Arch Linux User Repository

I don't think it's easily fixable. I just tested the Qt webview example on Manjaro and it exhibits exactly the same behaviour.

This isn't an issue on Ubuntu, so for whatever reason, Qt WebView is broken on Manjaro, so it either needs to be fixed on the Qt end or on the Manjaro/Arch end.

EDIT: just tested a bit further. So the issue exists in Qt 5.15.2 (which fmod studio is on) but is fixed in 6.2.4. So this should just go away whenever the Qt version is updated.

@nalgenebottle I'm having the same issue as you. There's a couple of threads in the FMOD forum where some people are discussing this and similar problems; the solutions in those threads didn't work for me, but you might have better luck.

Hi, is there any known bugs with the Fmod.io integration ? When I try to open the Fmod.io browser, it just shows a blank grey window, no login prompt or anything.

It's supposed to work and uses qt5-webengine (which I have installed), but it doesn't on my system ...

Hey, I was really happy to see that this package is in the AUR. But, while trying to install it I'm running into the following error.

Looks like fmodstudio got updated to a new patch. I was able to clone the repo and modify line 15 to see the updated file instead.

_filename=fmodstudio20205linux64_patch1-installer.deb

I'm installing now and will let you know if I run into any other problems.

edit: This installed and I was able to boot-up fmodstudio without issue. Thanks for the package!

@flortsch the pipewire issue has been fixed in FMOD Studio 2.02.05, so there should be no need to use FMOD_ALSA_DEVICE once this package is updated.

@mitchpk I replaced pipewire with pulseaudio and indeed fmodstudio starts. Still no luck running on pipewire, but I figured out one can force fmodstudio to use a different backend with FMOD_ALSA_DEVICE=pulse fmodstudio, and then it also works on pipewire. Nothing xorg/wayland related.

@flortsch I am running pipewire and pipewire-pulse too. Looking at the output when I run fmodstudio, it appears similar to what you have posted - after reaching the last line "Uninitialize Sound System..." the window appears. Perhaps try running it with the "QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland" environment variable, or installing xorg-xwayland (as the first line in your log says that you are running a wayland session)

Nice that you packaged fmodstudio :) However, it does not start for me. I am running on pipewire and pipewire-pulse. Do others have a similar problem?

Warning: Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland to run on Wayland anyway.

Hey @mitchpk! Thanks for this port. I've been using FMOD Studio since 2018 on Linux and I'm very happy to see it here on AUR. I'll give it a try and I'll get back to you. Thank you for this!
