Re: [ovirt-users] benefit to spice-xpi plugin over native spice and remote-viewer

Hi. I'm wondering if someone can explain the benefit to using the spice-xpi plugin to access a console versus using remote-viewer "natively" from the browser, specifically on a RHEL system? In particular, if you have the virt-viewer package installed, and not spice-xpi, and you go to visit a console, then the client downloads the configuration file, /tmp/console.vv, and calls "remote-viewer /tmp/console.vv". On the other hand, if you have spice-xpi installed, it seems that the client doesn't need to download the configuration file first, but calls "remote-viewer --spice-controller". In both cases, it appears to me that the result is the same. However, using spice-xpi, there seems to be an additional 4 seconds delay before I get to the console. The time doesn't really matter. I'm just wondering if there's a benefit to using spice-xpi? Jason. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users(a)ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
