Gajim - 2024-04-10

cal0pteryx, Looks like there are only 2 plugins listed for "flatpak search gajim". The regular package usually contains more

aura: which one is missing for you, personally?

Now that I implemented dynamic audio input source switching for the recording stuff, I've noticed that I always ever had set the output fixed to autoaudiosink for the player widget and no one ever has complained :D

meson: what kinds of problems might come from that? I don't know what exactly that does.

fjklp, just means that it won't respect your setting for the Audio Output Device. However if you haven't changed the default in Gajim, you wouldn't notice.

honestly, I had never noticed the audio input and audio output device settings

I am not so sure about the UI concept regarding the voice messages: Any suggestions? This is the current state:

Left volume indicator, recording time and maybe two buttons for pausing and sending.

Maybe the popup menu isn't the best idea though.

Also, should the recording be paused when switching chats? Or continue and the recording button be disabled for other chats as long as the recording is running? I would probably go with the first approach. ✏

Hi ppl. How can I change the app which opens images received here on Gajim? Gajim is opening the images with ImageMagick, but I would like to open the images (*.jpg, etc), with other app.

Rebeld: KDE Plasma?

https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/-/wikis/help/gajimfaq#gajim-opens-folderfiles-with-the-wrong-application-linux Fixed in Plasma 6.

meson: nice, finally a fix :D

meson: I don't have a problem with the operating system. This is a Gajim issue. And no, I don't use KDE.

In case of Plasma it was an DE/GTK issue.

meson: I would go with the popover. And approach one: only record while the chat is focused.

meson: I don't even use desktop environments.

So, how can this issue be solved?

meson: I'd like to play a bit regarding the gui. Could you update your MR once it's halfway done? :)

> nice, finally a fix :D cal0pteryx: Also Plasmas's DND issue with GTK apps is fixxed in the upcoming v6.0.4

Nice

cal0pteryx: sure, tomorrow I will push changes

Rebeld: did you do what's suggested in the wiki?

meson: perfect

cal0pteryx: What wiki, and what is suggested in the wiki?

Rebeld: https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/gajim/-/wikis/help/gajimfaq#gajim-opens-folderfiles-with-the-wrong-application-linux Fixed in Plasma 6.

I guess my hint to Plasma was a bit misleading.

It's a general suggestion in the wiki.

cal0pteryx: I already told that I don't use KDE. This is a Gajim issue.

cal0pteryx: So there's no solution?

Did you run the gio mime command?

I know how to configure the file mimeapps.list

Did you or didn't you?

And I have this line, on mimeapps.list file: image/jpeg=geeqie.desktop;

No, I didn't run that command because I don't have KDE...

cal0pteryx: How many more times do I need to tell that I don't run KDE?

And why there are no Gajim developers here? Is this normal?

Gio is not KDE afaik, it's gnome. Gajim is based on gtk

Rebeld: > You can use the gio mime command to verify that the default registered application has been set correctly: `gio mime image/jpeg` https://help.gnome.org/admin/system-admin-guide/stable/mime-types-application-user.html.en

I don't run GNOME either...

So far this worked on every DE where people had problems with wrong mime type associations.

Rebeld, linux distribution follow no particular standard for mime file lists

there are multiple locations where each distribution stores this stuff

this is a typical linux clusterfuck, if your mimelist file is correct then this simply means GTK is not looking at it

your only option is to adapt the config where GTK is look at

and gio is the tool that modifies it in the place where gtk looks

you can run this now and potentially solve your problem, then investigate who is to blame your distribution or the GTK developers

but its definitly not Gajim, because, no we dont implement searching for mimelists on 27 distributions and X platforms

this is the job of a framework like gio, which we use ✏
