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

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.
(adding Brian properly this time) I think it makes sense to add it together with something…though maybe more related to SPICE clients. So adding Christophe for his thoughts… Thanks, michal
Thanks! iordan

The app in Google may be half year old but there is a movement in git [1] and the author recently called for testing or comments on spice-devel ML.

Hi,
The focus of our OPW internship program starting in December will be mobile and/or lightweight engine clients -- hopefully integrating the new ovirt.js project.

I see that there are some already existing mobile clients
for oVirt.
I'm trying to grasp what we have and what the needs are.
That's all I see on the first few pages of google.
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...
