Im my system, the deezer app is crashing with this message:

(process:19347): Gtk-ERROR **: 06:00:41.316: GTK 2/3 symbols detected. Using GTK 2/3 and GTK 4 in the same process is not supported
zsh: trace trap (core dumped)

If anyone is having the same problem, I found a workaround[1]:

deezer --gtk-version=3

[1]https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/46538

@mboquien it appears to be fixed with version 7.0.80-1

The checksum appear to be incorrect for deezer.

    deezer-7.0.80-setup.exe ... Passed

@jonasmalacofilh: I see. Should be fixed in 7.0.40

The reintroduction of the systray-buttons-fix.patch makes typing a space in the search box pause/unpause the playback.

Hi, is the gapless playback available in the app? when i try to play a song that has a direct connection with the next in the list, the song stops before the next start to play and sounds kinda weird.

I cannot update to 6.0.290, it fails during prepare():

Amazing! I solved the problem myself by some google searching. I'll share it here...

As it turns out, Chromium has an undocumented command line option:

--disable-gpu

I just tried this with the Deezer app and it works: deezer --disable-gpu

(For app like this, which is just for playing music, I really don't care about it to run hardware accelerated, but just that it works. :P)

So now we know this works, the next step is to edit the .desktop shortcut, put this command line option into it, and storing the shortcut in ~/.local/share/applications/ (I just do that by rightclick and editing the icon in my Plasma desktop, so that this is done automatically).

Anyone else having graphical troubles with NVIDIA and running this app on a Wayland desktop? I am seeing black contents inside the app window.

For a very long time I been using Xfce running Xorg and the Deezer app always worked.

But I am now using KDE Plasma running on Wayland, and I see a pitch black pitch black screen with dedicated NVIDIA graphics enabled on my laptop.

Note that pressing spacebar inside the window pressing the play/pause/forward/backward buttons on my keyboard still work. And the mouse as well, as the cursor still gets a hand shape where hyperlinks should be visible.

When I use dynamic graphics, effectively using my AMD CPU graphics card by default, the app works normally. (This hybrid mode for my laptop reduces energy, but reduces graphics performance and quality, so being able to switch between both options is what I want, and using Deezer in both ways would be great)

It's probably and old Electron13 Chromium engine problem, but maybe someone knows a fix.
