AWFULL TO SCREEN SHARE

[Eefreeth]

Hi there I try out webcord because I can't screen share on normal "Discord app" because Wayland on Linux EndeavourOs, can´t do anything about there but I was so happy when on forums read about WEBCORD, but... The audio when I screenshare is garbage everyone listen themselves throught the broadcast so, the experience its AWFULL and frustrating because we all wanna share some activity on but can't do because the double mic audio and imput hisses, I try sevral times toi fix that but its all about the broadcast, any fix on the future?

Since Chromium uses audio monitor for default device for capturing the system audio, this is expected to happen. I couldn't find any way to filter out the audio in Electron API right now, so the only way is to create a virtual sink, pipe it to your audio output device and select apps that use it for their audio output and which you want to capture.

Yeah, there's no simple way right now, but if you set this up once, you'll have that sink working not only for WebCord, but for any other applications as well. As of GUI methods, some people suggested on the Discord server that OBS might be a way to achieve this, although I'm not sure how. There's definitely way to do this in standard, CLI command chain way, but that'll need from you some googling on how to setup sinks on PulseAudio.

EDIT/UPDATE: A few commands to temporarily add a virtual sink and a loopback device:

pactl load-module module-null-sink sink_name=virtual
pactl load-module module-loopback sink=loop

You can then use GUI tools like pavucontrol to set the loopback input to the monitor of virtual sink and set output to the desired real device (so you can still hear those applications' audio). Then you can selectively change the apps to use this virtual sink as their output audio device, and change the captured audio by WebCord to be the monitor of virtual sink.
