[Bug Fix] :: Screen freezing/lags every second when screen sharing (Wayland)

Development Sponsored Work

When sharing screen using the portal my screen stutters every second, I’d love to see this fixed.

Here is a bug report directly related to it:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=471364

I looked into it and found this other bug report which I think is related as when one of my CPU cores isn’t at 100% it doesn’t stutter ever second. (Tested this on multiple Wayland compositors.)

I’m happy to chip in $100 AUD.

I’ve done some further work on figuring out the cause of the issue of this is and I’m pretty sure it has to something to with this commit screencast: Ensure we respect the negotiated framerate (226d8c0a) · Commits · Plasma / KWin · GitLab.

Just sent the money, could you edit your comment or make a new one with the MR so that I can mark that as the solution?
