I'm very happy about #gnomeshell / #gnome47 shipping hard encoding for its internal screen recorder. With the upcoming #gstreamer 1.24.6 release all currently known bugs are fixed, even though I kinda expect more to come on some multi-GPU setups.
It's about time that we use hw-enc in more places by default and the screen recorder is IMO in a pretty good spot to role things out: on one hand it's used by many people, ensuring we get bug reports, while OTOH its functionality is not crucial.

Regarding the #postmarketos 24.06 release (congrats and thanks to all contributors!) I wanted to add a detail that I think wasn't really mentioned in the posts I saw so far: this release come with #libcamera + #pipewire support by default - even if #pulseaudio is used for audio.
That means that screensharing on #wayland should work OOTB and - more crucially - that a camera stack is in place that allows a much greater number of apps to use cameras - including sandboxed ones.

#firefox #webrtc using #pipewire and #libcamera (with softwareISP) on a #thinkpadx13s - it finally works \o/
The required patches will also make things work for a bunch of #linuxmobile devices.

For people following me: I just moved my account from floss.social as I disagree with their moderation. In fact I consider their judgement outside of what is acceptable to me, so better part ways.
