Linux Wine/Proton Video Playback shows garbled pink screen with no audio
drojf opened this issue · comments
On Higurashi Rei ran under Linux Wine/Proton (modded like a Windows install), video play back will show a garbled pink screen with no audio (such as at the start of Hiru Console).
This is because the installer installs the Windows video file, and our mod currently has no knowledge of whether it is running under Wine or not, so tries to playback the Windows video file, which is not supported properly on Wine/Proton.
It might be possible to fix this by making sure wine installs have the linux video file only - Rei onwards will automatically play any compatible video file. However on previous chapters, some code would be needed to make sure the DLL will try to play the .ogv if no .mp4 exists.
2022-08-19: I'm going to put this notice in the release
For Linux Proton/Wine users, currently the opening videos won't play.
- If you installed using the installer, you may be able to get around this by deleting the videos in the HigurashiEp09_Data\StreamingAssets\movies folder, then installing the Linux movies from the manual install page
- If you are installing manually, try installing the Linux movie files instead of the Windows ones
- This fix only works for this chapter
This should be fixed by 07th-mod/python-patcher@4bfa159 (and previous commits).
The installer will automatically install the Linux Movie files if Wine is detected.
