@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.

The share selection is now working for me as well, someone in the forums mentioned that he had to set the wayland sharing option to pipewire in the settings. Located at Settings -> Screen Share -> Advanced

@Rhinoceros I'm using Wayland on Gnome as well.

@VanClaussen, yes, I switched to Manjaro testing some weeks ago. Curiously, though, I never had any problems with the screen share selection – on both stable and testing. What window manager are you using? I am on gnome (gnome-shell 1:47.1-1 with gdm 47.0-1), using a wayland only setup (wayland 1.23.1-1) with minimal x11 libraries installed.

I also still can't pick which window to share with Zoom 6.2.10. I'm also on the latest pipewire 1.2.6. After selecting "Use system window capture", there's a confirmation box from the DE saying "Remote control requested", then Zoom just shares all my screens.

I'm using Wayland on KDE, @arash-m, what are you using?

VanClaussen commented on 2024-11-18 14:32 (UTC)

Okay I'm on 1.2.5. Polly seems to be on Manjaro testing, I'm on stable. @Polly selecting what to share does work for you? Depending on the answer, my client will then be fixed after the next stable release of Manjaro hopefully.

arash-m commented on 2024-11-18 14:20 (UTC)

@VanClaussen I'm using the latest, 1.2.6. In Zoom, from the screen share window, I choose "Use system window capture", and then I can select individual windows there.

VanClaussen commented on 2024-11-18 14:17 (UTC)

Can confirm, it doesn't crash anymore after stop, but I still can't choose what to share, it always shares all screens. arash-m what pipewire versions are you using?

Polly commented on 2024-11-18 14:02 (UTC)

Confirmed. Crashes after screen shares seem fixed in 2.6.10-1 with pipewire 1:1.2.6-1 and linux611 6.11.9-1 (Manjaro). Finally!

I tested 6.2.10. It seems all issues are fixed. It doesn't crash after stopping the screenshare anymore and I can also share individual windows.
