Hi,

I took your script and did a python package.
https://github.com/lesthack/python_rdesktop_gui

Regards.

Can it be embeded to a pyqt5 application window?

No, it's a GTK app not QT.

@zeroSteiner,

Can you help me on how to embed RDP or any VNC in Qt application. Currently iam able to open RDP as a seperate process using python subprocess module.what i need is that remote window should be embeded with in my application to a fixed widget. Is it hard to do?Is there any possible ways that you knows to do this? TIA..
