@SprobbyBlongo

I have amd/nvidia. for nvidia i'm using proprietary and nvidia-drm.modeset-1. amd is integrated. I use optimus manager to switch which doesn't work on wayland, but does switch out globally, and it appears to work on wayland with on both GPUs.

@username227

Interesting. I am using an Nvidia GPU with proprietary drivers and the following kernel parameters:

nvidia-drm.modeset=1 nvidia-drm.fbdev=1 nvidia.NVreg_EnableGpuFirmware=0

Are you using amd or intel graphics?

@SprobbyBlongo,

I cannot replicate. Just successfully ran on Wayland and even successfully played a show.

This works fine in an X11 session but not with wayland. Not sure if this is just a me thing but when I open it in terminal this output just goes on forever:

@samuel-emrys - I just pushed an update to fix the error. The update to ffmpeg7 broke plex. ffmpeg6.1 is now an AUR package and is required to run this. ffmpeg6.1 and ffmpeg packages can coexist, so this should be fixed now.

@samuel-emrys - I just spent the past hour trying to figure out what the problem is, as it was working fine two days ago but now I can confirm your error. I believe the problem was the recent update from ffmpeg6.1 to ffmpeg7.0. However, I cannot downgrade to test because i'll end up in a dependency nightmare. Hopefully @huyz can push a fix for this.

A fresh installation gives:

$ Plex
/opt/plex-desktop/bin/Plex: error while loading shared libraries: libswresample.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

@huyz, I have a pkgbuild for this package updated for the latest. But I can't publish since I'm not a maintainer. If you like, you can add me as a co-maintainer and I would be happy to assist in keeping it up to date. thanks!

Did anyone manage to get GPU decoding working? Unfortunately for me the player takes up 100% CPU during playback

@username227 unfortunately that does not work for me (I already have the correct xdg portal applications installed, and I am on Plasma 6), but copying the config files from the flatpak indeed does work!
