Different versions of Xpra may fail to negotiate some encodings. That's why checking "Session Info" --> "Features" on client after attaching to server might be useful. If you're running incompatible versions of libav packages then I'm afraid even Xpra developers won't be able to help... > If you'd actually have taken the time to check the package list I > provided, you'd noticed than "without dmo" means exactly "without using > any packages from deb-multimedia.org", as the package list shows.

I did check the list of the packages but I found you remark "without dmo" confusing. As long as you have any DMO packages on server or on client I will not accept this bug. It is a known incompatibility between ours and DMO packages. Please make sure that you are only using official Debian repositories and have no DMO packages on client and server -- everything will work for you if you comply. > I can file another bug not mentioning dmo, if you insist on that, too. There is no need to file another bug and there is nothing I can do about your problem unfortunately. You're not the first Xpra user who experienced troubles with DMO packages. That's one of the reasons to use only official Debian repositories. -- Cheers, Dmitry Smirnov GPG key : 4096R/53968D1B
