Valve has tested 'thousands' for the Steam Deck, 60 currently Verified

They are using GStreamer.

Proton does not use your system libraries, it uses the Soldier runtime, Breaking out of the container and finding suitable system libraries for video would probably both be hard and something of a compatibility nightmare.

They could have licensed a proprietary H264 plugin for GStreamer but seems to have decided not to. This solution with re-encoding the videos does seem more cumbersome but it's probably better in the long run.

I'm just excited there still are new single player FPS to be excited about!

Also, they totally need to add some effects to have the Roomba smear blood all over the floor when its done killing - to make it officially dope!

Quoting: BeamboomI purchased a hotas a while ago to play with Elite Dangerous - but I never got it to work. Steam didn't detect it.
Did you have to install some special software to get it to work or was it detected by the Steam client right away?
Try disabling Steam Input for the game.

I had a similar problem with a racing wheel and a specific game and this made it work.

It's a fantastic project, but, I think, desperately in need of a better name!

Quoting: Nociferwhy have you (the Bottles devs) seen fit to re-invent the wheel and opt for a new, custom system for installing external requirements instead of using good ole Winetricks?

But there is no description for runners like what the hell is CAFFE wine? what is VANIGLIA WINE?
Read The F...ine Manual?

"Caffe is a powerful runner that came with a large set of patches and improvements for Gaming and Software.

Vaniglia (Vanilla) is a clean runner as its name suggests. Apply only wine-staging patches and a modern theme created by Joshua Ashton.

The Proton runner (developed by Valve and improved/offered by GloriousEggroll in the GE custom version) is a much more complex version of Wine and is suitable for the most modern games.
It contains several patches for specific gaming titles support, implements OpenVR support and integrates dxvk (installable on wine from the bottle preferences page)."
