@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.

Screenshare did not work for me (Gnome-wayland) until I installed gstreamer's plugin for pipewire.

Installing gst-plugin-pipewire fixed the issue. Should this be added as a dependency?

I have two major problems with Zoom on Wayland: - I can't share screens, when I open the screensharing menu, the options for my screens and windows aren't there as they used to be with xorg. I've followed the instructions pointed from "Wayland screen share" at https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Zoom_Meetings, but they won't work. - The security menu is black, so I can't, for example, enable others to share screen.

Thanks!

I can't get this to run at all in sway (pure wayland). I see others here saying it works in this setup, but I'm at a loss.

zoom started.
zoom started.
zoom was exited due to a handled signal: 5 
ZoomLauncher exit.

XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland
XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=sway
QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland

Any ideas?

Hi I'm running on some trouble with the package which I was unable to solve till now.

I have my windowing system working just fine (I'm using Xmonad + Lightdm + Xorg), I also changed the /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness to basically match the maximum brightness and again works fine, the problem comes when screen sharing on Zoom meetings. In that case my screen brightness decays a lot for me and for the shared content to the point I can't see a lot.

Is this a well known problem? I see below other issues when screen sharing but for me is just the brightness.

Sure, will do with the next release.

+1 to making xorg-xwayland optional. For non-wayland users it's an unnecessary dependency. Thanks!

I can run zoom without xorg-xwayland without problems. Surely I am not running sway nor wayland at all.

Please consider making the dependency on xorg-xwayland opional.

Thanks.

Has anyone figured out how to make zoom forcibly run in x11 if the rest of the session is in wayland or a way to get screen share to work in wayland (and not using OBS camera workaround)?

Using KDE and wayland and I have tried QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb though it seemingly makes no difference for me

EDIT: I got it working from terminal but I cannot get it to work by editing the desktop file. (although I guess that gets overwritten if I get a zoom update). From terminal this works: QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11 nohup zoom %U &; disown

EDIT2: apparently it did not work as it seems to work from my side however then people in the meeting reports that the share was just a black screen even though the preview before share on my side was showing correctly.
