@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.

Sharing screen doesn't crash anymore on 5.10.3-1, but when trying to enable the blured background, the camera would just freeze. I installed the package provided from the zoom website, and now the blurring works again.

@iRaS Calling the package simple is an overstatement. Since there is no source code available, it really just repackages what is available upstream. Thus, I think it is highly unlikely that the bug is related to the package/packaging itself. I would suggest filing a bug upstream to let the zoom folks know about your problem.

@yavko no, also the latest version has the same "feature". I'm wondering if that is an issue from zoom or from the package.

Can confirm the screen sharing is finally fixed in zoom-5.10.3-1.

Does anyone know if zoom still crashes when sharing screen on new version 5.10.3-1?

chovy commented on 2022-04-18 23:01 (UTC)

new version available.

@iRaS have you figured out how to fix the WM_CLASS thing? I have the same issue but the zoom app also doesn't use the correct icon anymore, I might try the flatpak to see if it fixes this. Btw I'm on gnome 42.

I have exactly the same problem @krmath is having: enabling the virtual background without a green screen results in either a frozen or a completely black video feed.

In addition, trying to share my screen results in Zoom freezing and requiring a restart.

I am running Zoom version 5.10.0-1 on Xorg and did not have a problem using virtual backgrounds or sharing my screen until recently. Any solution or workaround would be very welcome.

as a workaround version 5.8.6 was working fine until today, where it says: "Update Required Your app version needs to be 5.9.3 (1911) or higher to sign in."

I am using company Sign On.

Anyone tested other later versions that do not crash?
