Highlights

  • The new ext-image-copy-capture-v1 protocol has been implemented for output
    capturing.
  • A file descriptor created by a parent process can be used for listening for
    new connections, thanks to Attila Fidan.
  • Clipboard handling has been made more robust, thanks again to Attila Fidan.
  • WayVNC can now allocate CMA backed pixel buffers. They are required for
    hardware encoding on Raspberry Pi.
  • Keyboard LED state can be passed to clients.

See Neat VNC's release notes for more highlights.

Bug fixes

  • Output power management is now only enabled while capturing.
