I think it is doable, it is just hard. The reason it is hard is because as I understand it the MS-RDPEV extension wants full MPEG2/H.264 etc. files, while the VAAPI extension only accepts the media stream after it has been removed from the file container. Hence you would need to repack the file into the file container aka make it a full MPEG2/H.264 etc. file again that could be saved to disk before you stream it over to the RDP client. > - if browsers actually implement it well (I will test Chrome...) > - if we get enough people interested to support this development > Like I said in my opinion starting out with the RemoteFX method is the best way. It has other uses and a whole bunch of code already exists. For example FreeRDP has code for both the video encoder and deocder complete with SSE versions for Intel and NEON for ARM. > Cheers Gustavo > > P.S.: We also tested Pi both with X11 clients and dfreerdp and > although it works basic window dragging is super sluggish.
