does anyone know what cause these decorations to not show?

vencord on safari when

#

On further inspection, this actually doesn't work, Vesktop actually forces the file back to read-write on startup for some reason!

#

also whats wrong with dropping their real name to apple what

#

it most likely already has it since ages

dapper stag
#

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

torn oasis
# olive bone 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)

olive bone
#

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

dapper stag
#

I did because it confused a lot of people

#

but it's not an ideal solution

rich cape
#

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 ❤️

dapper stag
#

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

#

if it adds the html one back then it's just an issue with your system

spiral ice
#

It does appear to be a problem with my system. Maybe I should contact xdg-settings...

dapper stag
#

i'm not sure who is at fault here

#

what does this output
dpkg -S $(which xdg-settings)

spiral ice
dapper stag
#

i don't think xdg-utils is at fault, every system uses that

spiral ice
#

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...

dapper stag
#

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?

spiral ice
#

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.

#

there's this issue about exactly this issue, fixed 4 months ago

spiral ice
dapper stag
#

I'm on this

#

classic ubuntu not updating packages dogkek

#

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
spiral ice
#

and then reopen Vesktop to see if it does it agan?

dapper stag
#

nah

#

just that command and see if it sets itself as html handler

dapper stag
spiral ice
#

Looks like that works!

dapper stag
#

and you're on gnome right?

spiral ice
#

Cinnamon, but that's gnome-derived IIRC?

dapper stag
#

oh it might actually only affect cinnamon

spiral ice
#

I wouldn't be too surprised.

dapper stag
#

yeah going through the message history everyone affected seems to be on cinnamon

spiral ice
#

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.

dapper stag
#

@stray ivy @livid charm are you on cinnamon DE?

dapper stag
#

just share neofetch or smth

stray ivy
#

oh right

dapper stag
#

thanks

#

so seems to just be old xdg-settings causing it

spiral ice
#

Seems so.

dapper stag
#

I'll look into it further and add a temporary workaround or just remove it for now

#

thanks for helping me debug Matz

spiral ice
#

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!

dapper stag
#

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

spiral ice

Oh, sorry, I was AFK. Checking now!

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)

people who watch the stream will still get the quality you picked, its displayed incorrectly on your end

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.

#

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?

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.

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)

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

Vesktop doesn't seem to work behind proxy on Linux. It just get stuck on the initial loading pop up.
My proxy settings are:

$ cat /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/95proxies

Acquire::https::proxy "http://myproxy.local/";
Acquire::ftp::proxy "http://myproxy.local/";

FTP_PROXY="http://myproxy.local/"
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

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.

# weary nebula 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

you might want to check any css/themes youre using and also try and get a comparison to the desktop app if possible

If you are trying to install plugins from the third party plugins channel, see the pinned message there.
Do not ask for further help or you will lose access to support. If you cannot figure it out with the pinned message, it's not for you.

Absolutely no support is provided with such installs. If you want to ask for help with bugs / issues, install the regular way.

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

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.

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.

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)

grim pewter
#

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

can vesktop (on linux) work with discord reactive? it usually needs the desktop app, which vesktop is not

https://reactive.fugi.tech

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

we 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

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?

Is this something that could be feasibly added to it's functionality?

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.

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.

slow granite
#

i do not have an account for chromium and i don't have bandwidth to drive this change

dapper stag
#

pretty sure it's public, you just need a google account to report issues

slow granite
#

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

slow granite
#

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.

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.
