 AssertInequality | Did something change in the heroic FHS between 24.11 and 25.05? It's back to giving me gstreamer errors. | 09:54:12 |
 K900 | Possibly | 09:54:47 |
| K900 | What errors? | 09:54:50 |
| K900 | Honestly I think we should just yeet most of that fhsenv and tell people to use Proton | 09:55:14 |
| AssertInequality | 0220:err:winediag:h264_decoder_create GStreamer doesn't support H.264 decoding, please install appropriate plugins | 09:56:05 |
| AssertInequality | That's with GE-Proton 10-1 in heroic | 09:56:41 |
| K900 | Hm, proton should ship its own gstreamer | 09:57:04 |
| K900 | And its own plugins | 09:57:09 |
| K900 | I wonder if they just don't ship h264 for licensing reasons | 09:57:17 |
| AssertInequality | yeah, that's my initial understanding as well
but failing that, it should load the system GStreamer, which if I understand correctly is already included in the heroic FHS | 09:58:17 |
| K900 | Uhh | 09:58:39 |
| K900 | That's far from guaranteed | 09:58:44 |
| K900 | It may not be compatible at all | 09:58:48 |
| K900 | Or it may not be discoverable | 09:58:56 |
| K900 | And generally loading mismatched gstreamer plugins is probably a bad idea | 09:59:18 |
| AssertInequality | weird thing is, the same exact proton version, same game, same prefix, worked flawlessly before the 25.05 update | 10:00:36 |
| AssertInequality | that's why I thought something might've changed | 10:01:06 |
| K900 | Could be that plugins updated from compatible to incompatible | 10:01:09 |
| K900 | Assuming it even picks up ambient plugins | 10:01:18 |
| AssertInequality | yeah... | 10:01:20 |
| K900 | Try getting some logs out of gstreamer maybe | 10:01:35 |
| AssertInequality | I'll tinker a bit and get back if I find anything useful | 10:02:39 |

 m1cr0man | Hey folks. Has anyone successfully used protontricks (installed via programs.steam.protontricks.enable = true;) to alter a prefix? I get tons of warnings about "Unknown file arch" and using a 64-bit wineprefix. Ultimately, I'm trying to add dotnet48 and that's failing. | 12:38:13 |

| K900 | It'll spam those a bunch and then work | 13:31:05 |
| K900 | I believe that's a known issue? | 13:31:10 |
| K900 | idk | 13:31:11 |
| K900 | I really hope there is no one, but if anyone is running Mesa 25.1.2 on a really old base with RDNA4, it'll probably explode | 15:17:41 |
