Hi,

I am trying to disable video compression as per this thread:
https://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2017-January/078753.html

The thing is that I just can't figure out where to place the following:

<graphics type='spice' autoport='yes'>
    <listen type='address'/>
    <image compression='off'/>
    <streaming mode='filter'/>
</graphics>

If I attempt to edit vm properties by using virsh and add these custom settings, the configuration file gets overwritten once the vm reboots.

Any suggestions?

Thank you,

Leo

The easiest path is to get the source from your current rpm,
apply the patch mentioned in previous email, build, install,
test.

If that does not work you can rollback. If works, you can rethink
what is best.
