WDDM driver supports it on win7? Regarding win8: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd183413(v=vs.85).aspx: "Apps that you design to target Windows 8 and later can no longer query or set display modes that are less than 32 bits per pixel (bpp)" Imho we should more clearly state that we don't really support that feature moving forward. _______________________________________________ Spice-devel mailing list Spice-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/spice-devel
