444)

Changes to the rhevm-spice-client component:

  • TBA (BZ#1490804)

Changes to the spice-usbdk-win component:

  • TBA (BZ#1434314)
  • Rebase package(s) to version: 1.0-19. This version provides full support for Windows 10 and several bug fixes. (BZ#1444605)
