Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • I am having trouble with video performance using the Spice protocol to connect to a Redhat or Windows VM from an IGEL thin client.
  • The video will hitch every 2 seconds, and delay for 3 or 4 seconds before playing again.

  • The IGEL Thin Client being used is a VIA Nano CPU running a single display at 1920x1200.
