Hi Spice team,
Thank you for all your hard work creating Spice.
I'm running a company where I provide virtual desktops to my
customers. Most of my customers want their virtual desktops to have
hardware GPU acceleration for smooth video playback, games, and such. So
the experience would be much more like being on a native machine.
I've looked at many different options out there, and there really
isn't one that fits the bill.
I have some questions for you all on how I can put my resources into
helping spice add hardware encode/decode to it's streaming.
From what I've read, it seems that it's possible to add a plugin such
as virgil to allow for 3d acceleration. While that project is aiming at
creating a full virtual 3d graphics device, is it possible or maybe even
easier to create a plugin that does hardware encode/decode on the host
gpu(s)?
And that leads me to my next question, would that be the best place to
add hardware acceleration? Or should the focus be elsewhere?
I've played with Parsec quite a bit, and it's streaming abilities are
amazing, allowing for 3d games to be played remotely with very little
latency.
Obviously nothing here is simple, but I'd like to get my developer
resources aimed in the right place, and any thoughts/feedback from your
team would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance, and I look forward to having my team help with the
project.
Best,
- Bob
