@dapper stag thoughts on a vesktop known issues channel now that's there's a separate support channel for it

Things like why won't screenshare work, why no global keybinds

remote light
#

why leak memory blobhuskcozy

fiery mesa
#

why vesktop husk on windows

neat escarp
#

why screenshare so bad

remote light
#

cuz native windows development is fucking ass blobcatcozy

fervent sky
low oasis
#

@fervent sky this is your new home

fervent sky
#

screenshare sucks because developing it FUCKING sucks

low oasis
#

you love this channel

fervent sky
#

keybinds are in development

#

all there is to know

fervent sky
low oasis
#

i will make an issue asking these exact same questions

#

@fervent sky is typing...

fervent sky
#

Q: Why does Vesktop not have Global Keybinds
A: This is an in-development feature. Please be patient

Q: Why does X screenshare feature not work
A: It's either a Chromium issue which we cannot control OR it isnt implemented and likely never will.

If you are a dev and want a a feature, Send patches.!!!

#

ok pin that and lock this channel

low oasis
#

what if i pinned that

fervent sky
#

I'll be memory hole-ing the existence of this channel

#

bye

is there a way to change or get rid of this blurry icon when launching vesktop on linux,

So when I try to screenshare with vesktop on windows it wont screenshare when I click the button.

My stream appears all sorts of messed up for my friends, including inverted colors and just failing to load, ive tried using x11 and wayland as well as switching to the flatpak version of vesktop and nothing fixes it

check the docs for screensharing on your platform

take away wayland permission from the flatpak with flatseal

does not work,,, i'm assuming it's supposed to be this one

just use the aur version then

Hi, I've been having an issue where vesktop will go blank and stop working out of nowhere when i'm screensharing.

  • GPU: NVIDIA RTX 2060 Super (drivers: nvidia-open 570.124.04-2)
  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X

Some things that are noteworthy:

  • This only happens when i'm screensharing, and it typically takes approximately 10-15 minutes to occur (but it might be completely random for all I know)
  • This has been an issue for quite a while, but if I had to guess it started happening around 3-6 months ago.
  • This happens both when sharing with audio and without.
  • the SyncReader::Read timed out messages only occur at the time of the crash.

Issue still occurs but the pipewire-related warnings are gone. journalctl still shows the nvidia_drm error at the time of the crash

This issue is only happening with Vesktop. When I try to launch Vesktop it takes 1-3 minutes to launch. After it launches, it works as expected. I tried disabling Wayland, but that just causes it to not launch at all. It takes roughly 40 seconds between the "GPU process exited" messages.

Wayland socket is available, running natively on Wayland.
To disable, remove the --socket=wayland permission.

you can run vesktop with --disable-gpu but your issues are much deeper than that you should fix it properly

every time i join a vc on vesktop, it fails on the first try (rtc disconnected or gets stuck on orange text), but when i disconnect and try again it works flawlessly. this doesnt happen on the regular discord client. any ideas?

Hey there, stupid lil issue : after accidentally resizing vesktop, it's being quite laggy and glitchy (stuff randomly blinking , moving around for no reason etc...). I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling (I'm using the flatpak) but it doesn't change anything. I use no theme, no nothing

#

I've also tried repair & reset, respectively

green nebula
#

after tinkering a bit left and right, I found that ~/.var/app/dev.vencord.Vesktop/config/Vesktop/state.json gets reseted to a weird value with "width": 1806 & "height": 1009 despite my monitor being 1920x1080. I modified these values directly but it doesn't fix much (the window size is fine but it glitches all the same) and the second time I start vencord it gets back to the previous weird state

Recently my whole desktop has started to just freeze for like 25ish seconds when I play videos
These are the only loogs that seem out of place in journalctl, which make my think it comes from vencord

if your entire desktop is freezing, this is a problem way bigger than vesktop

find the actual culprit

The only time this ever happens is when I play a video in vesktop

It also happens several times afterwards, but stops once I close vesktop

fervent sky
#

does it happen in pure chromium

#

I'll give it a try

timber dragon
#

its going to be a problem in your graphical stack somewhere, regular ass applications don't typically have the ability to freeze your system now, that would be an icredibly bad security flaw

hi! I'm having a strange issue on Vesktop where when I have my camera turned on for a video call, it stops working for the other person on the call after a few minutes (either frozen or loading squares).

Hey, I would like to bring up a couple of issues with the Vesktop app for Linux (Still unsure if this is just a Discord issue though).
Distro: Arch Linux
Installation Method: flatpak/AUR
So first issue is the increasing amount of CPU usage the app uses whilst streaming over time and the other issue is with having others not be able to see my stream because the stream on the other end just goes black really frequently and has no audio even if I select the right sources.

-# reposted because i got ghosted earlier
hey guys, my vesktop's integrated arRPC isn't working - i have the arRPC plugin enabled and the setting enabled in vesktop settings, yet it doesn't connect to the built-in implementation of the server. it only connects to the external implementation i have running via NPX, anyone knows why this is happening and how to fix it? The npx running version tells me "Port 6463 is busy, using 6464", yet the bridge on 1337 isn't busy. there's discord-ipc-0 (I believe this is Vesktop's implementation) and discord-ipc-1 (npx) in /run/user/1000 (my user)
arRPC complains with there being discord-ipc-0 created by vesktop, so decides to use discord-ipc-1
however, when i have the internal implementation disabled, it's oddly still complaining. is this a bug i uncovered?

Arch Linux 6.13.4-arch1-1
Vesktop latest (through Updater in vencord) installed via AUR (yay)

waxen oracle
#

and it doesn't complain about ports being busy after the vesktop arrpc doesn't work

#

Without the vesktop integration

[arRPC] arRPC v3.5.0
[arRPC > bridge] listening on 1337
[arRPC > ipc] listening at /run/user/1000/discord-ipc-0
[arRPC > websocket] listening on 6463
[arRPC > process] started
[arRPC > bridge] web connected
#
$ ls /run/user/1000/ | grep discord-ipc-0
discord-ipc-0

currently, the external arrpc is stopped, arRPC isn't connecting, the vesktop implementation is running

#

like it exists, but why!?!?!? why does the app discriminate?

#

now with the vesktop implementation and the external arRPC says

[arRPC] arRPC v3.5.0
[arRPC > bridge] listening on 1337
[arRPC > ipc] not available, trying again (attempt 1)

hello which plugin is this

hello fellow Vencord members! I've joined because I've been experiencing an issue which I'm not sure whether it's from Vesktop itself or Discord.

Ever since a couple of updates ago, I have been having constant issues with voice-chat losing connection. When I initially migrated into Linux, this issue was not happening, but now everytime I try to Stream, I get the issue, sometimes even when I'm not streaming and I'm on call playing games with friends, it still does it.

It is quite annoying to be honest and I was hoping to know if there was a solution for it?

Thanks in advance.

Just in case, my OS is Nobara GNOME 41

Hey, I would like to bring up a couple of issues with the Vesktop app for Linux (Still unsure if this is just a Discord issue though).
Distro: Arch Linux
Installation Method: flatpak/AUR
So first issue is the increasing amount of CPU usage the app uses whilst streaming over time and the other issue is with having others not be able to see my stream because the stream on the other end just goes black really frequently and has no audio even if I select the right sources.

fervent sky
#

going black is a chromium/discord issue. disable hardware encoding.
increasing CPU usage while streaming is odd
no audio: make sure you use pipewire

glad beacon
#

I think I tried disabling hardware encoding once and it didn't help. Also I am using Pipewire

topaz canopy
#

At least you have sources to select blobcatcozy

#

Apparently no one in this server uses a distro without systemd

Heyo, I just switched to Vesktop. A theme I used on normal Vencord removed the default window top bar and replaced it with a custom one, but now that doesn’t happen on Vesktop. Is this a theme problem, or is it just something I'll have to deal with?

No it's an electron bug afaik

So you can't really change it until electron fixes it, unless you compile vesktop with an older electron (which is probably a horrible idea and definitely unsupported)

For some reason my Vesktop streams the audio of other people in a VC whenever I stream. I also use easyeffects so maybe it's just sharing output audio from it.

why would they be named differently if you have to do different things to access different versions?

Unless you mean the version tag is the same then in which stuff like electron will still be different because you know...

what?

theyre the same tag meaning they have the same vesktop version

Hello there, I joined the sv to follow up a discarded issue I posted on the github repo. I thought it was more quick and comfortable for you guys to post it here instead of the github page, if you feel it's better to see it on said ticket please lemme know.

#

Anyways, I've been having issues with some rich presence apps. The activities are not shown on my profile, and when I open the console inspector I get these error messages multiple times.

#

If I open the vesktop app through the terminal, these are the logs that are generated. It seems that arRPC is connecting with the apps successfully and doesn't generate any error log.

#

The OS I'm using is Linux, the distro is Fedora 41 Workstation Edition

#

And the Vestkop app was installed using the RPM package

#

I also installed the discord-flatpak-rpc-bridge script to get working some flatpak apps I use

did you guys do anything to fix vesktop not taking the desktop theme's cursor (linux), or did the problem just fix itself?

#

because it is back to normal and i dont know why

#

also would it be possible to make the icons indicator id something other than chrome_status_icon_1

#

it doesnt work well with other apps that also use that same type of naming scheme

#

vesktop and another one of my apps share the same indicator id

#

i have no idea how they do not break eachother, but i cant custom theme either of them if they both share the same name

#

without having to compile vesktop myself

#

i dont like having dev-tools on my personal machine

#

tl;dr:
please change the app indicator id, if possible, it conflicts with other apps

Hey ! On KDE 6 Wayland, when I put vencord in the background and try to bring it back (either by clicking the pinned icon or the tray icon), it sometimes doesn't show up, and I have to restart it. Vanilla discord doesn't have this issue.

hi everyone, I've been using Vesktop but after the last update, the screenshare shares all audio from my PC, not just the game I'm sharing (I'm sharing the game window, not the full desktop)
I search around and saw Venmic which seems to have an option to fix exactly that, but I have no idea how to find it in my Vesktop build (latest, 1.5.5)

chrome stag
#

thanks

violet echo
#

Also I don't see this option at all when trying to share my screen, in my version of Vesktop it just has a toggle for "share audio", I can't pick where the audio is coming from

violet echo
#

yes

oblique valley
#

venmic is for linux, vesktop screenshare isn't that optimized on windows.
use the official client if this is important to you

violet echo
#

I see

#

I can't go back to official client because of the plugins I use, so I guess it's back to BetterDiscord. Or maybe the regular installation of vencord if it doesn't mess up the audio as bad as Vesktop..

silk current
#

Which plugins?

violet echo
silk current
#

the web/vesktop only plugins are only required because of web discord limitations

unless screensharing works better on vesktop in some way for some reason

A friend and I are both having a peculiar issue with Vesktop (flatpak, Bazzite, KDE). For some reason, the microphone input is mixing the audio output from our default web browsers with the actual microphone audio. The audio monitor in Voice & Video settings also shows very erratic microphone activity even when the microphone is physically unplugged and no audio is playing on the system. Muting the microphone through system settings freezes Vesktop's audio monitor wherever it is at the time rather than it dropping to zero.

These strange behaviors are only observed in Vesktop. In stock Discord (flatpak) or Vencord, the audio monitor drops to zero when the microphone is unplugged, showing no erratic behavior, and they don't inexplicably pick up the web browser's audio as if it was mic audio.

We've tried restarting pipewire, restarting Vesktop, rebooting our systems, and using the reset/repair options from right-clicking the vesktop tray icon, but the problem has persisted.

Is the AUR package official? Recently Vesktop stopped opening (grey screen) even after a complete reinstall. Before reporting more about my system or checking out the alternative downloads, I am prefacing with this question first, wondering if the AUR package was ever officially supported.

P.S. the FAQ references the dead plugin request GitHub page. Might want to remove that reference

#

It appears not, so disregard my question

is there a way to see which plugin is causing vesktop to lag? or are there plugins that are known to slow down the client?

Hi guys, I can install Vencord, it says hold on, how can I solve this problem?

chrome stag
#

also all my friends who have complained are on Windows 10 using discord client with Vencord

so the issue appears to be when vesktop is streaming to discord on windows
even when streaming to the normal discord client from vesktop on my machine it appears fine

discords native module is definitely cooked. totally out of date with upstream webrtc

so i think web -> client (windows) is the only one that fails

and sadly i dont have a windows machine to test this

I have also encountered some streaming video weirdness the last couple of times I used Vesktop (flatpak, Bazzite, KDE) for it, similar to @chrome stag and @chrome stag, when streaming to folks who are on Windows. The earliest I noticed was late January, when my webcam feed showed green nonsense on a friend's system, but previewed fine on my own system. Another group of friends last month also said my screen share was all green when I was using Vesktop, but not when I tried Vencord.

In all cases, webcam or screenshare video streamed just fine when I used any other Discord client such as Vencord, and another friend on Bazzite has had no issues using Zoom for video calls. It's an issue which only seems to affect Vesktop.

They might not be able to even enable the Discord console, it's apparently disabled in the Stable client and even the workaround of editing a config file fails when I try it in a vm

This has been a big help. qpwgraph isn't showing any other audio source connecting to the microphone except chromium (Vesktop), so after more experimentation with microphone levels, audio recording, and Discord settings, my current theory is it's some kind of EM crosstalk in hardware combined with Discord's automatic gain and noise suppression. On my system at least, it doesn't seem to actually be isolated to Vesktop like I first thought, and is a small but systemwide effect which can be eliminated with the right configuration; I'll have to see if my friend's issue can be narrowed down to similar reasons or if there's more to it for both of us.

Anyway, thanks again for the help.

in hyprland (wayland) linux i have tha bug that when i have my camera open and start a screenshare vesktop crashed
and if i FIRST close my cam...
thenm start screen
then open cam...
everything is fine....

#

what was the command to trigger an vesktop version check to send vencord/top in the chat?

primal rose
#

you mean /vencord-debug or /vencord-plugins

timber dragon
#

it doesn't work here (yet)

primal rose
#

was just abt to point that out

timber dragon
#

you woul dneed to do it in #🤖-bot-commands

patent cloak
#

is there any way to stream a portrait oriented monitor in wayland? when I try it streams portrait, but flipped 90 degrees

#

tbf it could also be because of how hyprland handles screen orientation

dapper stag
#

works for me on gnome

#

system issue probably

patent cloak
#

yeah mine shows like this

#

i'm 99% certain it's bc of Hyprland. I'll try it out on kde when I get the chance

Hi

#

Can someone help me with virtual audio cables

#

I am trying to get around a Vesktop bug

#

I want to stream a program with just that program's audio

#

I am on Windows

#

Thank you

#

Is there a reason why every time I start up Vesktop it logs me out of my discord account forces me to re-login every single time?

# fervent sky just pass the disable feature encoding and decoding flags

hi, sorry to get back to you so late.

with the following flags:

/usr/bin/vesktop --enable-features=WaylandWindowDecorations --disable-features=AcceleratedVideoDecodeLinuxGL,AcceleratedVideoDecoder,AcceleratedVideoEncoder,AcceleratedVideoDecodeLinuxZeroCopyGL --enable-logging --ozone-platform-hint=auto 

the problem still occurs, but --disable-gpu seems to fix it? I'll have to test it some more to verify, but at least i can confirm this is not a VAAPI related issue

#

i'd rather not use --disable-gpu because it causes discord to use software rendering and hog my cpu

hi

#

Can someone tell me what plugin this person uses to leave the bar here close to the server?

#

the one at the top, where it says SAMU, I wanted to know how to make it like that

Steamer mode one

topaz canopy

(this forces it to run through Xwayland)

versed sleet
#

Oh

#

topaz canopy
#

Anyways, try to force Xwayland

spark niche
topaz canopy
#

it should also work natively somehow

spark niche
#

my bar remains the discord default

timber dragon
# spark niche dont worked

Because they were misunderstanding what you mean.

the visual refresh is not a plugin, or a theme, it's a discord experiment that some users are being enrolled into slowly.

spark niche
#

I wanted to put that one in the print

timber dragon
#

You can force it with the experiments plugin, but this is not vesktop related so you're in the wrong channel & we aren't the most knowledgeable about experiments and can't help with them

Hi, in vesktop the built in aRPC only detects some games but not all. For example it detects deep rock and monster hunter world but not like a dragon

ruby dagger
#

Is there any form to update the database manually or it needs to be update by the devs?

oblique valley
#

it can't be updated

fervent sky
#

although some things might still not be included as discord does fuzzy matching which arrpc doesnt

ruby dagger
#

Okay, thanks!

fervent sky
solar sphinx
#

because Im using the flatpak

#

and I cant seem to fix the issue

fervent sky
#

i mean flatpak run dev.vencord.Vesktop -- --flags doesnt work?

solar sphinx
#

I can try it

#

what flags do I need to use?

fervent sky
#

those flags with the one I mentioned as invalid

solar sphinx
#

can I somehow incorporate them with flatseal, so that it actually runs stuff correctly every time?

fervent sky
#

i dunno

#

use google

oblique valley
solar sphinx
#

hmm I see

#

so what exactly do I run? before I mess up

fervent sky
#

go read what I said 😭

oblique valley
#

if you use KDE rightclick vesktop in start menu then edit

else google it

solar sphinx
#

Yeah Im on KDE

solar sphinx
# fervent sky go read what I said 😭

Yeah, but I am kinda stupid so, do I just do

flatpak run dev.vencord.Vesktop -- --flags CanvasOopRasterization,UseChromeOSDirectVideoDecoder,VaapiIgnoreDriverChecks,PlatformHEVCDecoderSupport,Vulkan,DefaultANGLEVulkan,VulkanFromANGLE
fervent sky
#

horror

#

flatpak run dev.vencord.Vesktop --enable-features=CanvasOopRasterization,UseChromeOSDirectVideoDecoder,VaapiIgnoreDriverChecks,PlatformHEVCDecoderSupport,Vulkan,DefaultANGLEVulkan,VulkanFromANGLE

oblique valley
#

program is above

solar sphinx
#

Still doesnt fix it for me

oblique valley
#

have you restarted vesktop

solar sphinx
#

yes

fervent sky
#

have you actually checked the flags got passed 😀

solar sphinx
fervent sky
#

i hate flatpak I hate flatpak

solar sphinx
#

fr

fervent sky
#

wrap them in --command I think

oblique valley
zenith havenBOT
fervent sky
#

they didnt log so they didnt get passed

#

oh

#

wait

#

no youre right maybe

solar sphinx
#

so what exactly do I have to do?

fervent sky
#

launch with those flags

#

then go to vesktop settings

solar sphinx
#
flatpak run --command=vesktop dev.vencord.Vesktop --enable-features=CanvasOopRasterization,VaapiVideoDecoder,UseChromeOSDirectVideoDecoder,VaapiIgnoreDriverChecks,PlatformHEVCDecoderSupport,Vulkan,DefaultANGLEVulkan,VulkanFromANGLE
#

like this?

fervent sky
#

do the one that opens gpu stats

solar sphinx
#

alrighty

fervent sky
#

should show if vulkan is enabled or not

solar sphinx
#

its disabled

fervent sky
#

oh

#

--use-gl=angle
--use-angle=vulkan

#

need those too

#

do u have the hardware accel switch off

solar sphinx
#
flatpak run dev.vencord.Vesktop --enable-features=CanvasOopRasterization,UseChromeOSDirectVideoDecoder,VaapiIgnoreDriverChecks,PlatformHEVCDecoderSupport,Vulkan,DefaultANGLEVulkan,VulkanFromANGLE --use-gl=angle --use-angle=vulkan
fervent sky
#

in Vesktop settings

solar sphinx
fervent sky
fervent sky
#

yup

#

if that doesnt work the flags aren't getting passed

solar sphinx
fervent sky
solar sphinx
#

yup

#

btw, in case I want to revert all of this, how do I? lol

fervent sky
#

nothings been permanently changed if youre just doing the cli run commands

solar sphinx
#

alrighty

#

this is the current entry for kde btw

#

idk if this is correct?

fervent sky
#

youre missing a %U

solar sphinx
#

Also, sometimes my vesktop opens, but there is actually nothing, like I can't click the actual window

fervent sky
solar sphinx
fervent sky
solar sphinx
fervent sky
#

yea

#

oh do you have gpu access disabled in the flatpak setting?

#

its weird that everything is software accelerated

solar sphinx
#

wait, how do I check again?

fervent sky
#

💀💀💀💀

solar sphinx
#

Im on Fedora KDE

fervent sky
solar sphinx
#

using the standard flatpak settings

fervent sky
#

you've def edited it

solar sphinx
#

I have not no

#

lol

fervent sky
#

gpu switch should be on ....,,

solar sphinx
#

just to show that I have not edited it

#

now I turned it on

fervent sky
#

GUH??

solar sphinx
#

and it shows the little thing, marking it is a user made change

fervent sky
#

uhhh

#

@rich crane does Flatpak not have gpu access by default??

rich crane
#

uh

#

it should

atomic vortexBOT
zenith havenBOT
fervent sky
#

was there a change or something that requires the explicit flag?

fervent sky
solar sphinx
#

alrighty, one sec :)

#

there u go

#

same shit

fervent sky
#

GUHHHH

#

only thing I can think of is your gpu being in the blacklist

solar sphinx
#

Im using an AMD 6800XT

fervent sky
#

but VaapiIgnoreDriverChecks shouldve bypassed that

#

ok maybe the flag didnt get passed

solar sphinx
#

None of the flags seem to be passing through

#

No clue why

fervent sky
#

use google and play around

solar sphinx
#

hmm yeah idk

#
flatpak run --command=vesktop dev.vencord.Vesktop --enable-features=CanvasOopRasterization,UseChromeOSDirectVideoDecoder,VaapiIgnoreDriverChecks,PlatformHEVCDecoderSupport,Vulkan,DefaultANGLEVulkan,VulkanFromANGLE
#

is this correct?

fervent sky
#

i have no idea

solar sphinx
#

nope

#

doesnt seem like it

fervent sky
solar sphinx
#

fucking hell lol

#

I have no clue what to do

#

I might just not fix it at all and just live with it

fervent sky
#

you love flatpaj

solar sphinx
#

lmfao

#

it works most of the time

#

now it doesnt

#

bronze veldt
#

can't find my log files for vekstop on linux, trying to see whats going on with RPC and why it didnt work when i was playing minecraft before i make a request on git

fervent sky
#

just launch Vesktop from the terminal

#

with minecraft its likely the detectable db doesnt contain the exact minecraft path thats getting run

#

with minecraft you should use an RPC mod anyway

# brave badger yo anybody elses vesktop laggy asf

Discord's recent changes seem to have made some CSS very laggy. This includes many themes and part of Vencord itself.

If you are experiencing lag, try disabling all your themes and your QuickCSS. If this fixes it, it means one of those is the culprit. Slowly re-enable one by one until it lags again to find what exactly causes it!

If disabling Themes & CSS doesn't fix it, please go to #1335030867759730790 and run the /vencord-plugins slash command to share your enabled plugins. This will allow us to understand which plugins cause it

[🔗](#1335031334426644561 message) ​ ​Update 1
We just pushed an update that should fix Vencord causing lagging. Themes or QuickCSS could still cause lag, so disable those if affected.

Screensharing is laggy

chrome stag
tulip drum
#

having the same problem with laggy screenshare

#

same problem doesn't happen on firefox, chromium, or discord's official client

#

happens on both x and wayland too

fervent sky
#

did you test the chromium version vesktop's bundled electron uses?

#

also make sure hardware encoding is indeed happening

tulip drum
#

i used the version of chromium from my package manager, 134, because i'm too dumb to figure out how to install old versions of packages

#

it only started happening after i reinstalled so i kinda suspected it might be a weird hardware issue but i'm not really sure how i'd check that

solar sphinx
#

I seem to be having an issue with vesktop sort of opening but me not being able to actually click into it

kindred hearth
#

does anyone know how to put these launch flags into the vesktop flatpak? supposedly they will make it use hevc/h265 which should in theory fix the issue with videos only playing audio. --enable features=CanvasOopRasterization,VaapiVideoDecoder,UseChromeOSDirectVideoDecoder,VaapiIgnoreDriverChecks,PlatformHEVCDecoderSupport,Vulkan,DefaultANGLEVulkan,VulkanFromANGLE I tried to do it with flatseal but it didnt work

quartz kernel
kindred hearth
#

thanks. unfortunately those flags did not help, the videos still dont play. When will this be fixed? Theres a github issue for this from nearly 8 months ago

inner maple
#

ok, this may sound silly... but is there a rich presence sidecar application that exists by chance? like you can give it your discord login info / token and it handles rich presence for you instead of discord/vencord/vesktop?

#

all i can find are custom rich presence applications, which are cool, but i'd like to have the rich presence handled automatically and mimick vanilla behavior

#

i'm using flatpak so it kind of gets in the way in this regard lol

#

https://arrpc.openasar.dev/ oh shit i found this

#

ok false alarm thanks chat

#

oh, this is built in to vesktop! i keep getting "failed to connect to arRPC, is it running?"

kindred hearth
#

yeah i had that issue too. I just installed the arrpc plugin and the server to work around that

grim lake
#

the plugin is only used if you are hosting the server yourself

#

you use this if you dont want to host it

kindred hearth
inner maple
#

oh, i see. well, i can't seem to get it to work with this option on. i also dont even have the registered games tab

kindred hearth
#

even though i believe i gave it all the needed permissions with flatseal

inner maple
#

oh maybe its flatpak perms yeah

Do NOT use any Flatpak-based Discord clients if you're using this bridge, since those clients will attempt to use the same socket paths as this bridge.
