KDE plasma 6 breaking display portal[OBS and GPU screen recorder]

[Wayturns]

I’m using nobara 41
and when I try to record a specific window using gpu screen recorder or obs through display portals it basically freezes the app.

issue is specific to kde and does not happen on other DE like gnome etc.

Hi! Just to check, are these full screen applications that you’re trying to record?

I’m asking as, if so, it sounds like the same situation as folks in this thread:

Screen Sharing Freezes Fullscreen Applications

When I record or screenshare a fullscreen application, the source application freezes if focused. I first noticed when trying to stream on vesktop. The game I’m trying to stream freezes. If I go back to vesktop it looks normal, but freezes again once I focus back on the game. Playing the game in windowed mode prevents this. But it’s not just games, it’s anything. I shared my browser window and it was fine, but then my browser froze if I forced it to be fullscreen. And it’s not just vesktop. …

So can confirm it happens in Fullscreen and windowed[borderless] but in normal borderless does not happen
