Depends on upstream component. Note the support within RHEV is limited, as there is not much activity in the project...

based on above comment spice HTML 5 is still not happening
David, do we know the plans ot support it?

Comment 9 Martin Tessun 2017-08-03 03:04:15 EDT

Hi Karim,

as we do not plan to get spice-html5 to a full feature (it has always been Tech Preview), we are deprecating this with RHV 4.2

If you are interessted in this feature, please try getting this done upstream. Also check https://eyeos.com for a different solution to spice-html5.

Closing this as WONTFIX.

Thanks,
Martin
