A shoutout to https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/discord_arch_electron/ (use that one if you want stable instead of canary!) :p

This is just a PKGBUILD based on the original discord-canary PKGBUILD and the discord_arch_electron PKGBUILD to use with Canary instead.

Discord on the latest version uses Electron 22 by itself. Might be worth using the official version if that is what you're after.

!! As Electron 28 joined the official repos, I've pinned this to electron26 instead, as using Electron 28 results on a crash at startup. If it ever works with Electron 28, please let me know.

I can confirm that streaming or watching streams does not work with this client.

unable to watch streams. internal reset. --enable-accelerated-mjpeg-decode --enable-accelerated-video --ignore-gpu-blacklist --enable-native-gpu-memory-buffers --enable-gpu-rasterization

Doesn't work. Discord canary electron cannot stream or watch streams anymore. (AMD 6800XT)

Normal Discord Electron appears to stream just fine.

For me, on X11, with Electron 19 the screensharing does not work. When I click on it, it just loads the screen share sources infinitely. I tried Electron 20 as well, but with that one Discord doesn't work at all.

Pushed a fix and pinned to Electron 19 for now.

Electron 20 works for me. I'll look for a way to fix this not working properly.

bgkillas commented on 2022-08-07 13:23 (UTC)

bgkillas commented on 2022-08-07 09:37 (UTC)

@Foxinatel nice, mind if I use as-is in that repo on here?
