[Bug 1918189] Re: Can not share gnome-terminal in Google Meet under xwayland

2021-03-08 Thread Daniel van Vugt
Actually, it *may* work under Xwayland. I'm not sure. Either way, the
answer is to configure Chrome to use PipeWire. PipeWire is the official
means of screen recording/casting because Wayland by itself does not
allow apps to spy on each other, by design.

If you are having trouble getting PipeWire to work with Chrome then I
suggest turning it into a Chromium bug because that is something we
distribute in Ubuntu and can track bugs for.

Also, this is probably not a bug in any Ubuntu packages so I expect it
will be marked as Invalid unless we can find a reason otherwise.

2021-03-08 Thread Daniel van Vugt
This will never work under Xwayland but it should work using native
Wayland. But Chrome will choose not to use native Wayland by default
(yet). Please try:

  google-chrome --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-
platform=wayland

and

  chrome://flags/#enable-webrtc-pipewire-capturer

If that doesn't work then one possible reason might be bug 1899224.

Hi Robert,

Unfortunately this is not exactly a bug, it's a limitation of the Chrome 
browser.
If you want to use the screen sharing functionality of Chrome you need two 
things:

- you need the pipewire package, and you should have already have it
with hirsute

- you have to enable the following experimental flag in Chrome
chrome://flags/#enable-webrtc-pipewire-capturer
