TOS 7 - VMs App functionality.

I understand both TOS 7 and the new vm app are a work in progress, I tried it out for myself, tried a windows 7 x64 pro vm as well as windows 10 x64 pro since there are guest tools linked as compatible for both. Being somewhat familiar with vm's I encountered an issue with windows 7's guest tools, attaching the iso for virtio-win 0.1.173 results in a message reading only windows 8 or server 2012 and later are supported by the guest tools. So I try spinning up a windows 10 pro installation, no display driver support other than the basic driver.

I haven't touched the bios

Is it possible to get basic display acceleration under windows 7 or 10 in the vm? I have a niche use case I where I need basic hardware video acceleration. It requires windows with Media center support.


F4-423 running tos 7.0.0517
32gb system memory
Bios/initboot 5.19
VMs app beta version 1.0.042

Here's my settings for the vm

Currently, hardware acceleration for video is not supported.

We are currently researching the demand for hardware video acceleration using the CPU's integrated graphics.
