Just note that this probably requires Vinagre rebuild including the following fix: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/vinagre/-/merge_requests/12.

Comment 7 Ondrej Holy 2020-05-20 14:25:07 UTC
Just note that 2.1.1 is going to be released soon.

Comment 8 Ondrej Holy 2020-05-25 12:09:53 UTC
Just note that there is also kdenetwork-krdc package which also depends on freerdp, but it calls the binary directly, so it should not be a problem there. However, I have some connection problems over kdenetwork-krdc even with the 2.0.0-rc4 version, so it would be worth to investigate this...

Comment 11 Ondrej Holy 2020-05-27 10:52:02 UTC
Just note that the `/multimedia` option (which corresponds to  `--plugin drdynvc --data tsmf` in the old syntax and is defined by [MS-RDPEV]) is no more available with 2.1.1 version and `/video` option (defined by [MS-RDPEVOR]) is expected to be used instead. This is because the TSMF channel is unmaintained and not used since Windows 7. See for more details: https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/pull/5906

Comment 12 Ondrej Holy 2020-05-27 11:36:17 UTC
I have just fired a new build including https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/pull/6238 fix for loading of shared libraries that prevented usage of /video option.

Comment 14 Oliver Ilian 2020-06-19 11:27:29 UTC
2 testers reported no issues and everything works as expected
