At the urging of Sandro Bonazzola, I'm bringing up something that was being discussed on Twitter earlier today: supporting RDP with KVM directly.
As it turns out, about four years ago, Datto developed support for QEMU to display to RDP in a similar fashion to what was done for SPICE years ago. The way this was done was by patching QEMU[1] to send buffers to a service called RDPMux[2], which would provide RDP connections. Additionally, libvirt was adjusted to support this[3].
Hi Neil, what would be the advantage over VNC? Recently I played with virtual desktops from US to Italy and VNC was completely useless while SPICE worked great. So I'm not sure why QEMU needs to support RDP unless it can provide the same level of usability as SPICE (which however can only achieve it through the paravirtualized QXL graphics adapter). Paolo
