vencord on safari when
when someone is ready to drop $100/yr and their real name to Apple
On further inspection, this actually doesn't work, Vesktop actually forces the file back to read-write on startup for some reason!
Whenever I try to watch a YouTube embed, I always get the "Sign in to confirm you're not a bot" error
not a vesktop issue. Youtube does this if you use a vpn or similar
ragebait
also whats wrong with dropping their real name to apple what
it most likely already has it since ages
are you using mimeo
Quick question, how come the arRPC plugin no longer shows up (as of a few days ago)? Its still in the vencord repo
vesktop 1.5.8 flatpak
iirc theres an extra step you need to do to get arrpc working with flatpak vesktop
(i dont exactly know what it is, i just remember seeing it, so try and search for it)
yeah there's some permission stuff (from https://github.com/flathub/dev.vencord.Vesktop) but I just couldn't get it working. The plugin did work and i was running arRPC on startup but the standalone plugin seems to have disappeared
i'm not sure how to diagnose the built-in one
and i'm not sure why the plugin is gone because its still on the website and the git repo
oh, I see the plugin was no longer availible for the app but is for the web version, but I'm still confused
still works if you set this line to true in the settings json
cause it's still there, just hidden from display
I did because it confused a lot of people
but it's not an ideal solution
for some reason I don't see the "registered games" section in "activity settings" while using vesktop, it shows up fine in a regular client though
EDIT: did some searching and found my answer, thanks
heartwarming: vencord/vesktop support user finds solution to a problem with their own research ❤️
I believe you mean this package https://xyne.dev/projects/mimeo/ as used by Arch, et al? No, that's not in my repositories at all, I think Mint's equivilant is this one https://github.com/mbeijen/File-MimeInfo , which I do have installed and is providing mimeopen .
Perl module for determining file types using the freedesktop.org shared mime-info database - mbeijen/File-MimeInfo
Or I think Mimeinfo is just the thing that identifies/launches from that database, guess xdg-mime from xdg-utils https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/xdg-utils/ provides the editor for that database, which mimeo also seems to do?
It's a system issue but I'm not sure what exactly is causing it
mimeo is confirmed to cause it but some other people not using it are also suffering from it
https://github.com/Vencord/Vesktop/blob/main/src/main/index.ts#L34C9-L34C35
https://github.com/electron/electron/blob/c7aa0b537d4be8bf5db281bacdf76a26aae1866d/shell/browser/browser_linux.cc#L104-L107

so it's running xdg-settings set default-url-scheme-handler discord vesktop.desktop

@spiral ice
try this for me please:
- remove the text/html entry from mimeapps
- run this command
xdg-settings set default-url-scheme-handler testscheme vesktop.desktop
if it adds the html one back then it's just an issue with your system
It does appear to be a problem with my system. Maybe I should contact xdg-settings...
i'm not sure who is at fault here
what does this output
dpkg -S $(which xdg-settings)
xdg-utils: /usr/bin/xdg-settings
i don't think xdg-utils is at fault, every system uses that
Really weird. It's like requests to register one specific type are also registering the generic one.
Apparently, xdg-mime isn't even supposed to register anything that isn't labelled as supported in an application's .desktop file, and Vesktop certainly doesn't mention this...
MimeType=x-scheme-handler/discord;
is kind of clear as day, that should be all it's eligible to be made default for...
i think we might be able to remove this call though, I will look into it because it's affecting a lot of people
XDG_UTILS_DEBUG_LEVEL=3 xdg-settings set default-url-scheme-handler testscheme vesktop.desktop
can you sharee the output of this?
make_default_kde: No kde runtime detected
make_default_generic vesktop.desktop text/html

Odd. I thought that was near-universal...
see how yours is doing text/html on line 3 then the testscheme later
here's my log, see how there's no text/html

🤔
Oh, one thing I should say, my xdg-utils version is apparently 1.1.3-4.1ubuntu3, maybe that helps narrow it down?
It's possible this bug is already fixed on distros less slow-to-update than Mint.
can you share the full contents of vesktop.desktop please
Name=Vesktop
Exec=/opt/Vesktop/vesktop %U
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Icon=vesktop
StartupWMClass=vesktop
GenericName=Internet Messenger
Categories=Network;
Keywords=discord;vencord;electron;chat;
MimeType=x-scheme-handler/discord;
Comment=Vesktop is a custom Discord desktop app```
Ah, there's my problem. Just Mint things, I suppose. So I'll get it fixed in time. I just found this commit https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xdg/xdg-utils/commit/?id=c27ab1eb76bd2e5ab9fcc9a26f6c67ca8e02db17 which looks related to the same thing.
damn that shit is old
I'm on this
classic ubuntu not updating packages 
can you try this command? it should fix the issue and not set itself as html handler anymore:
XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=X-Generic xdg-settings set default-url-scheme-handler testscheme vesktop.desktop
and then reopen Vesktop to see if it does it agan?
i.e. these steps but with the new command
Looks like that works!
and you're on gnome right?
Cinnamon, but that's gnome-derived IIRC?
oh it might actually only affect cinnamon
I wouldn't be too surprised.
yeah going through the message history everyone affected seems to be on cinnamon
Most cinnamon users (the vast majority?) will be on Mint, which has old versions of stuff. And most (but not all) Mint users will be using Cinnamon, it's the default, so it's not a complete smoking gun.
@stray ivy @livid charm are you on cinnamon DE?
can you share your system info and xdg-settings --version
mint?
no ubuntu

just share neofetch or smth
Seems so.
I'll look into it further and add a temporary workaround or just remove it for now
thanks for helping me debug Matz
Unfortunately, Ubuntu 24.04 seems to use that version, which means derivatives like Mint 22.x also do it
Thank you for being so quick to respond, I'm happy to help out!
okay yeah it all makes sense now
xdg-settings fixed this bug two years ago, but ubuntu still uses such an old version that it doesn't have the fix
okay @spiral ice last time i'm gonna bug you, does this command have the bug too?
xdg-mime default vesktop.desktop x-scheme-handler/testscheme
if no I'm just gonna switch to that
Oh, sorry, I was AFK. Checking now!
This appears to register x-scheme-handler/testscheme=vesktop.desktop but nothing else, so this one seems good!
will be fixed in next version https://github.com/Vencord/Vesktop/commit/0d9ca2270ce7a39566bd45b9315e72497c081527 (or install from source if you care a lot)
Boring default Ubuntu right now 
Ik share my sys info when i get home
Oh, nice!
Yesterday everything was fine, but today it takes a very long time to load, until the main window opens. As a result, from 4 or 5 times, after an excessively long wait, Vesktop opened. What's wrong?

not seeing this mentioned in known issues and it may something very niche. but when i stream on vesktop it always says the resolution is "source" and its 30fps no matter which options i choose. (sorry in adv if this is a stupid question)
known bug iirc
people who watch the stream will still get the quality you picked, its displayed incorrectly on your end
i see thank you for explaining :D
currently using vencord with no problem. i pretty much use it for chatting, voice chat, nothing much.
so my question is, does vesktop stable to day to day use? if its good for normal day to day use, i'll like to give it a try.
yes
Is there any way to make vesktop show up as the 'desktop' version of discord, so I can earn 'play X game' quests?
I already have ARRPC set up, but even when playing the requested game 'shows up s steam activity' it does not seem to count?
You cant
yo
how do i install custom pluggins
like i downloaded them
oh vesktop only?
where for vencord browser

when I try to stream using video hardware acceleration people only get a infinite loading and an error
did you mean to attach a screenshot or
you have a theme enabled
and?
disable it
oh
open the dev tools with CTRL + Shift + i (Cmd + Option + i on MacOs) and click on the "console" tab at the top. Then paste and run (with enter) the following code.
It will
- disable custom css (you can turn it back on in Vencord Settings)
- copy your current theme links to your clipboard as a backup
- remove all themes
(() => {
Vencord.Settings.useQuickCss = false
try {
const copy = window.copy ?? Vencord.Webpack.Common.Clipboard.copy
copy(Vencord.Settings.themeLinks.join("\n"))
} catch { }
Vencord.Settings.themeLinks = []
Vencord.Settings.enabledThemes = []
})()
Did you run the snippet
yes
Share your vesktop settings
how

Is there any kind of documentation I can read to get hardware accelerated encoding to work for screensharing? Ive been looking around and cant seem to find anything up to date. Im using a 7900xtx with mesa on nobara 42 basically fresh install with the both flatpak and rpm versions of vesktop
when I try to stream using video hardware acceleration people only get a infinite loading and an error
is Game activity supported on windows
it does show the game you're playing on profile, but it doesn't support overlay, and doesn't save it to recent activity
ah. im playing starbound rn and its not showing on my profile
man why the icon ugly it doesnt have black lines on my other device
papirus dark on both
I seen some reports of Windows Screensharing on Vesktop being kinda....
But is it normal to be like, entirely broken at all? 👀
Trying to screenshare just about anything throws NotReadableError: Could not start audio/video source for me. Retried as Admin assuming permission errors but that wasn't it either.
It seems relatively unimpressed of me toggling Hardware Acceleration as well.
Hi quick question is Automatic Voice Sensitivity not an option on Vesktop? Seems to be completely missing

The server language is English. If your English is very poor, you may ask questions in other languages in the support channels. Otherwise, stick to English in all other areas.
Hi Team
I tried looking for answers online first, but can anyone tell me where plugins are stored in windows?
the goal it to write a custom one
I should be fine to do the development once I know how to load + test my own
🙏 thank you I'll give it a read
thanks, got it installed via src and a basic app going 🙏
Yeah that is correct, there are 3 modes u can pick with 2 modes not having the sensitivity slider so i assume they do use some sort of automatic detection, but the custom mode requires you to set the slider
does vesktop support a "wayland-mode", where it can render without xwayland? if yes, is that enabled by default? if it's not enabled by default, how to enable it?
I specifically mean rendering the electron ui with wayland, not screensharing (that works fine)
please replying / mention upon answer. thanks.
Does anyone know how to get rich presence to work with vesktop?
--ozone-platform-hint=auto
- don't use flatpak
- it should just work

great, thanks.
Im having a issue where vencord isnt appearing on my discord anymore
I just have regular normal discord I dont see my settings for vencord
wait nvm I think I fixed it

Hi, I'm having some issues with vesktop. I was messing with it and now it won't get past the loading window whenever I launch it. I've tried reinstalling it multiple times. I'm on Linux.
I've been using the vesktop-bin package from the AUR for a while and it's mostly great. Today I was troubleshooting an unrelated bug, and I ended up installing the vencord-bin package from the AUR and changing the Vencord Location within Vesktop to /usr/bin/vencord/. After restarting my Vesktop client, it won't get past the loading screen. I've tried reinstalling Vesktop and uninstalling Vencord and nothing works. Any help would be appreciated.
delete settings.json from ~/.config/vesktop
That worked great, thank you
is there a way to use vesktop through the discord app instead of desktop? for things like overlay and keybinds
I'm on EndeavourOS (arch w/ KDE plasma) and I'm having issues updating. Regular update method isn't working, and invoking the update commands via console isn't working either.
vencord
How do i change the icon to be like what its reporting in flatseal? never seen these fat black outlines before on papirus
im on arch, i thought it didnt work
does a plugin exist that automatically joins a full vc channel when theres space
use a different icon pack
this isn’t a vesktop issue
no
just that on my laptop it doesnt look like that and theyre both using papirus
idk maybe one icon package is newer than the other, thx anyway
run locate vesktop.png and you should find the papirus files
just delete them or smth
how do I open vesktop on hyprland
1 .```bash
notify-send "Test Notification" "This is a test message."
[1]+ Exit 127 notify-osd
notify-send works
2. yes
it does send notification when enable dekstop notification but i dont get any notifiaction from messages
.
when was arpc removed?
Wrong place
ok
Whats that
kernel
Uh
Does this fix hw encoding for screenshares or is that still just broken on discord?
try it and see
thx bub
Its still broken for me. Is there any kind of documentation to get hw encoding to work in vesktop or is it just broken at the moment?
im on the latest mesa driver through cachyos
Any way i can change the tray icon? I want it to match my other icons if im able too
not yet
so is arrpc just gone?
still exists, just the plugin to manually host it yourself is gone since people were confused
can still toggle it in vesktop settings
its weird that its not picking up games then
yeah arrpc is just like that
anything I can do to make it pick up games again?
is there a way to keybind code snippets in the same way u can use ctrl+b to put **asterisks** around text?
it really isn't
which games and how did you install vesktop
every game and I installed via aur
which games
I've tried Omori, cyberpunk, Alien isolation, Inscryption, dialtown, and most recently roblox (using sober which configures for rpc)
none have worked

(Auto-response invoked by @grim lake)
when streaming on vesktop, other users will hear echo of their voice from the stream, even if I'm only streaming the window and not screen. sometimes i also hear a single snippet of doubled PC audio from other windows while streaming. thus far I deal with it by disabling stream audio, or switching to vencord just to stream audio, but it would be cool if there were some fix to this.
I have Krisp and echo cancellation on, I'm using "custom" input profile and voice activity input mode
thats just how windows vesktop is, deal with it
I use Linux mint and on Vesktop, it doesn't detect when im playing games, and it says im using the web version of discord

Mods, answer me bc I'm cooler
@dapper stag I wonder when it will be added.
Vesktop freezes/crashes for me when initiating screensharing while my webcam is also being shared. I can work around it by turning off the webcam share, but it's very annoying when I forget (which is often). I'm on Arch/KDE/Wayland.

Hello - I currently use Discord in 3 different apps at once (so I run Canary, Stable and PTB). I always have likely because I'm weird.
Could I run vesktop on the same 3 branches at once? I couldn't see anything when browsing through it.
vendesktop is a seporate app
you would want to inject vencord into those instances
Yah I figured, thanks. Was just wondering if I could run 3 separate instances of vesktop
don’t use flatpak
no
I understand it now
tldr; in a terminal, run ln -sf /run/user/1000/.flatpak/dev.vencord.Vesktop/xdg-run/discord-ipc-0 /run/user/1000/discord-ipc-0
Hi, I use Arch Linux as my distribution, and when I'm on a call and want to share my screen, I can't because the desktop doesn't let me.
sos
hi 🙂 does the flatpak generate logs anywhere?

I am once again asking for help with my broken vesktop updater
random question but is there a way to fix this being highlighted at the top while having transparency mode enabled

Is there any workaround to get desktop notifications to work on the appimage version of Vesktop? I had to switch from flatpak to appimage because I'm on bazzite (KDE Plasma) and flatpak does not support arRPC but appimage does. I'm pretty sure desktop notifs worked on flatpak but not on appimage
they should just work
make sure they're actually enabled in discord notification settings
yep enabled in options but not showing unfortunately
also the strange thing is that in the notif light bulb icon in the bottom right they do show up there, but they are not actually popping up on-screen
Hi, I have this weird issue where if I use hardware video decoding I can't stream. I can watch videos and streams and I checked that it uses my gpu using amdgpu_top. When I try to stream there is a longer delay before it starts and if I check debug screen there is no outbound video. After closing stream vesktop freezes and I have to restart.
If the only flag used is AcceleratedVideoEncoder the stream works and amdgpu_top shows that it's using gpu. Obviously watching videos and streams is not accelerated this way.
I tried using vulkan flags (VaapiVideoDecoder,VaapiIgnoreDriverChecks,Vulkan,DefaultANGLEVulkan,VulkanFromANGLE,AcceleratedVideoEncoder), vesktop 1.5.7, other vesktop fork and flatpak version instead of aur but the issue is identical everywhere. I also use --ozone-platform=wayland, using x11 doesn't fix the issue.
Can’t for vesktop
I guess it could be fixed by disabling my stream preview for myself but I don't know if there is any way to do that.
there are some issues with webrtc when I try to start streaming with hw video enabled

does vesktop increase the streaming quality just on linux or on Windows as well? asking this because me and my friends tried watching a movie together but the streaming bitrate was pretty low (even streaming on 1080p with vencord+fakenitro)

why is my touchpad scroll speed so damn high on vesktop compard to normal discord? ctrl shift i seems to fix it somehow but that's only a bandaid fix
Is there a way to disable Vesktop forcing your mic as Muted on startup? It removes itself when I join a voice channel but the icon was never auto-muted on the vanilla client.
just ignore it
I don't know if it's the profile theme but every time I change the banner keep it just keeps defaulting to blue

Im pretty sure this is a simple question but is there a way to change the icon for the applicaiton that appears in the taskbar? My brain keeps looking for the discord icon for a good couple seconds before I go "oh right" and click on the VC icon
I use arch btw, got vesktop through the AUR if that is at all important
I checked the github repo and why the hell is this a thing that is argued about a ton. For a more open client it should be simple for a user to customise anything to a certain degree.
It’ll be added in the future

Trying to figure out streaming on Hyprland,,,
It works on other things like OBS, but Vesktop in particular has issues
It'll bring up the little "select your ouput" thing (in a lil pop up tab, not a discord thing), it'll take a selection, but then just. nothing happens. no stream popup, no preview, no stream start noise or "live" notification or anything, just nothin'.
I can't press it again to re-select something as if it's still kinda Going (until i force kill and restart it) and pipewire lists it as "streaming" in wpctl status pipewire, so it seems like just an issue with Vesktop itself sorta finalizing it and getting it through
changing app icon isn't really something an app can do without terrible hacks
you can just do it yourself
just create or edit .desktop file yourself
on kde? even better you can just right click and edit with GUI

why is my touchpad scroll speed so damn high on vesktop compard to normal discord? ctrl shift i seems to fix it somehow but it reverts back after like 10 min
I got vencord to work on web but it still doesnt work on desktop here are the files in the discord folder

if anyone has any ideas plz ping!

I'm getting the same issue on windows 11
i think its the new discord update maybe
sorry, my privacy settings for this server get reset every time @oblique valley bans me as a joke
blame him
Np
SpotifyControls look kinda funky
mostly just the progress bar
oh actually I think my themem is outdated or something
Im using Material Discord rn
you sure you're not on dnd?
nope, I was on idle the entire time
what the hell is wrong with this thing 😭
at this point regular discord seems the lesser of the 2 evils
vesktop seems to have had a falloff
You issue, never had this before
at that time i hadnt even had any css active
sup im using vesktop on fedora 42 wayland gnome and i came to realise its just the browser discord, is there a way to get the actual desktop discord for auto game activity n stuff
actually nevermind no way 2 do that ill just switch to flatpak with vencord 
open the Software app
make sure these are off in settings
search Discord
there should be two results
look for the rpmfusion one
or use this https://github.com/diced/dvm
the flatpak one wont have game activity
also vesktop has game activity too
but dont use the flatpak
noo dw i fixed it
i installed regular discord flatpak then vencord
sh -c "$(curl -sS https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Vendicated/VencordInstaller/main/install.sh)"
sure but it won't have game activity just so you know
Having this weird thing where the icon in my taskbar is showing the icon like it's playing media, despite nothing playing?
arch linux, latest plasma, couldn't find anything skmming around issues or in here
nope no rpm discord in sight
outdated git, rustup wont build it
what does this mean
builds fine for me
it just wont
it returns an error
ok i have an idea why
yeahh it just wont install
i reinstalled rustup and nightly but i js cant build it @dapper stag
just run cargo install
something smells broken on my vencor...
is it just a new discord update
snif broken....
@atomic vortex how do i download vencord
what
I did that but it gave me something
go to #🏥-vencord-support-🏥 and post it there

vesktop is really laggy for me since updating to tahoe
this might be related to it: https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/48311
yeah electron kinda fucked on tahoe right now
yeah
i should probably wipe and reinstall 😭
i don't have a backup, that's pretty dumb on my side
for thinking it's stable 😭
iirc its because electron uses a private API
yeah
there's so many electron apps, and im scared how long itll take for all of them to update
vesktop will probably update eventually but if you're on vanilla discord you're even more fucked
they never update electron versions like ever
i have electron allowed as an insecure package so that i can install it because the discord electron version is so old that it's deprecated
huh'
If I install Vesktop, I won't need to reinstall/repair Vencord to my Discord every time Discord updates?
yup
So does anyone else have an issue where Vesktop doesn't stream above 720p, 30 FPS on Linux?
it does stream in whatever quality you pick, the resolution it tells you youre streaming at is just bugged on your end
Ah, alright. Well, another thing related to that, sometimes, my streams appear to be randomly "crunchy" for other people? I don't know if it's like the bitrate self-destructing or something, but it happens pretty frequently and it's like a gamble as to whether it'll stream properly
that i cannot answer. discord just be like that sometimes
where is the plugins folder located? in https://docs.vencord.dev/plugins/ it says src/userplugins however I installed vesktop using rpm on fedora and the path isn't very clear
is this meant to be in /opt/Vesktop ?
it would be nice if there was more broad documentation for plugin development too
We only provide support for official Vencord builds downloaded from https://vencord.dev. Do not ask for help with unofficial versions (e.g. Equicord) or user plugins. Also do not ask us for help with getting any of these unofficial versions.
Read docs properly they cover everything
at the very top of the page you linked
ah god my bad I missed the 'development vencord install' part
thanks
why not
hi
put simply, do you need support or not
check dm pls
be patient
ok
I installed vesktop and arRPC but it does not work
I have it enabled in vencord settings but it does not work at all even for things like spotify
I'm on Arch Linux
Is there any way to troubleshoot it to get it working
Spotify doesn't use rpc
But it doesn't work for anything else either
I have acitivity privacy set to enabled
And discord thinks it's the web client too which is odd
because vesktop is a web wrapper
is your spotify in offline mode or private session
No but it is a flatpak
this should be irrelevant, spotify presence doesn’t use rpc
did you link spotify
user settings -> connections
Oh no I didn't
Must've missed that
not spotify related but I'm also trying to get last fm RPC plugin to work too and it won't work even with the API key
Nevermind
Hello, can I make something like on windows with the system tray icon? I mean there wil be a dot when there is unreaded messages or a ping?
Hey when i try to claim discord missions that consist into playing some games, it saying that i need to switch to "desktop version"
thats because vesktop is technically the web version of discord
so i have to switch to normal one for claim that, okay
Do not ping other users for support (including replying with a ping to unrelated support messages). Do not send direct messages or friend requests for help.
Technically yes, we have a very barebones app for android: VendroidHowever, it suffers from many issues and thus is not recommended for daily use (nor is it actively being worked on)
Instead, we recommend the following alternatives:
- Pyoncord (discord server) ~ supports both android & ios. uses the latest discord mobile app
- Aliucord (discord server) ~ android only. uses the old (now ~2 years old) version of the discord android app

how do i zoom in / zoom out? vesktop doesn't seem to have zoom level in appearance settings, also tried ctrl +-
ctrl + - is for zooming
if it doesn't work it means you're probably pressing the wrong keys

can someone please explain how the fuck this is happening
is this another shitty ui update ?
discord broke something with themes, if you toggle this off for some reason it fixes it
where can i find this ?
look at the top
guys small question, where does vesktop read to get the used keymapping when running on linux ?
hai how do i disable the little anime character on boot up would i be able to do that with a theme? do they load before discord is fully open?
Hello, i am having this wierd issue with vesktop where if i try to screenshare audio it just wont screenshare. no error. I am on windows 10 22H2
you can hide the splashscreen in Vesktop Settings
windows screenshare is suboptimal on vesktop
ah so im guessing its just broken on windows will there be a fix soon or nah?
Hey is there any way I can install vencord on mobile?
for some reason when it starts theres random chance for the theme to not load at all
Oh ok I read the know issues one
How do I download the links?

I'm so dumd
I'm just sleep
is there a way to get rid of this border in the startup thing?
turn off the loading splash in vesktop settings

don't think i have that
i think its in the toolbox idk i dont use vesktop
what the heck is the toolbox
i hate everything im ending at all
the vencord icon in the top right corner
is there a way to stop discord from making me scroll dwon whenever i send a msg
um
where does that show up
i dont think i have that

is there any way to install JS tweaks on vesktop? wanted to try this, looked pretty cool https://betterdiscord.app/plugin/BetterAnimations
You can't.
Chances are, it's already a Vencord plugin! Or if it isn't, you can open a plugin request
oh interesting, any way to make ur own plugins/JS?
is there a way to make it start minimized? I don't want it to keep flashing on my screen everytime I reboot, or is that not a thing in vesktop? (linux)
how can i hide my stream preview ?
a weird bug is happening where sometimes only a very small part of the app is getting rendered new frames while the rest is static. It gets fixed whenever I hide and fetch the window back. Anyone got a fix or smth for this? (note: the issue seems to happen only when the window is maximized)
Guys, I've been in this same problem for 20 minutes already, I've done what you said about 7 times.

i don't understand what vesktop even is,is it like some new client that uses dc's api to work or what
voice being choppy for no reason, cant fix it
found solution, theres a typhoon happening (video deleted for privacy)
i'm not sure if it's a problem with vesktop or vencord (tbh i don't know the difference)
but when i get a ping, the entire software freezes for like 5 minutes or i have to close it with system monitor and re-open it. i tried removing and reinstalling vesktop but it's the same problem.
if anyone knows a fix for this on linux please let me know, #1257025907625951423 didn't show any results for me

no_proxy="localhost, 127.0.0.1, .myproxy.local"
NO_PROXY="localhost, 127.0.0.1, .myproxy.local"
I have no information on the settings of the proxy itself beyond the fact it cuts out advertising and very few select sites like dropbox and google docs. The regular Discord app works fine. My first guess is that the proxy cuts out some traffic needed during the launch process, but I don't know how to test this.
PS. Please ping me when replying

hello! what's the recommended way to install vesktop on arch today? I saw there's some drama going on with the AUR packages, that's why I'm asking. thanks
On Vesktop right now and it's not letting me turn on stream audio :(
It's not letting me enable stream audio. The option just doesn't even show up. I'm unsure how to fix this. In the regular discord app on my macbook, I can see the option. But, on here (vesktop), it doesn't show and automatically disables stream audio. If I could be pinged if / when anyone answers, that'd be greatly appreciated.
vesktop-bin
or vesktop-git if you want to build from source
these are the two packages we support
thanks

i have auto updates on vesktop turned off. every time i launch vesktop i get an UAC prompt telling me to give vesktop-setup-1.5.3 or something to permission to install. how do i disable that
vesktop has no way to disable auto updates at the moment
you should just update
using outdated vesktop is not supported
but its on latest
I have a.....maybe stupid question
when I looked up vesktop to help a friend install it I found vesktop.org but uh....is that the official domain or a scam?
Its best to get it from the github
yer
I usually either get it from there or from https://vesktop.vencord.dev/ but uh
I have no idea what's going on with the other domain
and got curious

I don’t know

how much ram is vesktop supposed to use on average?
there is no definitive answer, it varies from user to user
but from my experience using vesktop it was consuming about 550-700 mb (depending on what channel i had open) while the regular patched desktop app uses 800-900
-# unrelated to your question but woaghh.. hello
...
hello fello glace, im clippeon. anyways i asked cuz on average, my vesktop is using about 1.4-1.5 gigabytes of ram
is it 1.5 gb constantly or does it change when you switch channels
you might want to check any css/themes youre using and also try and get a comparison to the desktop app if possible
hmm well ig now its using only 500mb... odd. perhaps it just needed a restart
Vesktop still doesn't let me share stream audio. Don't know what to do.
i downloaded a plugin how do i set it up?

vesktop wont let me screenshare at all, the button shows up and it lets me choose a window to screenshare, but nothing shows up. disabling audio makes it work perfectly fine though
using windows 11, vesktop version 1.5.8
All of my screen shares are borderline unwatchable - either terrible framerate or terrible bitrate. Hardware acceleration changes nothing. Is there anything I can do to make it better? I have a 5700X and an RX 6650 XT, I don't think either should be struggling this bad.

Hello everyone. My friends are saying that part of my Steam UI and also Youtube videos turn black/blurry while the rest of the UI remains clear. I believe this is due to DRM Protection, so I'd love a work-around, if possible!
how that's related to vesktop?
I'm kind of stupid, sorry. I thought vesktop was the channel for windows vencord
sorry if i'm being dumb, but is it normal for the vesktop app to be detected as browser?
yes
any way to fix it?

yeah i think ill just switch to doing that

has anyone else encountered this issue? I'm now using the browser version of discord.
nothing to do with vesktop, your driver or gpu are broken
you can run vesktop with --disable-gpu to not use the gpu
do what it says, maybe there's useful info there
is vesktop technically a browser version?
do i need to download discord app too for quests and stuff?
for the ones that require you to play something yes
oh
so that's why it fails to detect many games
should i just install discord and vencord on top of that?
if you want the better game detection yes
ohk ty
You need the official Discord app for that

it js doesnt work at all not even a tab called vesltop settings
Open discords settings and scroll all the way down to the bottom and screenshot the following text block

is it normal that the rpc timer stuck when see someone profile?
like it stuck right there
is vesktop tho
and shows the loading symbol
ive reinstalled it twice
not worked
ah macos
hope it isnt an issue
well ive completely exhausted my knowledge
its not my erm... prefered system
wait for one of the macos wizards to come help you
lmao

i wish i could use arch but im js gonna stick with apple i dont wanna mess up the laptop
Can anyone tell me how to fix the streaming quality being so bad when i try to stream to someone. It's like 1 fps.
Are you using the dmg or zip
uhh dmg
i think i was
could it be an issuei have 2 accounts? and i use it on different accounts
Try getting the app from the zip instead of the dmg
okay
ok will install that rn
maybe im blind but i cant find the setting to enable activity (rich presence) when i play a game, I enabled rpc in the vesktop settings but it doesnt seem to be working, and i cannot find the activities thing anywhere (with the programs/games)
enabling rpc is all you need
you also cant manually add programs on vesktop for the activity
huh weird doesn't seem to be working, any common problems?
Windows btw
oh well, too bad too sad i guess, thanks for helping
hey y'all, i was trying to figure out why setting my file manager to thunar was being ignored across both firefox and vesktop, and it seems like force removing nautilus fixed it over on firefox.
for some reason vesktop isn't seeing thunar though, im pretty sure it's still defaulting to gnome portals for it. so now it's only here that it's still broken.
using niri if that matters
so i have a weird issue where i cant select audio sources when sharing my screen because the pop up behind the rest of the interface instead of infront so i cant click on them is this know? can i fix it myself?
Hi y'all, I wrote up a detailed breakdown of the issue I'm having with updating in Vesktop but Discord ate it for some reason?
I've been having issues lately with updating the Flatpak version of Vesktop. I attempted to reinstall with the .deb package (currently on LMDE6) and it fails to get past the initial loading screen
Tried to post the console logs but the automod doesn't like it, it thinks I'm trying to build the app from source (I'm not)
is there a way to make vesktop autoscroll like on firefox discord
it's failing to fetch github, see the thread in #1257025907625951423
also don't run vesktop with mangohud
Thanks, I had checked it before but it turns out my DNS server was having issues that I was only seeing while trying to install Vesktop. Switching from my local DNS server to Cloudflare fixed it
agreed
why do you need a slider just press ctrl +
I'm having some trouble with vesktop on cachyos with a pipewire patchboard. Here's my patchboard setup, and the problem is that vesktop doesn't get input no matter what I mess with in audio settings. Any ideas?
vesktop(windows) sometimes refuses to start unless I delete temporary files
on windows clicking notifications un-fullscreens the app, is this a windows thing or vesktop thing
is there anyway to do transparent themes on wayland? not really support but i’m just wondering if it supports transparency in themes.
transparency is supported by the option in vencord settings
Blame the uk

RPC is not working for me altought arRPC is enabled in the settings
when running /vencord-debug it's showing me that NoRPC is enabled, even though the plugin got removed iirc, could that be the problem? if yes, is there any way to fix that?

Hello, when I'm running to download Vencord, it closes.

no that doesn't matter
the plugin is gone
vencord debug just doesnt know that
are you using flatpak?
yes, i am
thanks, guess i'll switch to the appimage instead
i forgot, how do i create plugins
#🧩-plugin-development is probably your best bet to learn how
Hi, just wondering if anyone knows how to fix a strange issue I have
I'm running Bazzite 42, using Vesktop via flatpak
So, when I search somethin in the Application Menu (Kicker) and then drag it from there to Vesktop, it shows the "drop file to upload" overlay, but my mouse is changed to a 🚫 and I can't actually drop the file, it just doesn't upload
This doesn't occur when dragging the same file from Dolphin File Manager, or from the Application Launcher (Kickoff), or KRunner, and also doesn't occur on other apps such as Telegram, which will happily accept drag-and-drop from anything.
I checked in Flatseal and don't see any file permission issues, Vesktop has access to everything that Telegram does, and more, so it's not a file permission issue (and that wouldn't make sense anyway since again, I can drag and drop stuff from Dolphin, Kickoff, and KRunner just fine, just not Kicker)
whats this mean? ive been trying to update vencord forever. my plugins and themes tabs have been crashing and the app also crashes when i tried to screenshare the other day. i reinstalled vesktop. same problem and i get this message in my devtools.
i got the popup when i tried to go to my plugins tab saying
Would you like to update and restart now
vesktop did not restart, then another popup
That also failed, try updating with the installer
i have tried literally everything.

can vesktop (on linux) work with discord reactive? it usually needs the desktop app, which vesktop is not
edit: i searched through the server and found no conclusive answer, so then i searched github and found this info, which gives me the impression that support is doable but low-priority
in conclusion, it seems that support for various overlays like overlayed, discover, and also reactive, is hinging on OpenAsar/arrpc#18
Vendicated
on Aug 16, 2024not easily possible. use discord desktop app if you need this
asahilina
opened on Dec 10, 2023[...] but I have no idea whether it's even possible for arRPC/ArmCord [...]
CanadaHonk
on Jan 20, 2024[...] While the bridge does currently exist, it is only used for sending RPC statuses to a web mod currently and nothing complex. [...]
edit again: i found the definitive answer i wanted
Vendicated
on Feb 19, 2024we rely on arrpc for RPC. See the arrpc issue for tracking this OpenAsar/arrpc#18
if arrpc implements it, vesktop will also get it. until then, i recommend you use stock discord instead of vesktop if you need these features
i'm now following all these issues in case of an update, but in the meantime this might be suitable for a #1257025907625951423 entry -- i've done my best to compile the information here
Grant the vesktop flatpak access to all your files if you want drag and drop to work
hi! since updating to macos 26 i have this kinda annoying detail, newer apps have a bit more curved corners than "older" ones like vesktop. is there something i can do bout it?
I can't find the "WebRichPresence (arRPC)" plugin anymore, is that normal?
It is still definitely activated though, I have the "Failed to connect to arRPC, is it running? Retry" banner.
hello guys! installed this as my main discord client when switching to linux, and its working wonderfully.
one question though, as one thing i really miss from windows is the fact that you can click in your scroll wheel to open that floating mouse thing and scroll using that. my 4am binge through various forums and the arch wiki landed me on the conclusion that with electron apps (such as discord) you can give them a launch flag which enables this functionality. is there a way to accomplish this, or maybe im looking in the wrong place?
my DE is xfce, im running on x11 and endeavouros is my distro of choice.
@dapper stag dm please
be patient
it does work, aside from in that one specific circumstance. hence my post.
How much he takes to do it ?
ok thank you
guys, how to debug audio crackling issues?

Question, does arRPC have functionality for toggling mute/deafen on Vesktop?
Are you on linux?
no
Is this something that could be feasibly added to it's functionality? I've been trying to find a solution for using my Stream Deck to control Vesktop and I thought I'd start by seeing if I could find a way to run a simple terminal command to the arRPC server but I couldn't find conclusive info on this functionality.
Assuming you're on Linux Mint + Pipewire, just look into this 👇
https://www.google.com/search?q=fix+audio+crackling+pipewire
I assume you're talking about this: https://discord.com/developers/docs/topics/rpc#setvoicesettings?
I highly doubt arrpc will add this ever, but we might switch to our own rpc in the future and might add it then
Wait, so this feature is documented but not implemented?
Oh wait no I am dumb, that's the official Discord RPC
Not arRPC
Well anyways, I would love to see a feature like this come to life in Vesktop! Even if it's not via RPC necessarily, anything that allows some scripted control of Vesktop would be very useful for integrating with other software. OpenDeck lets you create buttons that run shell commands so even something as basic as that would go a long way.
I'm probably missing some eyes, but where is the option to edit the date format in settings? Search and scrolling through a couple of menus didn't help
do you mean message date etc?
it's linked to your discord language setting
if you want 12h time, use American English, if you want 24h time use British English
yes! there's a separate toggle for setting 12h and 24h time, but no option for mm/dd/yyyy or dd/mm/yyyy - i'll try changing to british english
worked, thanks 💋
thanks, I'll check it out 🙂
@dapper stag Yes, I'm in Fedora

it was fixed above, update your vencord
oh lol it got fixed between me checking it and getting all the info. Thanks 🙏
Why did you ping them, I'm the one who responded lol
insanity
do you know how to code
Anyways yeah the fix that they linked above is your best bet. Are you using Bluetooth earbuds?
nope 💔
welp you can pull it in the next update, it is currently not a major issue rn
is it normal to get this error when trying to update the appimage version?
There's an appimage version? Huh, just looked it up. Nice that they offer that.
I got that error recently on Vesktop now that I think about it
But mine is from the Cachyos repos
Yea it's the only way to get arRPC working on immutable distros without having to do pain in the ass workarounds or run distroboxes that slow everything down. I'm on bazzite and I should have stuck with cachy but I was having trouble getting 5.1 audio to work in cachy
update how? do you mean via the inapp updater tab?
Yea it said my app was outdated click here to update and I clicked it and got that error, not sure if it updated. My arRPC broke recently though but it worked last week so maybe my app is out of date?

Could we take this discussion to #🧊-off-topic-iceman-only? Admittedly I have no advice for helping you with the arRPC stuff but I have been curious for a while about how surround sound can be done on linux and I am curious why you made your move to Bazzite to accomplish this.
Uh RPC For Valorant doesnt work for me, Arpc is enabled, most of the other games work
How to install vencord each time I try to install it say choose a custom pathway and when I choose one it says error pathway is invalid.How to fix this problem?

Hi all, I have identified a problem with vesktop. I am certain that it is in fact a problem with chromium, but I don't have any means to log issues with them, so I'm raising it here so that vesktop can take it upstream if they'd like to fix it.
The issue is that the audio buffer sizes in chromium are set to Windows defaults, on linux. Specifically this is that the webrtc capture (the mic) uses a 10ms buffer.
On linux, the best thing for buffers is to set them to powers of 2, so for example 256, 512, 1024 are good. The pipewire daemon will run the entire system at the highest power-of-2 buffer size which will accommodate the applications' requests. On windows, 10ms is the default. If we set a 10ms buffer in linux, then by default this is 480 samples at 48000Hz sample rate. When the application requests a 480 sample quantum in pipewire, a quantum of 512 will be too slow, so 10ms/480 will result in the graph running at a 5.33ms/256 quantum in order to service the buffers in time. The mic latency is already set very low, and nearly halving it is on the edge of the capability of most PCs to maintain.
The result of this improper buffer size/quantum, is excessive CPU utilisation which consequently may cause in crackling audio.
A better way to do this is to request a buffer of 512/48000. Pipewire will scale it accordingly for other sample rates, and it will result in 10.667ms buffers, barely any different from the 10ms we have, but half the load on the entire audio system, and much more reliable. But I'm sure that the chromium devs can ask the pipewire devs a better way to do things.
i do not have an account for chromium and i don't have bandwidth to drive this change
pretty sure it's public, you just need a google account to report issues
my options were: quickly (despite 10 minute wait lol) let the vesktop team know about this upstream bug which is causing their suppor load to be increased, or i could just let everyone suffer
to be clear, my PC doesn't have problems with this (aside from the increase cpu load which sucks but does no harm). I'm not trying to fix my PC. I'm trying to fix everyones
picture me with zero time rollng in to chromium to tell them they do audio wrong and when they ask me to run tests I say I dont use chromium
nah 🤣
OK I'm very busy so I will leave this here and hopefully a dev will see it and take it upstream to chromium
have a good one everyone
hi, i've been having issues related to screensharing: whenever i try to do so, vesktop seems to crash. i am on fedora 42, KDE. i tried to look up the issue on github, i believe that it has something to do with pipewire, but a computer restart does not seem to have fixed it. i have my webcam on as well, i don't know if that causes interference of some kind.
system issue, run vesktop from terminal to get error logs
what is vesktop ?
Hello, I'm getting a warning pop-up everytime I play a video from a youtube embed.
I've identified this problem is caused by the YoutubeAdblock plugin (at least it is for me on vesktop), since disabling the plugin removes the warning, and re-enabling it induces the warning every time.
Should I open an issue at https://github.com/Vendicated/Vencord/issues, since it is linked as the plugin's repo or elsewhere ? Is there anything else I could be doing on my end to make sure this is a bug with the plugin and not my install ?
Note : this does not prevent me from viewing the video, and the plugin fulfills its role of blocking ads, it's just a warning or 2 popping up.
Question will it ever be likely that discord will be banned on Windows 10 after the end of life date and if so does that mean Vesktop aswell
likely not, but better to switch to Windows 11
i cant
why?
wdym can't update?
I click the update thing but it wont update
so I guess it must be the new update that's the problem
I'm on arch (cachyOS) btw
