Michael Jumper commented on GUACAMOLE-313:
------------------------------------------

The main issue that needs to be overcome for this to be doable is recording of 
mouse position. The reason the cursor instruction is unimplemented in guacenc 
is that the currently-applicable mouse position is not actually present in the 
recording, and thus interpreting the instruction would be useless.

There have been recent changes which add mouse cursor reporting to the type of 
stream normally captured for screen recordings (see guacamole-server commit 
[ae7e8d3|https://github.com/apache/incubator-guacamole-server/commit/ae7e8d3890e6d08271f87551c4d501f8ff605bb3]),
 so this should be possible now ... providing that instruction can be included 
within the recording. Currently, screen recordings are shunted off the 
broadcast socket, which does not receive mouse position reporting.

> Exactly what it says in the description. Encoding a recording with guacenc 
> will not show the mouse (I tested it with RDP). I think it has something to 
> do with the fact that instruction_cursor.c doesn't do anything, but I don't 
> really understand enough about the workings of guacamole to be certain.
