Crash on start when discord soundboard is used on a button

I have used OpenDeck for months without problem (Aside for not being able to change the button images, but that's beside the point here). Since a few weeks back OpenDeck crashes as soon as the buttons are loaded. without any error. Nothing in the system journal or the dedicated OpenDeck log. ...
Solution:
in any case its pretty clear that its my system thats the problem i think, so you can close this issue. Thanks alot for the help!...

Update to 2.7.0 makes the deck go black

I updated the app to 2.7.0 (deb), all went well. After reboot, all icons on the StreamDeck-console are gone (all are black). OpenDeck shows its connected to the Deck. Within the app (2.7.0) all seems okay. Running Ubuntu 25.10 KDE Plasma 6 Wayland. Find attached opendeck.log (fresh log, after deleted the previous one). tokio-runtime-error?

Error Report Linux Media Plugin

Just a forward from NEO from Matrix DM: Linux Mint 22.1 Cinnamon X11, OD 2.6.1 Linux Media Plugin 1.2.0 Behavior observed: When playing a song and selecting either repeat-1 or repeat all through the media plugin (for example Spotify Flatpak or Gapless audio player Flatpak) and then pausing the song through the media plugin, the 'Repeat Button' of the media plugin turns grey even though the repeat-1 or repeat-all is still active. Behavior expected: The Repeat Button of the Media Plugin should stay on either Repeat-1 or Repeat-All regardless of pause/unpause toggling....

Stream Deck neo Support

Hej there! I have the Stream Deck Neo, the Main Buttons working fine with Open Deck but I don't understand how I can create more pages and also: Is it possible to use the little Display and the the buttons left/right of it? I'm on Fedora 43 with KDE Plasma right now. Wasn't able to find something especially about the Neo here and on the Web in combination with Open Deck....
Solution:
For the Streamdeck Neo Screen and touch buttons you can see https://discord.com/channels/1143819637897834571/1143819638732505130/1434487732423626842

Input Simulation does not output desired char and Freezes Application

I having problems trying to output these chars: ! @ # " AND upper case chars, AND sometimes my attemps to find the right config FREEZES the application. IE: this [t("!")] ouputs >> 1 In a Using lsb_release:...
Solution:
you can do this with a 1 instead of a !, so it's shift+1 = ! ([k(Shift, p),k(uni('1')),k(Shift, r)]) unfortunately for any further fixes you'll have to report the issue to enigo as input sim is outside the scope of our project edit: although, about the freezing, try v2.7.1 as it has a newer enigo version with nice fixes for linux...

Theme Consistency with GTK/Adwaita

Good afternoon, I'm using the OpenDeck Flatpak instead of the AUR version and I was tinkering around with Theme settings in the application. I was curious on which environment variables would allow me to rope in OpenDeck's color/window theme similar to my other Flatpak applications using GTK/Adwaita settings. I followed the instructions from this following thread for my other Flatpak Apps: https://discuss.kde.org/t/simple-hack-to-tinting-theming-libadwaita-gtk4-apps-in-kde-plasma/29444...
Solution:
so to theme the title bar you will need GTK3 themes

Error message everytime I try to install opendeck via AUR package.

Hello, I wanted to know why I keep getting an error every time I try to install opendeck? I have cachyos and when I used Sudo paru -S opendeck I just end up with an error I get "error cannot install AUR packages as root"...
Solution:
Not an Opendeck issue, but paru is supposed to be run without root. (As all AUR Helpers normally)

Some apps from Elgato Marketplace gives this error when trying to install plugins.

It seems some of the plugins have changed how the manifest's are structured maybe, is there a work around somewhere for this?
Solution:
as of right now yes. But If I remember correctly, Q1 next year, everything will be starting to be drmed

Opendeck not detecting Mirabox 293

Hi, I installed Opendeck to use my Mirabox 293, but it doesn't get detected, I have the plugin installed.
Solution:
@ElAlfaLaBestia All mirabox issues should be in #mirabox-ajazz-unofficial. I don't think the 293 is supported yet, only the 293S
