The google meet grid view was working perfectly uptil yesterday but today suddenly, it has stopped working. I have even tried to reinstall the grid view several times but to no avail. Please fix it as soon as possible.
same problem ,until yesterday work's perfectly...is about 10 hours from now.How can I do?
same problem. Google Meet provided native support to grid view (up to 16 users). Probably they change HTML structure and extension right now have problems.
Same problem. We have been using it for the past two months and love it! But, we need it for a schoolwide meeting tomorrow, and the grid view is not working. I had v.1.31, and the other three people in my test meeting had an older version. Then I signed out of the meeting, came back in, and I had the older version again but one of the other three people suddenly had v.1.31. It was almost as if we could not all three have it at the same time. Members could not see themselves (even when include myself in grid view was checked), and sometimes other participants could not be seen at all. At one point, the participants videos were stacked on top of each other in a layout that I have not ever seen.
I had the same problem, but reinstalling to the latest release v1.31 has fixed it for me. Does this extension not automatically upgrade itself?
Either way, I'm glad that I was able to fix the problem.
If you installed it from the chrome web store it should eventually auto-update. Please also ensure you only have one copy of grid view installed at chrome://extensions/ as that can also cause issues
Thank you! I had been uninstalling and reinstalling. It turns out there were two copies of grid view...One was showing up in my extension bar as a lot of boxes, and the other was four boxes. I had deleted the multiple boxes one, but the 4 box one kept making things glitchy. I think it works now! Thank you so much! It is super amazing that you created this extension--thank you!!!
I have the very same problem. But I do not have any other extensions. How do I check that I am using v1.31?
You can see which version you're using in the grid view menu or by visiting chrome://extensions/ and enabling "developer mode"
It says that I am using 1.31.0 So what else could be the problem that is making this happen?
@Fugiman i don't know if it's google's silent update or the new version, but the gridview plugin is broken. Only 5 participants are showing, stacked ttb in the y direction, 100% stretched over the x axis.
Already tried reinstalling, no result.
It seems commit 932ae836705bf6686aa95b8699e64b1824df92df (version 1.26) is the last one working on chrome v81.0.4044.138 and macos v10.15.1
edit: version 1.30 is partly working
After I updated Chrome it worked again. Worth a try!
What version of chrome are you running now? I just updated to 83.0.4103.61, still not working

Are you using the v1.31.0?

Yes, and also tried disabeling all other extensions. Still no luck.
Thanks @Fugiman ! The reason was a new extension with the same name inside of my extension collection. Strange!
Good to hear the extension is working for some of you!
After some digging, i think i found the problem.
The condition in https://github.com/Fugiman/google-meet-grid-view/blob/018f6e25c68e34825ebcd89fdd850a53d33d4baa/grid.user.js#L781
is never met. Only four hooks are found, the "reflow trigger" is never found in my browser.
I assume the function we are looking for is not matching to the regex, at least not in my browser.. How do you know what function to look for?
@Xinne I was about to reply and then you posted the root cause - Thank you so much!
My guess at this point is that v1.26 works for you since it's the last release that has a separate "UI loop". Later versions do all the work in the rendering pipeline hook which never gets set in v1.31 if it doesn't find the reflow trigger. I'm not sure why it's not finding it and you'll experience minor issues without it, but for now I can work around it.
The hooks are based on me manually reading the minified Google Meet source code, so it's very possible they fail for some people. I'm going to make a slight tweak to that one and see if it helps.
I'm also going to change the hook code to match v1.30 which should avoid this issue. Please let me know if v1.32 fixes the issue for you. Thanks!
Buenas tardes
Me pasa lo que a ustedes. Yo trabajo desde un Chromebook, por tanto siempre estoy conectado a Google Chrome y por tanto se me actualiza solo. He buscado actualizaciones, pero al parecer mi Google meet, me lo actualiza la empresa. La vista del Grid me parece de la siguiente manera:
He buscado el archivo de actualización y me ha saltado el siguiente:
google-meet-grid-view-master.zip
Si fuera otro el archivo, por favor comuniquenmelo.
Gracias.

@LibraryLadyNOLA - the one with the 4-box icon was an early, unofficial version and is no longer being updated regularly. The one with the 9-box icon is the official, regularly updated version. You should probably swap those extensions.
@Gass-by-Revi What version are you running? It should be visible in the extension menu. The zip file you linked doesn't look like the contents of the extension, it looks like the git repo itself, so I'm unsure what you mean by it. That said, it contains v1.31, the latest version is v1.32.
Please let me know if v1.32 does not solve your issue.
@Fugiman ahi aparece la versión y demás, no sé si será necesario algo más. ¿Dónde se encuentra la última versión? Es decir, desde donde la descargo.
Gracias

I think you are using an unofficial extension, go to the Chrome Web store and download the one from Chris Gamble
Latest version is up here --> https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/google-meet-grid-view/kklailfgofogmmdlhgmjgenehkjoioip?hl=en

Creo que está utilizando una extensión no oficial, vaya a la tienda web de Chrome y descargue la de Chris Gamble
vale, muchas gracias
La última versión está aquí ---> https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/google-meet-grid-view/kklailfgofogmmdlhgmjgenehkjoioip?hl=en
gracias, pero desde ahi no me deja
@Gass-by-Revi But also be sure to uninstall the old extension, as it has been reported that having both installed causes other issues.
