update to Chromium 112 broke screen sharing
mvdan opened this issue · comments
I realize that this might well be a bug in Chromium, but I want to check here first before I go upstream. I'm using xdg-desktop-portal-wlr v0.6.0 from June 2022, so perhaps that version is too old for the latest chromium version. Screen sharing worked with chromium 111, and still continues to work with Firefox 111.
Also note that I'm running Chromium natively on Wayland without xwayland, though I don't think this matters.
Running chromium via the command line, I see the following error when I try to share my screen and see nothing:

In case it helps, this is with pipewire 0.3.67.
Worth noting that I tried master as of 6737c20 and it works. So perhaps this issue can be closed by simply doing a release. In that case, I think this issue is still helpful for others running into the same problem when using the latest releases.
I'm not sure what has changed in the past day, but with the same original setup, that being the latest xdg-desktop-portal-wlr release, now Firefox fails to screenshare as well.
I have hit this since a few days on Fedora37, now Fedora38 beta with xdg-desktop-portal-wlr-0.6.0, on google chrome. My workaround for now is downgrade to Chrome 111.
I was hit by this too with Debian bookworm using the more recent sway and pipewire versions from experimental. Neither Chrome nor Firefox was able to do screensharing.
I built the wlr portal binary from the current master and replaced it in the system (/usr/libexec/xdg-desktop-portal-wlr) and now Chrome works again. Firefox is still disfunctional but it's probably because it's the ESR release (102.9.0) and also would need an update. Maybe this helps someone else until there is a release and the distributions pick it up.
Same problem here on arch
Firefox 113.0b2 (developer edition) works fine
Chromium 112.0.5615.49 doesn't
FIX for every arch user : just install xdg-desktop-portal-wlr-git from the AUR replacing xdg-desktop-portal
@emersion @columbarius could a new version be released to avoid relying on xdg-desktop-portal-wlr-git from the AUR, which could potentially cause additional problems?
Perhaps another data point here:
Screen sharing broke with the same errors as @mvdan on Chrome 112.0.5615.121 (Official Build) (64-bit) . Screen sharing is fine on Firefox 112.0 though.
xdg-desktop-portal-wlr: 0.6.0-1
Just to share: it also stopped working for me with Chromium 112, but changing to latest git fixed it. Latest Firefox works just fine with 0.6.0.
Should be fixed in xdpw 0.7. Please reopen if this is not the case.
