@snack trayer should (?) fix your single-monitor setup problem, although it's interesting that it works in a dual monitor setup, I'll try my laptop with my HDMI monitor to see if that works without trayer. Maybe this is actually a bug in Qt.

@seadanda I find no problem with Vidyo since a very long time. All the releases work perfectly for me. The only segfault I experience (again since a very long time) is when starting the client in a single-monitor setup. In a dual-monitor setup (in my case, laptop + external VGA monitor) absolutely no problem. Is this segfault you are speaking about related to single-monitor setup as mine? If so, the trayer patch will be very welcome.

@zbraniecki brilliant, I've just tried that and so far everything has worked perfectly. I've also found that if you launch trayer, then launch VidyoDesktop and then kill trayer once it has started up everything still functions as expected. Thanks for the workaround, I've made trayer a dependency (which I hope nobody objects to, since as far as I can tell this affects anybody with an up-to-date Qt).
@Jonhoo let me know if this works for you, the best I had managed was to have it working with a rolled back Qt which was messy.

A workaround I found is that if you install trayer
and launch it before launching VidyoDesktop, things work.

@seadanda any luck finding a way to work around the problems with upstream QT?

Hi @bunnybooboo, VidyoDesktop broke with an update to qt a few months ago. Unfortunately Vidyo stopped supporting Vidyo Desktop on Linux a long time ago and so I doubt we will see any attempts to fix this problem. The current version (3.6.3_017) was released back in March 2016. Since it is closed source the only way that we have found to run it succesfully is by using a systemtray application.
If you run trayer (which is installed as a dependency) before running Vidyo Desktop, Vidyo works without any issues. This is unfortunate but it is an upstream issue.
