Done in r21457 for x264.
To use it:
--video-encoders=x264
to ensure no other encoders will be usedXPRA_X264_BLANK_VIDEO=1
to enable this codeWe still use the x264 encoder, but it quickly figures out that there is nothing to compress and returns <1KB compressed data.
Things that differ from a real software / hardware encoder, and things we could do to improve things:
@max: please pass it on for server load testing to see if this makes enough of a difference to the maximum rated user density of your appliances.
