@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.

tested 6.1.11, screen sharing still broken, unable to select individual windows and it crashes when ending the screen share.

How are people able to get the screen sharing working at all? for me, when I press the screen share button, there is the first dialog to start sharing screen, I select "use system" and continue, but the following popup doesn't even open, the sharing doesn't start - nothing happens.

I have audio problems with all 6.1.X versions. output is great, but mic makes choppy sound, other participants can't even understand what I say.

Changing system.audio.type to alsa in ~/.config/zoomus.conf didn't work

ps.I don't use pulse

tested 6.1.11, screen sharing still broken, unable to select individual windows and it crashes when ending the screen share. How can we help to get this fixed sooner as non-devs? it's been going on ever since this new version got released, I already made a post on the zoom support page a while ago. I really need screen sharing to work properly for my work.

Turning off compression did it for me (for all AUR packages): https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Makepkg#Performance-related_changes

Whenever I run yay -S zoom the "compressing package" part of the process takes an inordinate amount of time; like a couple of minutes or longer. Anyone have any idea why that is?

I've just tested the new version 6.1.10. The issues are in place: screen share the whole workspace only, hang on stopping the screen sharing session.

VanClaussen commented on 2024-08-16 10:05 (UTC)

Same here, can't specify screen or window when screen sharing and can't stop without a crash. Log output: *** pw_stream_set_active called from wrong context, check thread and locking: Operation not permitted *** impl_ext_end_proxy called from wrong context, check thread and locking: Operation not permitted 'this->recurse > 0' failed at ../pipewire/src/pipewire/thread-loop.c:62 do_unlock() [11205:11205]ZoomCollabHost exit,Received signal: 2

Does anyone have an idea or do we have to wait for the zoom team to fix this issue?

update: still crashing when stopping the screen share with updated zoom 6.1.6-1 pipewire 1:1.2.2-1

I also cannot screen share using Wayland. I've read through 3 pages of comments here, and looked around various places on the internet, but none of the CLI env work for me. I also tried downgrading my pipewire/wireplumber packages, but this also failed. Is there a working solution under Wayland? @edh perhaps you could pin your comment. Thanks in advance.

Edit: Also followed the instructions in the wiki (~/.config/zoomus.conf, XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=gnome, Screen capture mode to Pipewire), but all this failed. Further, the web version of Zoom also fails in Firefox.

I confirm the issue with plasma 6.1 over wayland sesión and up to date packages. My workaround is login with x11 and works as usual.
