Discord/Vesktop Flatpak rich pressence with Tidal-hifi flatpak.

[corngoblin]

Is there something I can set within flatsteel to allow the Tidal-hifi flatpak to display what's playing in a discord/vesktop flatpak?

I know there is a weird fix posted here #314, but there has to be a cleaner way to do this no?

I've been monkeying with settings in flatsteel all last night trying to get it to work. Lol

The appimage works if this is ran.

ln -sf $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/{.flatpak/dev.vencord.Vesktop/xdg-run,}/discord-ipc-0     

Right now, this is what it shows without anything done except the above command.

 flatpak run com.mastermindzh.tidal-hifi

Thank you for your time.

Please test this flatpak to see if it works on vesktop (and maybe also still works on discord) as I myself don't really use flatpaks

Same issue.

Thank you for taking the time to try and solve it.

The problem is that the dependency used by tidal-hifi (xhayper/discord-rpc) only looks for discord-ipc-0 in the folder $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/app/com.discordapp.Discord/ when it detects it's being used inside a Flatpak.

https://github.com/xhayper/discord-rpc/blob/70f0c0480502c79c851162bf64693a14dcf061d4/src/transport/IPC.ts#L56

We could file a request to add a check for $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/discord-ipc-0 and we can symlink the Vesktop file or any other client's to $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/discord-ipc-0. Sadly that still requires manual intervention but I feel the maintainer could reject the request if we ask for a specific client folder. What do you think?

Not related to solving the problem with tidal-hifi, but might be interesting for anyone following this issue.

You can have a Discord status for tidal-hifi in Vesktop (Flathub) on Linux with my app Music Presence:
https://musicpresence.app / https://github.com/ungive/discord-music-presence

Right now there is no stable release for Linux (I'm in the process of implementing that), but we've started testing Music Presence for Linux today and I came across this issue too (sandboxed Discord via snap/flathub not working). Fixed it in my own fork of discord/discord-rpc (C++ version):

• Added support for vanilla Discord and Discord client mods (like Vencord) installed via Snap/Flathub:
  ungive/discord-rpc@d32867f

If you want to test this right now, feel free to join the Discord server: https://discord.gg/musicpresence. There's a pinned message in the #linux channel with instructions how to run it.
