@jojumaxx im so glad you suggested this this is the direction i think im gonna go

@projectmoon said: Though in general, I don't see many payment sites asking for your password at time of check-out, at least once you're at the payment screen. eh, maybe I didn't pay attention on this and only sms-code is sufficient. I have to check it. I'll have to dig into waydroid, but maybe some time in the future - hey, it is not so begginer stuff, right? Thanks for help and nice chat!

@pparent no :(, the battery now is ok, I will monitor it for a couple of days and I ll post here the results. Feel free to ask me any question, I ll monitor the topic. PS I just remembered something: when I updated your app, at the same time I updated the OS. I was waiting for the OS to be downloaded without leaving from the update app. When it finished I clicked on the button next to it and before I exit the update app, the phone automatically restarted to update the OS. It restarted twice, maybe that was the issue, because after that I immediately noticed the battery drainage.

@developerbayman We agree on that point. It’s a game-changer for projects carried out in people’s spare time.

@sahirul not yet, but is planned. For now, qr code only

@pparent said: this is kind of hard yes

@Kadafi err, @arubislander asked you to download, while you clicked on 'install'. That's not the same thing and clicking to download allows precisely to test if the mere act of downloading is blocked or if the downloading works fine but UT crashes while installing. Once the file is downloaded (a file with extension of '.click') it's possible to install it by navigating to the folder and selecting it. UT asks you then to open with the store. This separates the 2 operations that the standard store installer bundles into one (for convenience, but it makes debugging more difficult).

@jojumaxx I figured that was the case! I've also edited the topic title, for better searchability.

@arubislander said: Although, to be fair the creator of the WhatsNew app has taken measure to suspend the app when it looses focus as well I've not done that specifically in whatsnew. What happens is that normally when an electron app is not anymore in foreground it goes into a "throttling" mode meant to keep operating the website but with lower resources. This is a feature from chromium. That being said I have no idea why XWayland/electron apps don't get suspended by default. For Signal UT or Whatsnew it is handy to get background notifications though. The behaviour encountered by @smobilesoft (high CPU usage) is not normal , I've not been able to observe it myself, and it seems since he reinstalled the app it has gone. So this is a bit strange.

@messayisto It's not that there is only "system", it is that the combobox, or ( "<select>" in html ), i.e the element that allows you to chose between several options, does not work, but it is the case in most XWayland apps, in UT.

found a fatal bug in the container launch ill have to go over it its my day off when i wake up ill prob fix it actually i forgot to inckude some important files

@archie3d It uses the system libsdl2-dev from the ubuntu-sdk-20.04 clickable framework and for that framework the SDL2 package is 2.0.10+dfsg1-3 on Focal/arm64 ...i tend to find even if your building for a newer version of UT you still have to use older packages because there is a break it seems in the versions and packaging being updated? ..idk i do know every time i try to build with newer repos something breaks ....

@arubislander said: @pparent Where was this announced? Well "annonced" maybe was not the correct term, but it was at least mentioned as a possibility here: https://www.phoronix.com/news/Fairphone-6-Linux

OnePlus phones are very hard to brick. They can be recovered using the msmDownloadtool usually included with the image on the UT device's webpage. If it isn't, xda-developers has them, for every OnePlus model.

@Kadafi You're welcome! I'm glad to hear that it helped.

@arubislander that makes the most sense i was so confused like "how?" ...that makes a ton of sense also my settings lol

@Moem Yes, its light and very thin! But I remember now why I have'nt used it for a long time. The main camera is broken. Found a sparepart for 15$. So a bit of surgery is required. Another thing that is much easier on older hw.. According to the "Features & usability" chart, there are a few issues. But everything seems to work fine for me, charging, gps, microphone even the notification led. thumbs up

@Shadowbird2468 It was proven possible, but, due to different processor architectures, running desktop apps on mobile phone would require emulation layer. And, due to most games were made for windows, it requires running it through x86 Wine. And, due to differences in graphics APIs, it also requires using OpenGL to GLES translation where it is present. In fact some progress has been made at this direction. Several emulators exist for Android (and might work in Waydroid as well), there's at least one application related to that in OpenStore, and there's already Steam distribution for ARM in snap store. Don't know about graphics api translation though.

@arubislander so on the regular desktop version its a normal ubuntu boot stack then it hands off into the UT rootfs .....still not done ...taking a break on that for sanity rn

@gpatel-fr thank you for the mkv samples! @gpatel-fr said: this 'Microsoft MPEG-4 4.2' is probably the same thing as your '10 bit support'. not really, the issue is definitely the bit depth of the video, correlated with the format profile. Higher definition videos such as H.264 AVC "High 10" profile (using mediainfo) : Video ID : 1 Format : AVC Format/Info : Advanced Video Codec Format profile : **High 10@L3.1** Format settings : CABAC / 5 Ref Frames Format settings, CABAC : Yes Format settings, Reference frames : 5 frames Codec ID : V_MPEG4/ISO/AVC Duration : 46 s 0 ms Width : 1 024 pixels Height : 576 pixels Display aspect ratio : 16:9 Frame rate mode : Constant Frame rate : 24.000 FPS Color space : YUV Chroma subsampling : 4:2:0 Bit depth : **10 bits** Scan type : Progressive Writing library : x264 core 165 r3222 b35605a Encoding settings : cabac=1 / ref=5 / deblock=1:0:0 / analyse=0x3:0x113 / me=hex / subme=8 / psy=1 / psy_rd=1.00:0.00 / mixed_ref=1 / me_range=16 / chroma_me=1 / trellis=2 / 8x8dct=1 / cqm=0 / deadzone=21,11 / fast_pskip=1 / chroma_qp_offset=-2 / threads=18 / lookahead_threads=3 / sliced_threads=0 / nr=0 / decimate=1 / interlaced=0 / bluray_compat=0 / constrained_intra=0 / bframes=3 / b_pyramid=2 / b_adapt=1 / b_bias=0 / direct=3 / weightb=1 / open_gop=0 / weightp=2 / keyint=250 / keyint_min=24 / scenecut=40 / intra_refresh=0 / rc_lookahead=50 / rc=crf / mbtree=1 / crf=18.0 / qcomp=0.60 / qpmin=0 / qpmax=81 / qpstep=4 / ip_ratio=1.40 / aq=1:1.00 Default : Yes Forced : No Color range : Limited Color primaries : BT.601 NTSC Transfer characteristics : BT.709 Matrix coefficients : BT.601 To reproduce this, you can use ffmpeg to enforce a higher bit depth on any of these samples: ffmpeg -i test5.mkv -c:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p10le -crf 18 -preset slow -c:a copy test5_10bit.mkv and confirm it does not play on the UT player, despite desktop OSs having no issue playing it (at least that's my experience). It does, as you suggested, play on (libertine) mpv or vlc, so it seems like a limitation of the default player (I'd open a bug on the app repository, but can't seem to find it for the media player).
