The noVNC HTML application recently added support for this encoding. There is also an open pull request to add audio support to noVNC: https://github.com/novnc/noVNC/pull/1952 With that in place, the web based VNC console is good enough to display a VM showing a video with reasonable bandwidth. Possible improvements: - Dynamic switching to/from H264 mode at high change rates - Support for hardware encoders We may also extend the RFB Audio protocol with "opus" encoding, because uncompressed audio need too much bandwidth.
