capture-rewrite not working with unity (compiz)

[lgraf]

When i use the latest revision (3d9584e), tracking of games has stopped working for me. I use a mostly plain ubuntu 16.04 with unity/compiz.

When i start hearthstone and inspect the debug log i don't see any message about hearthstone is starting and no log messages are following. Not sure about the root cause, but it seams that the state detection is already broken.

When i revert to de92497, track-o-bot works again. (log message about starting, capturing, uploading, etc.).

Thanks for the great work! Luca

are you by any chance using multimonitor setup?

[lgraf]

No, running it on a lenovo t440, no external display is used.

Same problem here @angrylinuxuser on plasma desktop Kubuntu 16.04 with multi-monitor setup.

[angrylinuxuser]

Could you test if f27a8d1f08b60c357fd626292baee4fb0afe75f7 is at fault here or the next one? In vm it tracks games for me but i have to install ubuntu on metal to test screen capture cuz 2fps hs in vm is a disaster. On archlinux its working fine. ( multimonitor might be broken for rank detection if hs is not on a main monitor but it was broken before i think. I have a code to fix rank detection for MM but i have to rewrite it )

Tested with f27a8d1 and capturing is not working.

[angrylinuxuser]

Something must be going on ill try to figue it out cuz on my first run i had problems with capture info not showing up in log but after a restart: everything works. Ill make code more verbose to se whats going on.

[lgraf]

If i can support you with debugging/testing under ubuntu, just let me know. Thank you for looking into this!

[angrylinuxuser]

could you try this branch https://github.com/angrylinuxuser/track-o-bot/tree/no-capture-fix ?

[angrylinuxuser]

Ok, now im not able to reproduce it under ubuntu. I think my initial problem was related to hastening thru installation of hs and not restarting it after configuration of tob.

Could You please try using tob from the branch above? It is more verbose. Also could You please enable debug mode if disabled. Is your hs full-screen or windowed ( if full-screen try using windowed to see if three are any changes ) And please play 5-6 round in adventure ( no matter what ) and upload a log file from ~/.local/share/spidy.ch/Track-o-Bot/Track-o-Bot.log ( take out your account name from it if its there).

@BOSSoNe0013 MM works fine and it did by the looks of things. Again i was trying to fix something that wasn't broken.

One thing that what i would like to fix is that the only valid pixmaps that rank detection gets are those that are grabbed when window isn't obstructed or minimized but that requires looking at composite extension.

[BOSSoNe0013]

I'm using this branch and tracking does not work and nothing is displayed in the console after login information.

[angrylinuxuser]

Do you have qtcreator isntalled with gdb? If yes could you put a breakpoint at Hearthstone::Update and LinuxWindowCapture::WindowFound and step thru there?

[BOSSoNe0013]

This test does not pass in LinuxWindowCapture::FindWindow if( !qstrcmp( wmNameR.class_name, windowClass.toStdString().c_str() ) && !qstrcmp( wmNameR.instance_name, instanceName.toStdString().c_str() ) ) {

[angrylinuxuser]

Now we are onto something. Can you xprop Hearthstone window and tell me WM_CLASS? Mine looks like WM_CLASS(STRING) = "Hearthstone.exe", "Wine"

[BOSSoNe0013]

WM_CLASS(STRING) = "Hearthstone.exe", "Hearthstone.exe" That's it !

[angrylinuxuser]

Do you use wine from official repo or the one from play on linux. We have to figure out now if the instance name is enough or do we need checks for class Im running on ubuntu the one from playonlinux but ill check now the official one

[BOSSoNe0013]

i'm using wine-1.9.7 (Staging)

[BOSSoNe0013]

I've tested by replacing && by || and all is working, event rank detection. I think that instance name is enough.

[angrylinuxuser]

Ok:) commit that fix:) ill rewrite a litle linuxwidowcapture with QScopedPointer to reduce the number of spaghetti if else code. then ill try to use composite extension to grap pixmaps of windows hidden ( but that will take a while since i dont know much about it :)

[BOSSoNe0013]

Done

Just did some smoke test with the current master and logging about starting, capturing appeared again. Looks good!
