Probably a network issue, after which the data gets interpreted wrongly:

2023-07-13 18:00:24 [WARNING] 'Timed Out', retrying in 0 seconds...

But <Encoding.TIGHT: 7> is also not implemented; basically only <Encoding.RAW: 0> is implemented.

I seem to have a similar issue when trying to connect to the PiKVM VNC server. It fails with the following message in the server logs:

[main]: ... has_tight [] -- False
[main]: ... tight_jpeg_quality [] -- 0
[main]: ... has_h264 [] -- False
[main]: Error: Tight JPEG encoding is not supported by client

Since you mentioned that Tight is not implemented as an encoding, and the PiKVM docs mention this as a requirement, I'd assume there is no way around this.

As someone with zero knowledge of how VNC encodings work: Is this something that could relatively easily be added to vncdotool, or would this be a greater effort or maybe even impact functionality like expect?

pmhahn commented 1 year ago

While refactoring vncdotool I already had some quick thoughts on adding support for other encoding as vncdotool currently only supports RAW.

You would have to extend vncdotool.rfb.RFBClient._handleRectangle() to handle other formats. For JPEG that should be easy as we already depend on Pillow, which supports many formats: get the right number of octets from the network stream, pass it to Pillow for decoding, paste the result into the screen buffer.
Add the new format to vncdotool.rfb.RFBClient.SUPPORTED_ENCODINGS.
