Hi,

Hmm, so we get a new protocol here.
A different idea which crossed my mind after reading the pipewire
article of last weeks lwn.net edition: pipewire has video support.
It also has audio support. gnome uses it for remote desktop support,
so support for cursors and mouse/keyboard backchannel should be there
too.
In other words: pipewire should have all the pieces needed to build a
qemu UI with it.
I haven't found the time yet to investigate more, but integrating qemu
with pipewire looks much more attractive to me than inventing a new
protocol ...
take care,
Gerd
