2=============

4QEMU can export the VM display through D-Bus (when started with ``-display
5dbus``), to allow out-of-process UIs, remote protocol servers or other
6interactive display usages.
7
8Various specialized D-Bus interfaces are available on different object paths
9under ``/org/qemu/Display1/``, depending on the VM configuration.
10
11QEMU also implements the standard interfaces, such as
12`org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable
13<https://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html#standard-interfaces>`_.
