Description:
In order to be able to share the ENTIRE screen, or to be able to share wayland only (not xwayland) windows it's not enough to have Pipewire installed, because there's one chromium flag to manually enable pipewire support. I don't know how to enable it in this package so I tried it using discord via Google Chrome browser, and enabling "enable-webrtc-pipewire-capturer" flag in chrome://flags, and now it works. Is there a way to enable this flag in this package without the need to use Google Chrome to be properly share screen? |
This task depends upon
Does enabling that make it work?
A quick Google search seems to suggest using the browser version of Discord in Chromium:

(Reassigned to Filipe who maintains the discord package.)
yeah I know, I can use Chromium or Firefox to use Discord and screen share works... I was just wondering if it was possible to have this option in the official app.
