Add x264enc to flatpak #190

Open aaujon opened 4 days ago

aaujon commented 4 days ago

Hi,

This issue comes from : https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-network-displays/-/issues/425

When running gnome-network-displays with flatpak, video casting doesn't work on intel 4th gen (haswell) architecture because vah264enc is disabled on this generation (too buggy) Video casting works when I compile gnome-network-displays manually by using x264enc. Is it possible to add this encoder to that flatpak image ?

Thanks,

There shouldn't be a need to compile yourself when using the gnome-network-displays + gstreamer1-plugins-ugly RPMs on Fedora.

I don't think we can add x264enc to the Flatpak due to patent/licensing issues.

I will check using RPM and I will get back to you
