Description quicksilver03 2024-10-15 12:25:29 UTC
SUMMARY
As a user with 2 screens, I'm unable to start a KRdp session because the combined size of the 2 screens is more than what the hardware is able to encode.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enable Remote Desktop on a computer (the server), make sure that the krdpserver process is running
2. Connect 2 screens to the server, to create a desktop wide enough (5120 pixels in my case)
3. Try to connect from a remote system

OBSERVED RESULT
The RDP window on the remote system appears for a split second and then closes; a log on the remote system states "The disconnection was initiated by the user logging off their session on the server".
A log entry on the server states:

Oct 15 14:07:05 cobalt krdpserver[274114]: [h264_vaapi @ 0x7f84f422ec80] Hardware does not support encoding at size 5120x1440 (constraints: width 256-4096 height 128-2304).

DESIRED RESULT
If I could choose to share one screen on krdpserver, instead of the whole desktop, then the video hardware would be able to keep up and RDP connection could be established.
