Doubts about desktop streaming #183

I'm currently running the wolf container with a Fedora as the host OS, and I would like to stream and capture it's desktop so I went through the documentation but it generate some doubts on me:

  • It says that for streaming Wayland desktop I could try pipewiresrc but, is this something that has been tested?

  • The current example for desktop sharing use avfvideosrc that as pipewiresrc is a plugin for gstreamer, do set it as source in the app list initializes it when launched or do I have to set them up before.

  • Are this plugins preinstalled in the container? I couldn't find them so I guess they don't but...

Thanks :D

The docs are definitely a tad outdated on this front, whilst it's technically possible to stream the desktop via Gstreamer. This is definitely outside the scope for Wolf.
So much so that we always encourage to use Sunshine for that, why would you want to use Wolf instead?

what a pity :/

I wanted to use it containerized to have the flexibility to being able to deploy it easily anywhere and have it in an isolated environment.

Thank you for your fast reply :D
