i'm having a strange issue with the user list. in some channels, it's normal. in others, it's pushed out of the window.

#

this occurs both in fullscreen and in not fullscreen

dapper stag
#

well we can't really help you, just stream without audio then

Vesktop just uses electron's capturer api which is based on Chromium's and very limited, we don't have control over it. If audio doesn't work for u, there isn't anything we can do about it

#

and if your laptop is really that old you might wanna consider using Linux instead, it's much faster than Windows

#

There are very user friendly Linux distros like Fedora, PopOs Linux Mint

thank you

#

I doubt that that's a Vesktop issue. Its probably something related to portals and xdg-open not working for whatever reason. Do you use a desktop environment like KDE/GNOME or do you run a window manager like river, i3 or like Hyprland?

#

Hhm, I ran dwl for quite a while although currently I am on river

dapper stag
#

system issue

#

make sure you have xdg-utils installed

topaz canopy
#

Which portals do you run then?

#

I think you should only run the xdg-desktop-portal if you are on Xorg

dapper stag
#

run vesktop from terminal then open a link

#

see the terminal logs

#

electron literally just launches xdg-open

#

do this

topaz canopy
#

Oh then I have no clue, I use musl and appimages don't really work iirc

dapper stag
#

and it works on the discord desktop app?

#

okay and xdg-open in your terminal works fine you said?

#

what does echo $DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS say

dapper stag
#

well there's your problem

#

it needs to be set

#

it should be set by your dbus daemon.

#

Google the variable name and you will find solutions

#

Can anyone help me with the screen share thing?

astral finch
#

I'm using latest Vesktop on Windows 10 and when I click "Go Live", the screen share window just closes

#

If I disable "Stream with audio" it seems to let me screen share

final apex
#

the right side of the window seems to be going offscreen with my custom theme

#

with the members list on i can at least see the entire chat bar

#

with it off it cuts off before it shows all the buttons

#

is there a way to fix this, or do i just have to deal with it for now

plush dome
#

whats vekstop?

topaz canopy
#

I mean it works for me, I run all my proprietary software as Flatpaks as they depend on glibc, I don't like appimages and I don't use 32bit software. So yeah if you don't need that, why not

I was on dwl, aka dwm on wayland, I switched because I could not be bothered to repatch it again after I had to migrate from Alpine to Void, I needed a working machine. And river uses a touch more memory but is a bit more stable in my opinion

#

Wayland is way more "suckless" than Xorg as well if you care about that

quiet frigate
#

vesktop cannot stream my audio and it even creates the working audio pipes however it doesnt stream any audio

#

but discord does that without any issues

#

any ideas?

#

im on gentoo and i did manual packaging and installing

oblique valley
quiet frigate
#

let me try appimage rq from the releases

#

yes

#

as far as ik any of the release builds wont work

topaz canopy
quiet frigate
#

no

#

i use openrc

topaz canopy
#

Do you run elogind?

quiet frigate
#

yes

#

i use xinitrc and have elogind flags enabled

topaz canopy
#

Then it should theretically work, I run Void Linux, before with just seatd, which discord doesn't like, with elogind it should work

quiet frigate
#

its a bit weird but ill keep trying out stuff until it works

#

still ty

topaz canopy
#

Wait do you use a DE?

#

Or like a wm?

quiet frigate
#

KDE Plasma

#

is that why?

topaz canopy
#

No, if you would have run a wm it could have been something with how you start pipewire

quiet frigate
#

ah

topaz canopy
#

Do you have piperwire-pulse installed?

quiet frigate
#

i have the pulse-lib configured

#

yes

topaz canopy
#

Wait do you run just PulseAudio?

quiet frigate
#

uhh

#

hold on

topaz canopy
#

You need Pipewire for it to work as far as I know

quiet frigate
#

there's something called libpulse for pipewire on gentoo

#

its prob running

#

ill check

topaz canopy
#

Your Pipewire should be started through the gentoo-pipewire-launcher

quiet frigate
#

yes

topaz canopy
quiet frigate
topaz canopy
#

Hhm, looks fine to me

quiet frigate
#

ill try something else

#

still ty

#

i could try to use sddm

im emerging vesktop from gentoo overlays maybe that will fix something

Hello I am not sure if this is the rightchannel to ask but I wanted to know if it's fine if let's say I decided to install Vesktop and now have this and Discord with Vencord patch from the installer

Can I uninstall the normal Discord/Vencord or does it still need em to keep Vesktop running?

cold solar
#

uh..so how do i fix this

#

PLEASE ignore the nickname

#

oh my god

#

vencord support not here

#

so sorrys

quiet frigate
cold solar
#

dont worry i just saw, so so sorrys, but im not sure what to disable

#

hi, everytime i try to install vesktop via yay i get this error

#

the reason to why im opting to install via yay over flathub is bc ive noticed the flathub version does not communicate with the notification manager properly

quiet frigate
quiet frigate
#

if yes tell me which one you're using

#

in arch wiki it says you need libnotify

arctic yacht
arctic yacht
quiet frigate
arctic yacht
#

oh are u referring to the notification manager?

quiet frigate
#

yes

arctic yacht
#

let me check one sec

#

dunst i believe

quiet frigate
#

u're on hyprland right?

arctic yacht
quiet frigate
#

nice

arctic yacht
quiet frigate
arctic yacht
#

i should do that

quiet frigate
#

the arch wiki says you should launch it everytime you start your window manager

arctic yacht
quiet frigate
#

u can just run /usr/bin/dunst & disown

arctic yacht
#

really odd im getting this error 👀

quiet frigate
arctic yacht
#

ahh

quiet frigate
#

no need to worry about it

arctic yacht
#

gotchu

quiet frigate
#

does it work when you try notify-send?

arctic yacht
quiet frigate
#

nice

#

also i wouldnt bother trying to clone and use vesktop-git i would just use vesktop-bin or if you really want to lose time compiling it i would suggest you do it yourself using pnpm

arctic yacht
#

the only notifications that dont work are the vesktop one

arctic yacht
#

but ya ill try vesktop-bin

what is discord branch

arctic yacht
quiet frigate

in fact it's better than before (b4 i wiped and reinstalled arch the notifications would work)

quiet frigate

its like ms edge having different branches like stable, canary, beta and development

chrome stag

#

i didnt find an easy solution
what i did was run a loop to readjust the microphone back to its original % level

#

its basically electron being electron

#

good luck

first option (will make all your inputs go full volume)

while your DE/WM ; do
  devices=`pactl list short sources | awk '{print $1}'`
  for i in ${devices}
  do
    pactl set-source-volume $i 100%
  done
  sleep 0.1
done

second option (requires you to identify your source through pactl list short sources)

while (your DE/WM process name) ; do
  pactl set-source-volume (your device here) 100%
  sleep 0.1
done

I'm new to this, and I was wondering how safe and private vencord is? If vencord is compromised can someone just steal everyones login tokens?

timber dragon
#

No

#

Only select people have write access and you are in control of updating vencord

sour ore
#

its as safe as any open source project can be, unless someone gets hacked or goes evil you're good

Hey y'all, I'm on Hyprland and having an issue where when I open the screenshare prompt and select a window the prompt disappears and never comes back even when I try clicking screenshare again.

I have xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland installed and no other DE packages of the same naming convention same for xdg-desktop-portal

I'm using the HyDE dots from the install script on a clean minimal install of CachyOS

I modified one of the dotfiles so that it set some environment variables that I think I need to make sure this works, attaching that here

I'm running Hyprland from UWSM and I have some uwsm configurations in the userprefs.conf where custom settings are applied in the HyDE

exec-once = uwsm app -- systemctl --user enable --now hyprpolkitagent.service

clicking links in vesktop opens up my browser but not the link, and clicking the link again opens another empty browser window but not the link
does anyone know why this is happening?

#

gnome 48!

mighty wave
#

Ah, not familair with that one. I've used it a bit before but mainly KDE and Hyprland, never encountered the issue you're talking about myself.

#

Perhaps it might be something to do with your desktop portal though, I know that handles cross-application communication

opaque ibex
#

hmm im not so sure, because just a few days ago it was working just fine and i dont remember changing anything on my desktop

#

okay nvm i figured it out, it was my mistake haha. the menu entry for my browser was missing a %U at the end

dapper stag
#

lmao

#

why are you manually editing that

mighty wave
#

Oh fuck woops am I not supposed to

dapper stag
#

not you

mighty wave
#

oh

#

Who then?

opaque ibex
# dapper stag why are you manually editing that

its because gnome 48 introduced global shortcuts and every time i opened browser, it popped up the portal for that so i edited the entry to disable them from showing up and accidentally removed the %U at the end

#

lol

#

how... do i ask for help

chrome stag
#

i still dont understand vesktop vs vencord

fervent sky
#

discord is a web app at discord.com/app

vencord is a client mod that injects into that web app

discord desktop is an electron app that loads the discord web app with native features that add functionality to the web app

vesktop is an electron app that loads the discord web app, while reimplementing the native features/enhancing features in an open manner

#

Vesktop needs Vencord to function because it uses the framework Vencord has created for patching the discord web app

hello, I'm a linux user having issues with chromium based applications eating the first scroll input. I noticed that the vesktop client doesn't do this and wanted to ask if this is an intentional fix and if so how it was implemented

#

the discord app and steam are two programs where I've been struggling to fix the "first scroll gets discarded" behaviour that appears to have been a chromium bug for almost ten years. I started encountering it when I disabled the broken support for hi-res scrolling on my mouse

civic oxide
#

is there a way to make vesktop remember where it was between computer restarts?

#

whenever i restart my pc vesktop defaults to the centre of my main monitor

#

where as discord always remembers its position on my 2nd monitor

coral flax
#

is there a fix for this?

fervent sky
fervent sky
fervent sky
grand plank
#

weird, because the flatpak install for vesktop doesn't have this chromium bug that even steam has

dapper stag
#

the only way Vesktop possibly affects scrolling is this switch (which all it does is pass a command line flag to chromium)

#

maybe it's just cause vesktop is latest chromium which has it fixed?

fervent sky
#

its also likely it was fixed recently and Vesktop is just on the newer chromium tag

#

yopp

grand plank
#

is there a way I can get that chromium version to find out?

civic oxide
#

on windows

grand plank
#

I think I found how to try latest chromium, will see if that bug is fixed there

civic oxide
grim lake
#

Doesnt apply to you

grand plank
#

so I guess all I can do is wait and hope other applications update their chromium

dapper stag
#

linux syndrome

dapper stag
#

for most electron apps

grand plank
#

if I can do it for steam and native discord (flatpak) I'd be the happiest person on the planet

dapper stag
#

the Discord binary (and any other electron app exe) is just branded electron

you can replace it with the latest electron binary and it'll work

#

well

#

you have to do more than that

#

all of this is electron binaries and the main binary is branded electron

#

you want to download latest electron zip from github releases, extract it into that folder replacing all files, then replace the branded binary with the Electron binary

dapper stag
grand plank
#

I actually use discord canary and it has the scroll issue that vencord doesn't have

dapper stag
#

oh funny

grand plank
#

this is like a hot off the press fix for a 2016 bug

fervent sky
dapper stag
#

tf is appspot dot com

grand plank
dapper stag
#

oh ic

grand plank
#

ok so I download electron linux 64 version on github and replace the files on programs that have the scrolling bug and hopefully it works without burning down my house?

fervent sky
#

you can simply just run the asar with system electron

#

replacing files is insane

grand plank
#

I'm on nobara which is fedora rather than arch though

dapper stag
#

why not just use vesktop anyway

fervent sky
#

same principle

fervent sky
dapper stag
#

guh u need to do a bit more im pretty sure

fervent sky
grand plank
#

while I'm good with pcs I'm quite new to linux so how would I do that exactly?

fervent sky
#

do what

grand plank
grand plank
#

the thing you were saying, I don't know if I understood fully

fervent sky
#

where is the discord installation you currently have

#

/usr/share/discord or something

#

in the resources folder is an app.asar

#

run the command electron path/to/that/asar in ur terminal to test

#

if it works change the exec line in the discord.desktop file to that command

#

if you want krisp to work youll have to do a bit more

grand plank
#

alright, I'll take a little break because I've been spending all day getting my mouse to work normally in everything but chromium applications in the first place

#

I'll see if I can pull that off or just use vencord and accept the lack of hotkeys for now

#

thanks for the help

Hello, I needed a help with the vesktop app frame. at first it was the default with the windows frame.. so I disabled it thinking it would revert to the custom discord app frame. but now it shows itself like this, without any maximize, minimize etc buttons.

Is there a way to solve this? I want the custom discord app frame so I can use and see the cool-looking circular windows buttons from the midnight theme :P

Here's what I'm talking about

hello, i have been experiencing a bug where sometimes click-dragging (usually by accident, such as when clicking on a server on the left and accidentally 'moving' it) does not end and the entire app becomes unresponsive to mouse inputs as the dragging still appears to be in progress. (keyboard input still works). when this happens i can restore it by using the 'restart' option in the systray menu.

i remember looking around for a solution when i first experienced it and saw some suggestions that it might be an electron bug but there have since been many electron updates that didn't fix it.

is this a known issue? do yall have any suggestions?

i use arch btw

I know there's a plugin for people who wish to hide the "user is typing." I was wondering if there was a way to bypass that as my friend uses it all the time and I can't tell when he's online or offline or sending me something or ghosting me. Is there like a plugin that counteracts this? Also, is there a way I can get vencord for my Android?

Is your portal running properly?

mighty wave
#

Nah lmao it says it's inactive in systemctl

#

Which is why I was hesitant to ask here because like

#

This does not sound like a Vesktop issue

topaz canopy
#

Then activate it

mighty wave
#

I tried to, running hyprland under uwsm

#

And I added a line to my .conf that should start it as a systemctl service

#

But that shit still is saying inactive

topaz canopy
#

What is uwsm?

mighty wave
#

It's a way to run Wayland sessions as a systemd service

#

And start up components of it as systemd units

#

I can run it not under uwsm too by just editing my shell

#

Apparently from the Hyprland wiki it's the recommended method of running Hyprland

#

Particularly it has xdg-autostart support which sounded like what I needed

topaz canopy
#

What is the output of echo $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP and the same for WAYLAND_DISPLAY

mighty wave
#

What with this mf being inactive for no reason

#

Okay one sec

Hhm, then I can't help you. Works like a charm for me, although I don't use systemd

can't tell what side this issue exists on; but I keep having an issue where every time I restart my computer and open vesktop; my discord account gets logged out. 5 days ago when I first installed the app it didnt happen the first couple days; but then a couple days ago It started signing me out making me have to log back in.
Is this something I can fix or do I just have to deal with it

wispy vortex
#

Please can anyone help me about this? also one thing- I'm using this as an imported online theme from github (not as a css code)

Hey i had a quick question, not sure if you guys could answer it.
For some reason the Registered Activities tab disappeared and also I can't join linked games and whatnot because it tells me to download the Discord app. I know those are two seperate issues but I thought maybe they were being caused by the same thing
Not sure if that's being worked on or something...
responses appreciated!!! SayoChibiSpin

Could a plugin be added to emulate things like voicemod but with other servers' soundboard? The reason I ask is because it is convenient to just click it through the menu and not manually copy the sounds and I don't want to have to pay a subscription to have unlimited sounds.

If yes, do you have the aRPC plugin enabled?

worldly lance
#

yes and no

#

The plugin pretty much gives support for rich presence

limpid phoenix
# worldly lance

not sure if this is very helpful, but I got it working by running arRPC for most games, with steam presence for the games not detected.

A script that takes the game you're playing on steam and displays it on discord - JustTemmie/steam-presence

#

linux noob but I got arrpc to autostart via arrpc/src/index.js and making it run on startup

weak sand
sour ore
#

ive had that enabled for a while (kinda assuming that it would also run the server itself too 😭)

oblique valley
limpid phoenix
#

or maybe I didn't really get it

#

I do know arRPC works for most stuff with some games like r.e.p.o detected by steam presence only

sour ore
#

ill test it out hold on

olive iron
#

rpc does indeed work natively with vesktop now. Games are still required to explicitly provide rpc data tho

oblique valley
#

the list is just outdated

#

explains why more processes are detected with external arrpc

olive iron
#

it certainly seems a lot more restrictive on linux tho. My experience has been apps have to put forward the rpc data for the rpc server to see it (it essentially opens up a connection to listen for connection attempts by other apps, no?)
point is, if an app doesnt have rpc support then its likely not to show up at all

dapper stag
# worldly lance

Do not enable the plugin. Just enable the rich presence setting in Vesktop settings

#

and if you're using flatpak, don't

#

both for Vesktop and the apps that you want to display (like steam, vscode, etc)

make electron find it?

O.o

fervent sky

should be a libunity library(.so) in /lib(64)

if electron isnt sandboxxed it should find it

can also run ldd on the electron(or vesktop) binary to see what its loading

only problem is the window picker dialog doesnt go away

Heyo
I installed Vesktop yesterday to return to the old UI, and while using Vesktop my microphone is always muted on launch and I have to manually click on the mic button to unmute, is this a normal behaviour for one reason or another, is there a setting doing this or something? It doesn't happen on reg Discord

#

uhhhh i got an issue with Vesktop

#

my vesktop installation (after putting a theme and enabling window transparency) decided to break

#

like, it can't launch.

#

i'm on a macOS installation rn

#

and when launching i get this

#

oop nvm i deleted thee vesktop folder in Application Support and it works now

#

(and sorry for making a lot of mistakes, this is what happens with a butterfly keyboard)

a lot of the times when i click the server discovery on vesktop it just stays stuck at the "opening discord app" thing

#

anyways any news on when this issue will be fixed on vesktop linux
no idea if it's been fixed already and is just waiting on an update to be pushed or what

#

but i heard this was a vesktop issue specifically

grim lake
#

Turn off the native bar I think

wintry whale
#

you mean reenable the os window border?

#

i already had that enabled but i wanted to disable it on account of this bar existing now and taking up even more space on my screen

grim lake
#

There’s no other fix that I know of

wintry whale
#

damn

#

might take a look at it myself and see if i could do it then ApuThink
i haven't actually checked if this is an overall linux discord issue or not but i know at least on win11 the window decorations get merged with this bar

#

and i can't imagine it'd be that hard to add

fresh socket
#

but as people already said, it might break at any moment if discord decides to move something

#

so it's a temporary fix

red lichen
#

hey, so since i started using vesktop, sometimes my theme will randomly "restart/reload" itself, is there anything known about this?

first time using vesktop because my vencord installer broke, is it supposed to take this long to load?

olive iron
# wintry whale might take a look at it myself and see if i could do it then <:ApuThink:88855465...

Why Discord forgot to add window decorations in their new title bar on Linux is beyond me but it seems like their goal was to merge their own buttons with the OS's native title bar.
Which, on Linux, will never be a thing - apps dont get to control your title bar/window decs. That's handled by your DE.
So, unless discord fixes it, your only real option is to reenable your DE's native window decoration/title bar
As for the extra ugly discord title bar, youll have to use css to edit it to your liking

grim lake
#

It happens on windows too

olive iron
#

Oh, i thought on win they managed to stick the help and inbox in the title bar

topaz canopy
tough sinew
wintry whale
#

just custom buttons rendered in the html that trigger the same os functions

olive iron
#

ok yea, and they just didnt do that for linux for some silly reason

wintry whale
#

thats how it used to work and how it still works but evidently something broke with this titlebar

#

oh huh this IS a general linux issue

#

i just remembered i had a vanilla canary install

#

just checked and yep not there either

red siren
#

this is the channel for the desktop app only right??

olive iron
#

idk if its different on gnome but also discord isnt a gtk app afaik so maybe its the same lol

wintry whale
#

i mean its electron

#

i just need to figure out how and where i'd go about adding those buttons to the ui Hmm

red siren
#

can some one explain to me css what it is what it does

#

Pls

ashen heart
#

so uh I can't really find this issue in known issues or on the github repo but whenever I try to click the direct messages button in the top left my vesktop just hangs forever with the message "Opening Discord App" displayed in the center of the screen with a loading animation, I am on NixOS with Hyprland and I have vesktop installed via the nix package

olive iron
#

css is cascading style sheet its how websites and web apps are styled

wintry whale
#

cuz like i barely use typescript as is, usually sticking to js, and i also have never used electron before

#

so this is gonna be a learning experience for sure

red siren
olive iron
#

appearance mostly, but it can also animate which can appear like functionality but it cant add new features no

wintry whale
#

i guess i can start by checking how vesktop injects its own settings into the settings menu NOTED

olive iron
topaz canopy
red siren
#

like can i change icons ?

olive iron
#

yea

red siren
#

cool

#

do u need program skills to use it

wintry whale
# red siren What stuff can i do with it?

best way to think of it is HTML is the layout of a page, CSS is the all the pretty decorations and animations and colors n stuff, and JS is the functionality of a page

red siren
#

or u can trial and error to learn it?

olive iron
#

to make your own css yes you need to know css but theres lots of premade stuff out there

wintry whale
#

also you don't need traditional programming experience for css in particular

#

it's kind of its own thing with its own rules

#

you can look on w3schools or mozilla's docs for how to use it

red siren
red siren
#

or u just replace files?

wintry whale
#

example css:

.className {
  some-property: "some-value";
}
#

applies styling to that class

red siren
#

oh ok code

olive iron
#

you need to target the class that controls that element, and rewrite that class in your own style sheet, then define the new value

#

if you press shift+ctrl+i in discord, you can inspect its css to find those class names

red siren
#

ok ok

#

i see

#

i tought inspect was a thing only for chrome

olive iron
#

well, discord is electron which basically means its a local app running html/css so it has the same tools

red siren
#

oh so any pp tht is running html has inspect feature?

red lichen
wintry whale
#

hey cooki would you happen to know where vencord/vesktop does stuff like injecting settings/buttons/etc into the discord client

"doesn't work" and similar are not very helpful. To help you, we need more info!

Describe your issue with as much detail as possible.
What exactly did you try to do?
What did you expect to happen?
What happened instead?
Does this issue always happen, or only sometimes?
If possible, provide steps how to reproduce the issue
If appropriate, provide screenshots or screen recordings

For Vencord issues:

  • If you are able to, run the /vencord-debug slash command
  • If not, provide the following info:
    • How are you using Vencord? (Discord Desktop, Browser (name your browser!!), Vencord Desktop, ArmCord, ...)
    • What OS are you using?
  • Open the DevTools with Ctrl + Shift + i (Cmd + Option + i on MacOs) and check the console tab for red error messages

normal discord works fine but it does my whole systems sound and not just one app

topaz canopy
#

Wait do you run the flatpak?

hollow sinew
#

No

#

the AUR version

topaz canopy
#

Try that

#

although if the flatpak doesn't open again after having it open one time you need to do a flatpak override --user --nosocket=wayland dev.vencord.Vesktop assuming you installed it as flatpak install --user dev.vencord.Vesktop which you should always do with flatpaks btw

hollow sinew
#

yeah flatpak worked

#

thank you

hollow sinew
#

quick question where are themes held in the flatpak version? Unfortunately the button to open the folder isn't working

topaz canopy
#

Oh yeah welcome to fun with flatpaks. the hyprland portal is almost the same as the wlroots one aka it doesn't provide a filepicker. To have one you need to have xdg-utils installed, as well as a xdg-desktop-portal implementation, that has a filepicker, for example xdg-desktop-portal-gtk I think was the name. Just install it, reboot your system and it should work

hollow sinew

Thank you so much for your help

Isnt vesktop like web discord

graceful iron
#

vesktop is a wrapper for web discord that has vencord pre-installed

dapper stag
#

that description doesn't really describe it well

#

the Discord Desktop App is also a wrapper for web discord

#

Vesktop is a lighter version of the Discord Desktop app in a way

#

way less of the desktop features and instead only has the necessities (imo)

#

obviously what's a necessity and what isn't depends on what you're looking for, so it's not for everyone
