Screen sharing on apps other than OBS works for individual windows, but not full screen (hyprland nvidia patch)

[jacekjarosz55]

On Hyprland with NVIDIA 1660 Super, when selecting whole screen or just region for screen sharing, the output is black, despite sharing individual windows working flawlessly (hyprland-nvidia-git on arch linux).

On OBS everything seems to be working fine, but on discord, webcord, firefox, chromium and telegram-desktop it's just black for full screen.

make sure everything you want to screenshare in is running through native wayland

other than that, welcome to novideo:tm:

@vaxerski novideo it totally is, i made sure everything was running on wayland (also screen sharing wayland native applications work)

i guess my only option right now, since obs works, to just open a full screen preview inside of it and stream that

I have the same issue. I'm using the non-nvidia patch

I'm thinking it might be a frame size issue. Try selecting a smaller region on the screen and seeing if that works. Pipewire shows you a dialog to select what you want to share, select "region" and then pick a small region about the size of a phone screen.
