@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.

@darose also tried screen-sharing on 5.10.0 and get the crash. Downgrading to 5.8.6 as others have done seems to have fixed it.

I can't speak much for screen sharing as I haven't really tried it. But 5.10 seems to have an issue for me where my camera doesn't transmit any data. The light on my laptop indicates I'm sharing video, but nothing shows up. Reverting back to 5.8.6 or any of the 5.9.x versions gets my camera working again.

@darose I'm on 5.10.x and I can confirm screen sharing causes the client to crash completely.

darose commented on 2022-03-22 18:38 (UTC)

Anyone know if 5.10.x fixes the screen sharing crash issues a number of people ran into with the 5.9 series?

@ddeville Please file a bug upstream. I am sure they are happy to fix it for all Linux distributions.

ddeville commented on 2022-03-22 17:23 (UTC)

Looks like WM_CLASS in 5.10.0-1 has a trailing space "zoom " which breaks bspc rules in bspwm.

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.
