Around version 45, Firefox started being very particular about the time stamps put into the Opus stream. The time stamps from the Spice server are somewhat irregular. They mostly arrive every 10 ms, but sometimes it is 11, or sometimes with two time stamps the same in a row. The previous logic resulted in fuzzy and/or distorted audio streams in Firefox in a row. Thus, we end up with an inelegant hack. Essentially, we force every packet to have a 10ms time delta, unless there is an obvious gap in time stream, in which case we will resync. This replaces logic that mitigated only the duplicated time packets. The long term solution would appear to be 'sequence' mode, but I cannot get Firefox to use that mode (and MDN suggests that for codecs such as VP8 with time stamps in line, that Firefox will not accept it). |

Spice Javascript client
Instructions and status as of August, 2016.
Requirements:
1. Modern Firefox or Chrome (IE will work, but badly)
2. A WebSocket proxy
websockify:
https://github.com/kanaka/websockify
works great.
Note that a patch to remove this requirement has been submitted
to the Spice project but not yet been accepted. Refer to this email:
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/spice-devel/2016-June/030552.html
3. A spice server
Optional:
1. A web server
With firefox, you can just open file:///your-path-to-spice.html-here
With Chrome, you have to set a secret config flag to do that, or
serve the files from a web server.
Steps:
1. Start the spice server
2. Start websockify; my command line looks like this:
./websockify 5959 localhost:5900
3. Fire up spice.html, set host + port + password, and click start
Status:
The TODO file should be a fairly comprehensive list of tasks
required to make this client more fully functional.
