In third_party/webrtc/webrtc.gni¹: # Set this to use PipeWire on the Wayland display server. # By default it's only enabled on desktop Linux (excludes ChromeOS) and # only when using the sysroot as PipeWire is not available in older and # supported Ubuntu and Debian distributions. rtc_use_pipewire = is_desktop_linux && use_sysroot
use_sysroot is set to false in snap builds, so rtc_use_pipewire would need to be explicitly set to true. This might require additional build/runtime deps (assuming they are available in Ubuntu 18.04, which is used to build the chromium snaps). ¹ https://cs.chromium.org/chromium/src/third_party/webrtc/webrtc.gni?type=cs&q=rtc_use_pipewire&sq=package:chromium&g=0&l=115 ** Tags added: snap ** Summary changed: - (experimental) pipewire support not available + [snap] (experimental) pipewire support not available ** Changed in: chromium-browser (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to chromium-browser in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1849478 Title: [snap] (experimental) pipewire support not available Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I'm using the chromium snap (currently 77.0.3865.120, rev 899), it's not possible to enable experimental support for pipewire, as the toggle doesn't show up in chrome://flags. It would be nice to have chromium compiled with pipewire support, to enable screensharing in Hangouts and similar apps.
