Holy shit passing --env=XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR --filesystem=$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR makes audio work on completely systemd free distro's for the Vesktop flatpak
@dapper stag

fervent sky
#

how are you expecting flatpak to work as intended without systemd 😭

#

soo insane

topaz canopy
#

Flatpak does not rely on systemd

#

why shouldn't it work?

fervent sky
#

no systemd makes your life 2 billion times harder

topaz canopy
#

Not really that bad, Vesktop is the only thing that has issues with it on my system

fervent sky
#

blame electron

topaz canopy
#

For the GPU crap sure, but I don't know whether electron is the thing responsible for no audio streaming on systemd less systems

THERES NO HW ENC/DEC ON DISCORD DESKTOP LINUX

Vesktop isn’t loading for me
it’s stuck in an infinite loop

#

I just realized discord is actually down
😭

vital oxide
#

yea

limpid coral
#

Sometimes part of discord just freezes and reloading doesn't even work

#

Sometimes it's the entire screen other times it's only a part

#

Disabling hardware acceleration seems to fix it but makes the program slow as all hell

anyone know how to fix when using easyeffects and vesktop screenshare people in call can hear themselves in my stream?

can anyone tell me what is the difference between vencord and vesktop

vesktop is a custom electron wrapper for discord web with vencord built in and a handful of other stuff like better screenshare support on linux

(Linux) Hi, vesktop is no longer opening for me. It opens the launch window and just eternally loads. When I launch from terminal, I get this message, and have gotten this same message when launching with the flatpak, appimage, and aur package. PS I posted this in vencord support but figured I should delete that and post here instead (obviously the appimage bit isnt there when i tried the appimage):

APPIMAGE env is not defined, current application is not an AppImageVesktop v1.5.5checkForUpdatesAndNotify called, downloadPromise is null(node:43820) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: EACCES: permission denied, mkdir '/usr/lib/vencord'at mkdirSync (node:fs:1371:26)at lc (VCDMain:13:829)at async Pl (VCDMain:15:5002)(Use electron --trace-warnings ... to show where the warning was created)(node:43820) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection.

is it possible to use a camera on vesktop with linux? for me it always say no devices found but it works fine with stock discord and discord web

if its the flatpak make sure u didnt explode permissions

nop

#

not flatpak

something is cooked then

how do i fix tho 😭

#

idk troubleshoot your system

ive done everything that comes to my mind lol

except maybe installing a different vesktop package but i really cba to do that rn

rose canyon

why when i go to a game for example, then i get a notification, vesktop just freezes, im using hyprland (you can imagine what os im using)

and yes, i have a notification daemon

fervent sky
#

disable desktop notifications if youre sure you have the notification server setup

#

what're your logs as well

#

any errors from libnotify?

thorny burrow
#

whenever i open vesktop, it keeps overwriting these entries in mimeapps. i cant open any links bc everything keeps trying to open links in vesktop :c

fervent sky
thorny burrow
#

it doesnt seem to

fervent sky
#

i have no idea what's happening there then

thorny burrow
#

rip

#

how would i go about trying to figure out why

fervent sky
#

you can watch that file for changes and see what process is responsible

#

you can use auditctl for this

#

vesktop has no code that sets those schemes so it has to be something else with your desktop

#

do other electron apps have the same behaviour?

thorny burrow
#

nope

#

opening vscode doesnt do anything like this

fervent sky
#

only thing i can think of is there being other vesktop.desktop files on your system

fervent sky

nothing vesktop related there

Hello, i have been having an issue lately in Vencord where when im talking on voice im getting random issues, for example:

  • i am getting my volume lowered by a lot
  • i cant hear other people
  • my mic is cutting me off when im talking

what is curious is that all of these issues go away when i reset sound settings, which by itself is not bad but it happens multiple times per day.....

i am using a flatpak version of vesktop

Has anyone had the issue of not being able to select what window you want to screenshare? It used to work for me, but recently, I can't pick the window. It only lets me screenshare the vesktop client. Any ideas?

prolly, i do have 2 gpus plugged in

i should have an envvar set to like select the right gpu tho

so idk whats causing it

let me get env var

you love chromium exploding with two GPUs on vulkan

fun

lethal burrow

not sure I did this properly, but these are the logs from the terminal when I share my screen. Are there other logs I should be checking?

fervent sky
timber dragon
#

how will that change anything Thonk

fervent sky
#

makes chromium only see one vulkan impl

timber dragon
#

Fine to set that globally or should i set it just for vesktop?

low oasis
#

@fervent sky does vulkan have to be enabled for this to work?

fervent sky
#

i dont remember

low oasis
#

@dapper stag do you have vulkan enabled in your vesktop?

fervent sky
#

vulkan is only needed on amd for proper vaapi

#

nvidia doesnt work at all

#

and vaapi only works fully on wayland

#

sooo

#

YMMV heavily setup specific

still causes freezes Thonk

why is chromium on linux so bad

#

i just want a working system

low oasis
#

i wonder if firefox works

timber dragon
#

i mean i can't even run vesktop in wayland itself i have to run it in xwayland or it doesn't launch (unless i use --disable-gpu) and i can't play videos without freezing with those flags set

low oasis
#

nevermind husk

low oasis
timber dragon
#

its just so over

oblique valley

these flags fix video playback on fedora kde (rpm)

why is a font error crashing firefox

#

@oblique valley @timber dragon plugin coming soon

fervent sky
timber dragon
#

so... what do i do chat

oblique valley
#

let kids believe it works

fervent sky
#

wait is your wm freezing

timber dragon
low oasis
timber dragon
#

I'm doing that because vesktop doesn't launch without it

fervent sky
#

unless ozone wayland is set in a launcher script

timber dragon
#

idk my setup is a bit weird with multiple gpus and i cba to pull one out to see if it fixes it

fervent sky

so cooked

--enable-features=CanvasOopRasterization,UseChromeOSDirectVideoDecoder,VaapiIgnoreDriverChecks,PlatformHEVCDecoderSupport,Vulkan,DefaultANGLEVulkan,VulkanFromANGLE --use-gl=angle --use-angle=vulkan

with wayland

Hi, I'm having issues with Vesktop automatically lowering my microphone volume.

I've checked #1257025907625951423 , and also browsed through the GitHub Issues page of Vesktop. Every issue that talks about this problem seems to have been marked as "duplicate", but I haven't been able to find the original.

There is a workaround posted by someone in issue #1087, but ideally that shouldn't be necessary, as it requires me to run an additional script on boot just for Vesktop that constantly sets my microphone volume to max. Kind of jank.

I'm running Vesktop on Nobara Linux 40 GNOME, the Flatpak version specifically. I've also turned off Automatic Gain Control, and restarted both my system and Vesktop.

Hello, why Game Ativity don't work when i play a game ??
When i launch my game it's not displayed in my game activity, just spotify work, why ?

glacial sierra
#

What system are you running Vesktop on?

worldly lance
#

Windows

glacial sierra
#

I've only used Vesktop on Linux so I can't help with that, sadly. :(

I had similar issues but I fixed em with a custom Discord app that grabs my Steam status.

#

The issue you're facing is probably caused by something else, as my activity issues were caused by the games being run under Proton.

worldly lance
#

Not really, in the normal discord, it's worked

worldly lance
#

And proton it's another deal, since there are not supossed to run on linux, so it can make some problem, when i wased on Arch i haved some problembs with proton

Hello guys, I need some help. My plugins are not loading at all, I think it's because my install is old. However, I don't know how to uninstall vesktop.
OS: Ubuntu noble 24.04 x86_64
Install mode: I have no idea. I have a .deb, an .appimage and a .flatpak on my app list. Right-clicking Vesktop opens the Ubuntu Store for the Flatpak but I have no Vesktop on flatpak list I think it's .deb.

Hey! I once again experience an issue I only managed to fix by completely re-installing Vesktop last time I had it:
Randomy, when starting Vesktop, the start animation shows, but no main window opens after that. The Icon shows up in my Panel, but shows no preview on hovering. clicking on it does nothing - not even select the "phantom"(?) window.

OS: Fedora Workstation 41 (GNOME 47)
Vesktop installed as flatpak

right-clicking the status icon and selecting "repair Vencord" does nothing. If I remember correctly, last time I had this, reset didn't help either, only re-installing the flatpak and wiping all app data.

looking into $HOME/.var/app/dev.vencord.Vesktop/config/vesktop/state.json I get the following values, which seem relevant:

{
    "firstLaunch": false,
    "windowBounds": {
        "x": 0,
        "y": 0,
        "width": 1048,
        "height": 930
    },
    "displayId": 4,
    "maximized": false,
    "minimized": false
}

Especially displayId seems interesting to me, as I only have 2 monitors. Changing this value to 1 However doesn't fix the issue.

EDIT: removing/renaming the state.json file causes the first-time setup to re-appear and after that everything works as expected again.

I'm on NixOS with Vesktop installed from nixpkgs/nixos-unstable using Home Manager.
When I try to play an attached video, it freezes on the first frame, but the audio still plays.
Embedded videos (from links) still work perfectly.
This issue has persisted across multiple updates and restarts, so at this point, I'd bet money that it's not a fluke. HALP

I see there are packages for Nix or another platform not on the website, do you support them?

No. These packages are maintained by people (usually) unrelated to Vencord. We can't provide support for unofficial repackages of Vencord unless it's an actual bug in the mod itself (except when such bugs occur due to the repackage).

Please forward your support enquiries to the people who maintain these packages instead of us.

if you have novideo then there's no fix

you need vaapi

I'm running a fully amd system.

Looks like there's an override to install Vencord on top of the actual Discord client. Maybe I'll give that a try...

south pebble
#

Yeah, I quit out of it using the little icon in the bottom right

dapper stag
#

fwiw it works for me so it's most likely a system issue

#

maybe try using AMDGPU PRO if you're using the free one

but i'm pretty sure I'm using the free one too

zenith nexus
#

it stopped working for me too a day or two ago

topaz canopy
# dapper stag lewi made it initially but I do maintain it too yeah

Apparently the vencord flatpak can not access the XDG_RUNTIME_DIR to make use of existing audio sources. If I manually override the flatpak to set the --env=XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR and --filesystem=$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR manually it is able to detect audio sources, doesn't this sound like an interface not being exposed for the flatpak?

zenith nexus
#

im using the appimage though

dapper stag
dapper stag
zenith nexus
#

minus the flatpak run ofc

dapper stag

and considering it works fine on systemd it means your system is not exposing something that's needed

What is the difference between vencord and vesktop?

south pebble
#

Vesktop is discord prepackaged with vencord and targeted to linux users (there is windows builds)

fickle wraith
#

and macos

rustic meadow
#

I'll probably use vesktop when I upgrade my old laptop from windows 10 to linux, thank you

dapper stag
#

flatpak gives apps their own XDG_RUNTIME_DIR which should be $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/app/dev.vencord.vesktop/[some random name here]

we give the vesktop flatpak access to xdg-run/pipewire-0 which should be $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/pipewire-0

#

@topaz canopy ls $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR

#

whats in there?

dapper stag
#

you need hardware acceleration to play hevc videos

Hello. Realised this might be the proper channel. I've been searching for a while now, just checking with you all here, does arrpc work on arch flatpak Vesktop naturally or do I need to tweak it to show my steam activity?

Hey, I have Discord rich presence turned on in settings but my games don't show up

#

Oh it's only some games. Weird

shadow bison
#

I have the Vesktop/Vencord Flatpak (I don't know which it is, but it's called Vesktop) and I can't drag and drop files into the program even when I enable access to all system files. The interface shows that it knows I'm trying to drag and drop, but the cursor shows 🚫 and it fails to even attempt to upload. The system OS is KDE Neon. This also happened on my Arch system, but the Vencord Installer off the AUR fixed these things.

dapper stag
#

or did it wrong

#

use flatseal

#

or simply dont use flatpak

deep horizon
#

Or use the KDE settings, which can do basically the same thing as flatseal

shadow bison
#

I have done all of that

#

well
lemme restart again to make sure

#

ok it works now. classic tech support moment

night copper
#

(hypothesis because they all use Chromium to render web content)

dapper stag
#

because VLC has a software decoder for hevc, chromium doesn't.

#

chromium needs hardware decoder (vaapi) to decode it

night copper
#

...that's...frustrating. So this laptop is already growing outdated after 3, 4-ish years?

no you simply don't have working hardware decode

eager crater
#

when i enter devtools there's this HTML for the UI, however, i can't find it in the code of Vesktop. Does that mean the HTML gets fetched from Discord's servers or built from the code somehow?
And how can i do something such as adding my own custom elements to Vesktop keeping the stuff above in mind?

wintry snow
#

it's like web discord

eager crater
#

okay but

#

that means its kinda like a browser

wintry snow

no

#

its a web page

eager crater
#

ok so

#

it has an HTML

wintry snow
#

not a browser

wintry snow
#

it just fetches the url

eager crater
#

ok so the HTML does come from Discord's site

#

so like, how does Vesktop even add extra buttons to the settings menus and stuff

#

how does this work then

#

does it like inject extra HTML from the TS code?

#

seems like stuff like that isnt done very many times like at all

#

so my question is

#

how does this actually work then

#

how does it do this

ok so

i had an issue with vesktop not running at first and i solved it with this
sudo chown root /opt/Vesktop/chrome-sandbox

to make the sandbox work

but

im trying to run a seperate vestkop

you can see the /opt/ directory

#

it doesnt work for the other vesktop

dapper stag
#

what other vesktop?

eager crater
#

its using a different sandbox directory that doesnt seem to exist

dapper stag
#

you can use vesktop .deb and flatpak

eager crater
#

basically my main vesktop i installed from a .deb through apt and it works

dapper stag
#

maybe you should try to ctrl f for appimage in that issue

eager crater
#

the other vesktop doesnt

eager crater

so if i cant get it to work

#

i would want to install

somehow

but how do i install two seperate vesktops

don't use appimage

"prevents..., which prevents..."
how to interpret that
does it mean that preventing the first clause stuff also acts to prevent the stuff in the second clause, or does it mean that the stuff in the first clause is what prevents the second clause, and so preventing the first clause negates that

grim lake
#

?

eager crater
#

the sentence is unclear to me, i see two possible interpretations so i cant understand it properly

grim lake
#

Stop discord from hiding your token, which in turn stops random logouts

nimble oar
eager crater
#

ok so i changed something in the source code, ran pnpm package, waited until linux-unpacked got built, then opened up the vesktop executable and...
nothing has changed, it's exactly as if the app hasnt been changed at all

#

does me having the actual official vesktop installed cause issues?
cuz like, i thought since im opening a seperate executable it would be fine
but somehow even my DE recognizes its the same app

#

maybe thats why?

#

or maybe not?

#

idk

yep

If you are guys having crashes every restart but it recovers it and you can normally use Vencord, disable @silk current's plugin called "NewPluginsManager" and crashes will be gone. This was driving me crazy for at least 1-2 months every time i restarted discord

you will report issue in the newpluginsmanager thread

I am just sharing in case someone has similar experience, understandable

@south pebble Youre kind of out of luck for vaapi on nvidia proprietary in chromium, just checked latest info

go harass nvidia support to stop being stupid

I installed libva-nvidia-driver and got valid output from vainfo I tried running with the flags again to no avail

#

ran the same flags on chromium only to see that vulkan was the only thing that changed

#

high key this is a pain in the ass

that doesnt work in chromium

#

either harass nvidia support for vaapi, pay a dev to add vulkan video support to chromium or pay elFarto to add chromium support to that vaapi -> nvdec layer

I think it would be less of a back bending challange to just download any h265 video and watch it with vlc ngl

its not that horrible of a issue

Discord Desktop app: should generally work. if it doesn't, it means you either disabled hardware acceleration (don't) or your gpu doesn't support hevc, in which case you should make sure you have gpu drivers up to date

Web: Switch to a different browser, all big brand browsers should work fine

Vesktop: On Linux you need to pass a bunch of flags, on windows idk. If Linux, just link them these

There really needs to be a better way of handling the case of notifications not working on Linux, I have to perpetually be on do not disturb otherwise any notification freezes discord and I have to restart it.

(vesktop.bin:9681): libnotify-WARNING **: 13:55:59.207: Failed to connect to proxy

(vesktop.bin:9681): libnotify-WARNING **: 13:56:24.234: Failed to connect to proxy

(vesktop.bin:9681): libnotify-WARNING **: 13:56:59.052: Failed to connect to proxy
[9681:0316/135724.079608:ERROR:libnotify_notification.cc(50)] notify_notification_show: domain=1109 code=24 message="Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.Notifications: Timeout was reached"

I found a similar issue for Signal which explains it

I've run into the same problem today - same error message - seems to hang in or near libnotify. Figured out this was because I wasn't running a notification daemon. I don't tend to run one because I don't use a "desktop environment", just a window manager. I agree with @rahra that the software should fail more gracefully, either bundling its own fallback notification system (like Firefox?) or (preferably) reporting an error via the UI that a notification daemon should be installed and running in order to get notifications.

Retracted, unless it’s possible for Vesktop to fix it, because this is a discord issue

You need a notification daemon, the freezing happens on stock discord too and thus is a discord issue

timber dragon
#

just... have a notification daemon

#

this is such a minor issue and not something we are going to fix like.. just have a notification daemon

edgy mulch
#

Still seems a little silly when the fix is basically just a try…catch, but at this point I’d rather pester discord for it to be fixed now that I know it’s a discord issue

dapper stag
#

and it's not a discord issue either

edgy mulch
#

But when someone has 90% of apps work just fine except for the other 10% because they don't bother to handle the edge case of not having working notifications, it's rather annoying

dapper stag
edgy mulch
#

...did you read the other half of that message???

dapper stag
#

Also wrong

#

for the third time stop being overconfident while having no idea what you're talking about

#

it's an issue with electron and not fixable. the fix is to install a notification daemon because without one your system is essentially broken

edgy mulch
#

Great support guys, really, great support, it's almost on par with the ProjectE discord!

dapper stag
#

lol

dapper stag
#

someone should report it to electron

there were already multiple reports in the past but always closed without resolution

onyx mason
#

why i have download app button in vesktop

nimble oar
#

because vesktop uses the discord web build and not the app build so discord thinks its ran in the browser and not in the app

onyx mason
#

can i hide it?

nimble oar
#

with css yeah

onyx mason
#

how?

nimble oar
#

put this into quick css

div[class*="listItem__"]:has([data-list-item-id="guildsnav___app-download-button"]) {
  display: none;
}
onyx mason
#

didnt worked

nimble oar
#

is quickcss enabled

neat escarp
#

this is the one i use

  display: none;
}```
onyx mason
#

because i use font via it

nimble oar
#

try adding !important after the none:

div[class*="listItem__"]:has([data-list-item-id="guildsnav___app-download-button"]) {
  display: none !important;
}
chrome stag
#

what could i do about this?

nimble oar
chrome stag
#

doesnt vesktop automatically run it

nimble oar
#

no

chrome stag
#

are you sure

nimble oar
#

check the plugin description

chrome stag
#

alright

nimble oar
# chrome stag alright

actually - im sorry - check this option in the vesktop settings tab, you only need to run the server manually if this doesnt work for you

#

(i dont use vesktop enough myself to remember that existed)

#

you also dont need the plugin with this iirc

hi uh does anyone know how to disable logging in vesktop?

#

its outputting to same console as another program and makes it hard to track

oblique valley
#

this should be irrelevant if you launch vesktop from a gui

opal elk
#

its weird

#

the stuff above vesktop is another program im debugging

hi i tried vencord on chrome, and i could open settings and use vencord, but when i saved and pressed restart, the discord web reloaded and now i can't open settings again and the extensions/plugins didn't work

since H265/HEVC support is broken would something similar to h264ify (I read the code for it, it doesnt reencode x265 to x264 it simply tells YouTube that its unsupported) work as a work around?

south pebble

The flags work for me while in a dev enviroment, however when passed to flatpak they either don't get passed or don't work.

its not passing the arguments lol

I use this library for Discord Rich Presense: com.github.JnCrMx:discord-game-sdk4j:4dc748f
It works fine on windows, but it breaks on Vesktop. How should I fix this?

screensharing isnt the best on vesktop

#

better to use the normal discord app

how is this more simple then trying to get a new theme ( With lots of help I finally managed to get a theme)

tiny hawk
#

the transparency of my theme broke and i can't find why
i have these as my settings and here is the css of my theme

@import url("./catppuccin-latte.theme.css");

.theme-light {
  --background-primary: rgba(240, 240, 252, 0.3);
  --background-secondary: rgba(236, 251, 255, 0.3);
  --background-tertiary: rgba(197, 197, 252, 0.2);

  --scrollbar-auto-scrollbar-color-thumb: #ffb066;
  --scrollbar-auto-scrollbar-color-track: #e8e4dc;

  ::-webkit-scrollbar{
    width: 7px;
  }

  ::-webkit-scrollbar-track{
      background:#ffffff;
  }

  ::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb{
    background: #88c0d0;
    border-radius: 10px;
  }
}
#

i'm sorry if this is a known issue with an easy fix, i'm kind of a noob when it comes to these kind of tools

#

basically, everything in the theme works as it used to but the background is no longer transparent

Hi! In Vesktop, you can view the stream in a separate window, but is there any way to pin this window on top of all the others?

Im attempting to develop a custom theme, and I'm something odd about my css selectors:

I want to target the list items immediately before and after the selected channel, but my selectors are instead applying the styles to ALL items before and after the selected channel.

ul[aria-label="Channels"] li.selected_12345~li {styles for item after selected}

ul[aria-label="Channels"] li:has(~li.selected_12345) {styles for item before selected}

timber dragon
#

it shouldn't be a restricted channel

I have an issue where the RPC doesn't show what I'm playing. For example, if i run minecraft, it'll not show

another example is steam games like adofai

I'm having a weird issue where the "Loading Vesktop..." screen will appear when I launch the client (as expected), but then will just...not close. The client also will not open by itself. I have click the Vencord icon in my tray to get the client to pop up. I'm aware it's a (mostly) cosmetic issue, but is rather annoying.

i've been using vesktop for like 6 or 7 months now and never knew game detection was supposed to work until a friend had it working on their end (we're both linux users)
is this a common issue? i'm on the aur version, not flatpak

fervent sky
graceful iron
#

do i need arrpc even if it's not a rich presence game?

fervent sky
#

yes arrpc is needed

graceful iron
#

last time i tried arrpc with vesktop it only detected lutris games but nothing via steam

fervent sky
#

native linux games are typically not detected as Discord themselves doesnt include them in the detectable data base

fervent sky
#

process scanning and web client integration

fervent sky
#

weird

#

not entirely sure

#

any abnormal logs?

#

run Vesktop from your terminal

#

and do ctrl+shift+i while focused on the starting vesktop splash

runic sierra
#

I asked for help in the support channel and the issue just magically vanishes

fervent sky
#

likely a fucked up cache

runic sierra
#

I think so

#

running from the terminal it doesn't occur but trying to luanch it from whatever tf i have on my taskbar causes it but only sometimes

fervent sky
#

what's the contents of the .desktop

runic sierra
#

ok the .desktop file is somehow super fucked up

#

I think that's the problem

#

idk how that even happened

alright I wrote a new .desktop file and life is good now πŸ™ thank you for your emotional support even though I am a dumbass

Is it a common issue for the colors on Vesktop to be a little bit wrong on Arch, like a reddish pink icon looks like an overexposed bluish pink and if I screenshot it and paste said screenshot into discord I still see it as the wrong color but on another device the screenshot is the right color, and outside of discord the screenshot is the right color

#

I’m just wondering if it’s happened to other people, if not it’s probably something wrong with my configuration

do you have some funny filters in your css or something
