SPICE Enhancements
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
SPICE Enhancements are optional features that can improve the remote viewer
|
||||
experience.
|
||||
|
||||
To enable them via the GUI go to the *Options* panel of the virtual machine. Run
|
||||
the following command to enable them via the CLI:
|
||||
|
||||
----
|
||||
qm set <vmid> -spice_enhancements foldersharing=1,videostreaming=all
|
||||
----
|
||||
|
||||
NOTE: To use these features the <<qm_display,*Display*>> of the virtual machine
|
||||
must be set to SPICE (qxl).
|
||||
|
||||
Folder Sharing
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
Share a local folder with the guest. The `spice-webdavd` daemon needs to be
|
||||
installed in the guest. It makes the shared folder available through a local
|
||||
WebDAV server located at http://localhost:9843.
|
||||
|
||||
For Windows guests the installer for the 'Spice WebDAV daemon' can be downloaded
|
||||
from the
|
||||
https://www.spice-space.org/download.html#windows-binaries[official SPICE website].
|
||||
|
||||
Most Linux distributions have a package called `spice-webdavd` that can be
|
||||
installed.
|
||||
|
||||
To share a folder in Virt-Viewer (Remote Viewer) go to 'File -> Preferences'.
|
||||
Select the folder to share and then enable the checkbox.
|
||||
|
||||
NOTE: Folder sharing currently only works in the Linux version of Virt-Viewer.
|
||||
|
||||
Video Streaming
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
Fast refreshing areas are encoded into a video stream. Two options exist:
|
||||
|
||||
* *all*: Any fast refreshing area will be encoded into a video stream.
|
||||
* *filter*: Additional filters are used to decide if video streaming should be
|
||||
used (currently only small window surfaces are skipped).
|
||||
|
||||
A general recommendation if video streaming should be enabled and which option
|
||||
to choose from cannot be given. Your mileage may vary depending on the specific
|
||||
circumstances.
|
||||
|
||||
Troubleshooting
|
||||
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||||
|
||||
Shared folder does not show up
|
||||
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
|
||||
|
||||
Make sure the WebDAV service is enabled and running in the guest. On Windows it
|
||||
is called 'Spice webdav proxy'. In Linux the name is 'spice-webdavd' but can be
|
||||
different depending on the distribution.
|
||||
|
||||
If the service is running, check the WebDAV server by opening
|
||||
http://localhost:9843 in a browser in the guest.
|
||||
|
||||
It can help to restart the SPICE session.
