Description Lukas Venhoda 2015-11-04 17:52:33 UTC

When using --spice-preferred-compression=lz4 image in virt-viewer freezes.
This is probably because server doesn't support lz4.
Should probably fallback to a different image compression, when server doesn't support lz4

How to reproduce:
1. Connect to VM using virt-viewer with option
--spice-preferred-compression=lz4
2. Try to open a folder, or right click on desktop.

Double check if your spice-server has this commit as well

Fix in commit 6c4f11191c8eb343a53c70a6c79fdb03158ef1df in spice.
