Hi I have been comparing the compression achieved by various encoding schemes in the following two scenarios :
a) Using the -vnc option with qemu b) Creating a vnc server inside the guest The vnc viewer I am using is xtightvnc. My guest is gentoo OS and my qemu version is 0.13.0 I have observed a peculiar thing : the compression achieved in scenario `a` is much more than that achieved with scenario `b` if the encoding scheme is "tight" and all other parameters are same. The same does not happen if other encoding schemes ( raw/hextile etc) are used. I am running videos on vlc media player and measuring the total bandwidth consumed during a single run. Am I missing something? Thanks Ankur
