I tried to reproduce this problem on a Win7-64 bit guest. Install Tools from SM96 build - QXL version 4.5.52832

I connected to guest with Spice and played the Africa demo video from website http://www.lithium.it/fvf/demoh264/demo720-africa.html and I could clearly see there was a small square in the video that's not rendering correctly. 

The problem seems to be that there is a red square which rotates when the video is buffering. Even when the red square is not showing up, the pixel area around the where the red square shows up is not rendering correctly about 75% of the time.

I tried the same video after connecting with VNC and did not see the problem. 

Will attach screenshots explaining the problem.

Shouldn't this be proposed for 2.2.z?  That is where it was found.  We will open a but against 3.0 if the issue is still there.

Comment 9 David Blechter 2011-12-15 19:17:24 UTC
the bug was cloned to 3.0. Was not reproducible with new qxl driver (v.14). There is no intent to fix it in 2.2
