Hi iordan, sorry for the long response time - it was Christmas... ;) As I see in the https://github.com/iiordanov/remote-desktop-clients/blob/master/eclipse_proj... the bVNC already has the support for calling it from outside using the intent mechanism but I don't understand how about aSPICE. As I understand, aSPICE is based on bVNC but I don't understand how exactly do they relate. Does it use the same Manifest just renamed? What is the mimeType than? If you could point me to a bit of documentation it would be great. About calling aSPICE and bVNC from outside using the .vv file - as I understand it is not supported for now, right? For us it does not make too big difference if you support the data using URI or .vv file - even the .vv may be preferred, but we will survive URI as well. One more question - does aSPICE support spice proxy? Thank you, Tomas ----- Original Message -----

Hey guys,
Thanks for remembering about Opaque. For those who are not familiar with the project, it is an oVirt/RHEV graphics console client which supports the SPICE protocol so far. It uses libgovirt to connect to the oVirt/RHEV API. I also created a separate pure SPICE client (called aSPICE) for Android based on libspice.
It would be nice if I got more feedback from Red Hat developers, but you guys are probably as busy as I am :). The app is getting attention on Google Play and people are using it successfully for their installations, it seems.
I have plans to add the following features to Opaque, time permitting:
- Ability to edit default settings, so that people who connect with console.vv file will be able to configure Audio, keyboard layout, etc. - The ability to allocate VMs from a pool. - The ability to control Audio Playback and Recording separately.
I don't think Opaque needs to get portal-management functionality.
I was contacted by an intern working on movirt (Sphoorti Joglekar, cc-ed), asking whether I would be willing to support a URI Intent scheme that movirt can use to launch aSPICE. I think I already have a pretty well specified URI scheme that may work for the purpose, so we'll see how that goes. I am wondering whether it wouldn't be better to launch aSPICE or Opaque with a console.vv file instead, though. I guess the developers of movirt will have to consider both options.
At any rate, Opaque is far from dead. I'm security supporting it, I just don't find a lot of time to work on additional features.
I am cc-ing Brian Proffitt, because at one point we discussed setting up Opaque as a sub-project of oVirt. I don't know whether there is any interest for that in Red Hat, or any interest at all in supporting mobile clients for oVirt/RHEV, etc. It would be nice to hear an official stance on the topic.
Thanks! iordan

There was also project from Iordanov about spice/oVirt support on android.. See: http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2013-December/018434.html
Some days ago it seems he go also support international keyboard layout support:
" I finally got some time to back-port the international keyboard layout support from the Android Ovirt client Opaque into the SPICE client aSPICE "
I made same preliminary tests at the end of 2013 but I was not able to connect to oVirt... I don't know actually how it went ahead... the Google channel seems stopped since February...
