Discord and Geforce Now problem
-
In discord i can't watch any stream, because alwalys vivaldi browser is showing black screen. I tried in Chrome there is no problem.
And again, in Geforce Now, i cannot see/watch any stream, again I see black screen. but there is no problem in Chrome.
How can I fix this or when will you fix this ?

Hi, I cant test Discord but I have a free account on Geforce Now.
When do you get a black screen?
Please test this in a private window or the guest view, this except extensions and use the default settings.

@mib2berlin I tried already guest view before the post that I wrote https://puu.sh/JIJDK/db8e801090.png
https://puu.sh/JIJEg/5227b5b5bb.png I can hear the sound of stream but video doesnt exist.

@ptqecr
I am sorry, it seems I cant reach video streams with a free account.
We need another user to test this.Cheers, mib

Any news? Is there anyone to try this?

@ptqecr try to disable hardware acceleration in vivaldi, if still doesn't work do a bug report. Also mention your gpu.
No issues on discord, but on amd so not a good candidate to test your issue.Vivaldi Stable+Snap | Patience Is The Key To Get The Vivaldi Spree | Unsupported Extensions | Github | w11 + Kde Manjaro + Android 13

@Hadden89 I tried already it before posting this problem here. Everything works well in chrome, everything works well in discord app and geforce now app, but doesn't work just in vivaldi. Also a few months ago Discord was normal in Vivaldi.
Probably both Discord and GeforceNow are using same stream system. -
@ptqecr some particular setting in geforce control panel (eg: FXAA and so on), maybe a profile for vivaldi? Windows N edition? Which is the client hints setting in vivaldi options? I think you also already tested installing a standalone

@Hadden89 How can you explain, why this is just working proper in chrome and why not in vivaldi. I didn't change anyting but Vivaldi update/versions. If a problem nvidia graphic card why everything is still normal chrome, discord app and geforce now app, or other browser. Discord is fine in Edge also. I am using additionaly Opera. I can try in Opera but i know it will be normal in opera. Because i can watch some discord's stream, . can't most of all. I guess If you stream in Discord app a selected game window then i cannot watch in Vivaldi, if you stream in a browser selected all window then i can watch that stream. So difference is stream system.

@ptqecr I can't test because I don't have nvidia, but the issue itself can't be investigated if you don't do a report. Might be a vivaldi update bug, but a VB is need to tester/devs which may actually look for that.

I send a report, but there is no response yet.

@ptqecr
Hi, you should get a automated conformation mail after a few minutes, maybe 15 minutes..Cheers, mib
-
@ptqecr If you had added a valid mail address in bug report, you should get a automated mail back. Was sent 2 days ago 00:00 to your hotmail account!
//edit: i checked now:
VB-98123 "In Discord and Geforce Now I can't watch stream. Only showing black video." - Unconfirmed -
So, there is no information that this problem is occuring only me or just vivaldi fault.

https://clouddosage.com/geforce-now-av1/ could this be the problem?

@ptqecr
Hi, a user report issues with AV1 videos on Youtube but with AMD, there is a video linked, maybe you can check this.It take at least a few days until a developer with the knowledge about codecs, streaming and a Nvidia card find the time to test this. If a developer can reproduce it you get a message.

I signed up for a testing account on Geforce Now.
Here's me playing the Lego Brickworks demo in Vivaldi 6.1 Stable, Win10 x64.
So that works, although Vivaldi does have issues with pointer lock and fullscreening stuff, so it's not exactly a smooth experience. But that's not the issue here. The game shows just fine.
For Discord - I have an account, some servers connected, including Vivaldi's server, but I have no experience with streams in Discords and wouldn't know where to find them. All videos in regular channels work just fine, so there's no reason why streams should not work in Vivaldi. There would be more reports.
My guess is one of your many extensions.
Please try the troubleshooting steps, including testing in a clean profile and disabling adblocking/extensions:

@ptqecr said in Discord and Geforce Now problem:
So problem is Vivaldi version.
No, because it works fine in 6.1 for me, also in Windows 10 x64.
Today I downloaded diffrent version and I tried 5.7.2887.3 x64 and it worked.
How do you know that it's the version and not simply that you made a clean install, clean profile and that's why it works, not the older version?
So it's something on your system. And you have to go through the troubleshooting steps. Have you even tried the things I suggested to fix the issue on your system?
