Recording doesn't start gnome 40 (x11) #298
Comments
I've experienced timeouts as well, but I could only reproduce it when switching from a wayland session to a x11 session. In a wayland session, screencast works immediately. Can you record with the standard gnome screencast shortcut? ctrl+shift+alt+R I could get it eventually work with a small number of retries. At some point, it suddenly starts working... After trying a couple of times ctlr+shift+alt+R - once this works, then EasyScreenCast also started working. |
In wayland it works as expected (the native gnome screencast and Easyscreencast), on Xorg, none of them are working. |
another case (from #292):

It's working now for me. Nothing special done, I used wayland for some days and now back to X11 and it works as expected. |
Maybe this URL will help to troubleshoot: https://github.com/emersion/xdg-desktop-portal-wlr/wiki/%22It-doesn't-work%22-Troubleshooting-Checklist @Avijneyam FYI |
@Avijneyam I've tried to reproduce it on Kali Linux 2021.3a and gnome-shell 3.38.4 under x11. But that works out of the box. The only way I could make it fail was, when I manually stopped the service "pipewire-media-session". Can you check, whether this service is running for you?
It should say "Active: active (running)". If I update Kali Linux now, I'll get gnome-shell 41, so - maybe you should update your Kali as well and the problem is gone? |
Thanks @adangel for mentioning me and sorry for late reply... Failed to start pipewire-media-session.service: Unit pipewire-media-session.service not found. also i've updated Kali Gnome: 41.2 still this ext. not working for me |
Thank you for porting the extension to Gnome 40 \o/
In the open points, I see "There is a problem with the gstreamer pipeline - fixed. Gnome Shell 40 needs a videoconvert element first".
Not sure if it's related, but I can install the extension, I can get the parameters, ... all fine. But I'm not able to start recording:
I tried different output format too.
I'm using Fedora 34 with gnome-shell-40.4-1.fc34.x86_64 (Using Xorg)
