Florian Müllner	f266c2ca15	screenshot: Move HAVE_RECORDER check into screencast service ... Some gstreamer plugins require a connection to the display server, so if we end up initializing gstreamer before we are ourselves fully initialized, we may end up with a locked compositor. Avoid this by moving the runtime recorder check into the screencast D-Bus service, so that all gstreamer calls happen out of process. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/5710 Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2519>	2022-11-04 09:51:20 +00:00
Florian Müllner	a8c5d77872	dbusServices/screencast: Install unconditionally ... We currently decide at build time whether to include screencast support, based on whether the required gst/pipewire library headers are installed. That check is imprecise, because having the library headers available at build time doesn't necessarily mean that the libraries are there at runtime, or that the corresponding typelibs are installed. It makes more sense to check the requirements at runtime, so prepare for that by installing the screencast service unconditionally, but bail out early if the dependencies aren't met.

Jonas Ådahl	2b0731ab81	Move screencasting into a separate service process ... Move the screencasting into a separate D-Bus service process, using PipeWire instead of Clutter API. The service is implemented in Javascript using the dbusService.js helper, and implements the same API as was done by screencast.js and the corresponding C code. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/1372	2020-07-31 10:51:12 +02:00
