webengine build crashes on windows [ONLY IN PARALLELS]

[Ivshti]

I'm opening an issue for this so we can track it.

the interesting part is that this just happened to me, the same problem, on a FRESH windows 10 VM with the webengine EXAMPLE and I'm starting to suspect parallels (my vm software)

Anyway, here's screenshots:

The funny thing is that when I tried to debug it, visual Studio also froze...

[Ivshti]

This is the best I could do, I realize it's not very useful. Couldn't find debug symbols

Will test on a real device ASAP

Seems this happens only on parallels

Here's on a real machine (stremio on top, vlc with big buck bunny on bottom)

The question still would remain what's the problem with parallels; chromium, electron, generic cef - all are ok with parallels

[RSATom]

Just use VirtualBox - it doesn't have such problems :)

[Ivshti]

If you see what parallels can do you'll redact that statement. It's like running windows natively :)

[RSATom]

Is it free to use?

[Ivshti]

No :)

Got a more useful stack trace

It seems like sending textures through the IPC isn't good

Anyway it's something inside QtWebEngine. Don't think it's relative to WebChimera-desktop itself.

Definitely, I agree - obviously the same issue happens in the webengine samples, but we should follow-up on that. Things like that could be symptoms to problems that can appear on other GPUs besides the parallels virtual GPU
