I have the same issue on hyprland. What graphics card do you have? It also works in OBS for me but not in any other app (tried firefox, chromium, telegram desktop) although for me the the resolution and framerate seem fine, just output a black screen |
Just an internal Intel Alder Lake-P |
@GladOSkar I have the same error on the latest version of Chromium and Firefox but not in Firefox ESR on Alpine Linux, which makes me think it's related to the Browser. Can you try with ESR aswell? Also related: #255. |
@spameier you're right, it works in Firefox ESR (102.9.0) for me as well |
Same issue here.
Working on:
System: Software: debug-pipewire-screencast.sh output Update: I was using the mesa-git package which I had a lot of graphical bugs on. I have since switched to mesa-amdonly-gaming-git which seems to have resolved both my general graphical glitches in the mesa bug report but also my screenshare capabilities. It's entirely possible that this was fixed in mesa HEAD and my switching of packages was a coincidence so I'll come back here and update once I've checked that. |
I use neither an AMD GPU nor do i have graphical glitches, so i doubt that'll help. But good to know! |
For me this issue does not seem to appear on the Flatpak version on Firefox, only on the Arch package version. |
Dropping pipewire to version 0.3.67 (from 0.3.69 and 0.3.70) resolved my issue; xdpw would report the same output as in this issue. Chrome/Chromium would report 'Failed to connect PipeWire context'. The Flatpak versions of things (Firefox/Chrome/Chromium) worked A-OK. Running 0.3.67 (working)
0.3.69/0.3.70 (not working)
|
it now works for me as of pipewire 0.3.71 |
it still doesnt work for me as of pipewire 0.3.71, nor 0.3.67:
edit: |
pipewire 0.3.71 does not work for me either. |
Tried it again today and suddenly it worked. Don't know what update was responsible, but here are my new versions:
I'll assume it was firefox, but who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ |
My issue is very similar to #88 and #99 but i didn't want to necro those.
