Blank white screen in the OpenDeck GUI using an Nvidia GPU

[Danie10]

I did a new installation of the git package from AUR because the non-git version did not build. I already have the udev rules setup as I've been using other Streamdeck software. I did also try reloading the udev rules, and I unplugged my second Streamdeck.

When I start this app up, I just get a blank grey window. There is no log file created yet I see.

If I start it from the command line this is the output:

Do you have an Nvidia GPU? Please try using the WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER environment variable (WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER=1 opendeck).

Yes I do have Nvidia. Ok thanks Ill try that and report back.

Great thanks that sorted out the problem. App is showing buttons fine, but although my Stream Decks are recognised and their button presses show on the app screen, there is no display on the deck's buttons. Brightness is set to max.

BTW yes impressive selection of plugins - would be nice tho to have a popup or something giving some help about what they are and what functions they have, before installing.

Some guides like Obsidian plugin, have the help text truncated so you can't see the rest of the sentence.

there is no display on the deck's buttons.

Someone else had the same issue today, I'll let you know when there's a fix.

@Danie10 I've got a Stream Deck Mini of my own now, and the issue where the deck's buttons are blank is fixed in v2.1.0.
