blue-recorder doesn't work under Ubuntu 22.04 when installed from snap store #36

Open danboid opened 2 years ago

danboid commented 2 years ago

I am running GNOME 42.2 Wayland under Ubuntu 22.04 and I'm using Intel UHD graphics. I installed blue-recorder via the snap store but it doesn't work for me. I have tried recording both a full window and an area of the screen but in both cases the video file contains no video (its all black) and I either get no sound or a garbled mess of noise.

I have tried recording to both mkv and avi with the same results. I have not tried the flatpak or building from source.

Wayland. Ubuntu 22.04 GNOME 42.

Works for me on Xorg, same OS. Used the following commands:

sudo snap install blue-recorder
sudo snap connect blue-recorder:audio-record
sudo snap connect blue-recorder:screencast-legacy

Yes but snap port still working on progress

Hopefully related / same issue: Installed via flatpak on OpenSuse Leap 15.5. Wayland.

When trying to start / starting a recording, independent of file format selected (e.g. MP4) a ".webm" file with desired name in desired folder is created. Blue recorder says "recording" and shows the elapsed time. But file size stays at 0 bytes. Results in file being deleted when recording is stopped.

If this is flat / snap specific, or a Wayland issue: Please advice if i should open a separate issue. My intention is to wait, to get notified here when this maybe will be fixed in future.

Currently all screen recorders I've used before, "shipped" with OpenSuse, are broken for Wayland. German magazine "c't" mentioned in an recent article that Blue Recorder works on Wayland, that's why I've tried :)
