For the wrapped image, try starting swww-daemon with swww-daemon --format |
Yep. that seems to be the solution. However, playing around with the

After a short glance on the README, I reckon that similar issue already touched upon in #233. I didn't see it since it was closed, although the issue persists. Is the currently proposed workaround, using |
This is expected, very few compositors in my experience support
Interesting. Thanks for that. I really do think this is like, a Mesa bug at this point, but I could be wrong. Because it only fails in certain hardware or configurations. For example, do you by any chance have an integrated display (like in a notebook)?
Let's leave this open for now, I will rename it though to better reflect what's going on. The reason I closed the previous issue was that, while working on fractional scaling support (note I had never succeeded in reproducing the issue up to that point), I came across this same problem myself, and thought "ah, so THIS is what everyone's been facing". After I fixed it, I thought the problem would have been fixed for everyone, and closed the previous issue. No one said anything, and I was happy about it. Now I realize no one said anything probably because everyone added EDIT: the fact that the compositor crashes further corroborates my hypothesis this is a full-blown mesa bug, now that I think about it. |

In a way, It is actually a good culture, for it fosters users that are not deterred by workarounds and creative solutions. But in some cases, such culture made the people who work on the codes unable to see the problems, as it grew in complexities down the line.
Yep, on a 5 years old Ideapad 330-15IGM w/ Intel Celeron N4000 and Intel UHD 600 iGPU. I also run Cheers |

I am running the latest git version from AUR, but the 0.9.5-1 from AUR also have the same issue.
The wallpaper is "warped" and if I change the image with animation the whole WM, in my case Hyprland, will crash. Regarding the "warped" image, I also tried to use swaybg, and the issue is gone. So maybe it is a problem with swww.
Currently I am using swww as it is and set the
--transition none
for no animation.Thanks
