highlights

  • split the lightweight wallr ipc client from wallr-daemon, which owns wayland, wgpu, and ffmpeg. static commands no longer load the rendering stack.
  • wallr daemon remains the command to start the daemon; release archives include both executables.
  • software video frames now use nv12 rather than full-resolution rgba before upload.
  • hardware decoding selects an ffmpeg decoder that supports the requested backend. the configured --fps cap also skips unnecessary frame transfers and conversion.

downloads

  • wallr-linux-amd64.tar.gz contains the client, daemon, readme, and documentation.
  • wallr-linux-amd64.tar.gz.sha256 contains the archive checksum.
  • the release binary includes static ffmpeg with nvdec support; an nvidia driver is still required to use nvdec.
