discord/vesktop is unable to play some videos, and this could be either linux or vesktop's fault

[spark locust]

so, some videos are actually unable to run on discord, it's related to hevc, and this specific codec cannot run on arch
is there any good fix? i downloaded vesktop-bin from arch repo btw

[shell furnace]

@spark locust try discord-canary

[spark locust]

damn that was a quick one

nope

still the same

@shell furnace

[shell furnace]

@spark locust discord-ptb

[spark locust]

nope

@shell furnace

[shell furnace]

flatpak

[spark locust]

used it before, because of it i decided to download vesktop-bin actually

[shell furnace]

discord_arch_electron

[spark locust]

adding
vesktop --enable-features=CanvasOopRasterization,VaapiVideoDecoder,UseChromeOSDirectVideoDecoder,VaapiIgnoreDriverChecks,PlatformHEVCDecoderSupport,Vulkan,DefaultANGLEVulkan,VulkanFromANGLE --ozone-platform=x11 didnt work either btw

[spark locust]

also no

[shell furnace]

discord-canary-electron-bin

[spark locust]

are we gonna try every single discord available on arch repo till it decides to work?

[shell furnace]

not the unofficial ones

[shell furnace]

discord.com

[spark locust]

the web discord?

[shell furnace]

yes

[spark locust]
