I grab your exact versions and compiled them again. At the beginning I still had some problems with codecs and security settings (seccomp was enabled causing Qemu to crash on gstreamer code ,turned off). However even after solving them the result is not that great. The video is not fluid and when there are some updates it is almost "garbage". Which type of GPU are you using? I'm using integrated Intel and I remember they have a not-linear memory addressing for textures which lead to these garbaged style images due to trying to interpret memory as linear. I also had to change spice-gtk due to a missing specification in the encoder. Which client did you use? Which version? Maybe the bug was introduced later. Also I have some warnings in Qemu logs due to attempts to create primary surfaces multiple times. By the way, the code looks better than the previous version but as commented the running behaviour is not that great. The style (well, also the style of spice code I have to admit) is a bit "messy" but better to fix the big problems first than try to solve everything at once.
