@Rhinoceros - I finally got screen sharing to work under KDE with Wayland. Looks like I'm using the same versions as you:

  • Zoom 6.2.10
  • pipewire 1.2.6

I followed the Screen share section on the Zoom wiki page:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Zoom_Meetings

The only thing I didn't need to do was set XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=gnome. I followed the other steps, and now I can choose my desktop/window to share. Prior to following the wiki I couldn't stop screen sharing without the hanging issue, which I was experiencing prior to 6.2.10.

I contacted the zoom support on 13th July 2016 and tried to lure them into creating a proper PKGBUILD respectively adopting this one, considering they are providing a package over very none standard ways to the Arch Linux community (downloading via a *foreign* site) and not through the official repo or the AUR. However there was little to no progress so far.

I can confirm as well that screen shares are crashing on the 5.9.x versions. (Found out the hard way - during a call today.) :-( And that downgrading to 5.8 works. If anyone hears of a fix, please post.

@el_kleino I can confirm the exact same problem. 5.9.3 and 5.9.6 frequently crash hard when trying to share. It also seems to be worse with more people in the call. But it will also sometimes crash with one other participant.

I have downgraded to 5.8.6 for now but would love some solution for this problem.

@el_kleino I experienced same screen sharing crashed. I downgraded to 5.8.6-1 -> seems to work fine for now.

Hi, since the last upgrade, zoom frequently crashes when I try to do screen sharing. Does someone else have the same problem? It seems to happen more frequently if more people are in the call.

@thuchuc, if you are a gnome user, then the problem is likely that zoom abuses the screensharing mechanism under wayland, and by default, gnome will not allow the security violation. The workaround is to use lookingglass (ALT-F2 --> lg) and set this variable to true in the console:

global.context.unsafe_mode = true

It works, but you have to do it every login.

Hello everyone. It seems that I've lost the ability of sharing the screen in zoom. From what I'm reading it may be a problem of Gnome but I wanted to at least point this out here. Is anyone experiencing this issue?

@tsujigiri_nin Thanks for reporting this to Zoom. Zoom is definitely the problem. I have tried using the Zoom Test meeting on two different Debian based systems. The test meeting crashed on both devices.
