Description

I occurs problems with screensharing on vesktop client of discord. My config related with pipewire and xdg-desktop-portal: 1)

{
  services.pipewire = {
    enable = true;
    alsa.enable = true;
    alsa.support32Bit = true;
    pulse.enable = true;
  };
}

  security = {
    polkit.enable = true;
    rtkit.enable = true;
  };
}

{ pkgs
, ...
}:
{
  xdg.portal = {
    enable = true;
    config = {
      common = {
        default = "*";
      };
    };
    extraPortals = [
      pkgs.xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland
      pkgs.xdg-desktop-portal-gtk
    ];
  };
}

How to reproduce

Install vesktop client. Try to screenshare entire screen or window with sound.

I assume you use Hyprland from nixpkgs and not from the from the flake?

I just tried vesktop and it is a bit scuffed, but it worked for me despite spamming this log: [794143:0929/142757.435965:ERROR:gbm_pixmap_wayland.cc(82)] Cannot create bo with format= YUV_420_BIPLANAR and usage=SCANOUT_CPU_READ_WRITE

Webcord works a bit better for me.

xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland got some improvements recently, so if you can try the flake on the latest commit, which includes latest xdph. (don't forgett portalPackage = inputs.hyprland.packages.${pkgs.system}.xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland;)

@PaideiaDilemma I'm using Hyprland from flakes. And I also tried package from Flatpak and AppImage (Same not properly work).

Here my flake file:

What commit are you on then? Please nix flake lock --update-input hyprland and

don't forgett portalPackage = inputs.hyprland.packages.${pkgs.system}.xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland;

In programs.hyprland that is.

d73c14751ad40fd54d93baac2226f550142b0e74 commit. And i configured Hyprland via home manager, and i can't use "portalPackage", how to do it with hm?

[fufexan]

@varmisa there's a PR open on Home Manager that would handle this (https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/pull/5707).

In the meantime, you can use

    xdg.portal = let 
      cfg = config.wayland.windowManager.hyprland;
    in {
      enable = true;
      extraPortals = [ inputs.hyprland.packages.${pkgs.system}.xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland ];
      configPackages = lib.mkDefault [ cfg.finalPackage ];
    };

[verysillycat]

using the lastest commit of xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland doesn't solve it here on arch linux (using xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland-git)
