## Installing
#### AUR
```sh
yay -S xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland-git
```
#### Manual
See [The Github repo's readme](https://github.com/hyprwm/xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland).
Make sure to disable XDPW from starting to avoid conflicts.
## Usage
Should start automatically.
The most basic way of telling everything is OK is by trying to screenshare anything, or
open OBS and select pipewire source. If XDPH is running, a qt menu will pop up asking you
what to share.
If it doesn't, and you get e.g. slurp, then XDPW is launching. In that case, try removing XDPW.
XDPH will work on other wlroots compositors, but features available only on Hyprland will not work
(e.g. window sharing)
For a nuclear option, you can use this script and `exec-once` it:
```sh
@ -31,7 +49,8 @@ sleep 1
killall xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland
killall xdg-desktop-portal-wlr
killall xdg-desktop-portal
/usr/lib/xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland &
/usr/libexec/xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland &
sleep 2
/usr/lib/xdg-desktop-portal &
```
adjust the paths if incorrect.
