[BUG] Unable to play audio from saved history items, even though files exist locally

Open vpsone opened this issue 1 month ago • 4 comments

Bug Description

I’m unable to play the audio from my saved history items, but I discovered that the audio files are stored in the /home/user/.local/share/com.pais.handy/recordings/ directory on my Linux machine. I suspect the issue might be caused by an incorrect audio file path.

System Information

App Version: v0.5.4

Operating System: Fedora 42 kde plasma wayland

CPU: AMD Ryzen 3 5300U

GPU: AMD Radeon Graphics

Thanks, yeah this is a known issue and would like to fix as well. Thank you for officially reporting it.

It's apparently the same as this: https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/issues/3725 It's caused by limitations for the asset protocol in webkit2gtk (used by Tauri on Linux).

There seems to be a workaround proposed here: https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/issues/3725#issuecomment-3026425980

But hopefully that PR could fix the issue. It mentions video, so I'm not sure but maybe it will also solve it for audio streaming: https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/pull/14402

@dsebastien have you had any luck with implementing any of the proposed fixes by chance?

I'll be taking a look at this when I can, I don't have a Linux machine at the moment to test with, hopefully in the next week or so I will have

I'm experimenting with those. I'll report back The desktop-audio-proxy didn't play nice with Vite, so no luck on that front. I feel like the best hope is the open Tauri PR
