RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Fixed In Version: spice-server-0.12.3-1.el6
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: On migration, the destination host does not send the client its multi-media time (does not send MSG_MAIN_INIT). Consequence (from comment #0): If there is no audio playback, and the 2 hosts that are involved in migration have different uptime, the client that is connected during migration, holds the multi-media time of the source server. Then, video frames that are created after migration (and thus hold the destination mm-time), are dropped by the client. Fix: Make destination host send multi-media time after migration. Result: Video without audio now plays successfully.

Description Yonit Halperin 2013-04-30 19:31:21 UTC
Description of problem:
If there is no audio playback, and the 2 hosts that are involved in migration have different uptime, the client that is connected during migration, holds the multi-media time of the source server. Then, video frames that are created after migration (and thus hold the destination mm-time), are dropped by the client.

Disconnecting and reconnecting the client will eliminate the inconsistency.

How reproducible:
(1) VM without audio device (I'm not sure that just muting the sound will stop sending audio frames to the client).
(2) connect a client to the vm
(3) migrate between 2 hosts with significantly different mm-time
(4) play video.
    An alternative to (1) is to play a video without a soundtrack.

Additional info:
When there is a soundtrack, the client updates it mm-time by using the audio frames mm-time.
This bug is complementary to bug #951664
