Screensharing is done through PipeWire on Wayland. ## Prerequisites Make sure you have `pipewire` and `wireplumber` installed, enabled and running if you don't have them yet. ## Screensharing Read [this amazing gist by PowerBall253](https://gist.github.com/PowerBall253/2dea6ddf6974ba4e5d26c3139ffb7580) for a great tutorial. ## Better screensharing See [the hyprland portal page](../Hyprland-desktop-portal) ## XWayland If your screensharing application is running under XWayland (like Discord, Skype,...), it can only see other XWayland windows and cannot share an entire screen or a Wayland window. The KDE-team has implemented a workaround for this called [xwaylandvideobridge](https://invent.kde.org/system/xwaylandvideobridge). You can use [this AUR package](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xwaylandvideobridge-git) on ArchLinux. Note that Hyprland currently doesn't support the way it tries to hide the main window, so you will have to create some window-rules to achieve the same effect. See [this issue](https://invent.kde.org/system/xwaylandvideobridge/-/issues/1) for more information. For example: ```ini windowrulev2 = opacity 0.0 override 0.0 override,class:^(xwaylandvideobridge)$ windowrulev2 = noanim,class:^(xwaylandvideobridge)$ windowrulev2 = noinitialfocus,class:^(xwaylandvideobridge)$ windowrulev2 = maxsize 1 1,class:^(xwaylandvideobridge)$ windowrulev2 = noblur,class:^(xwaylandvideobridge)$ ```
