Omarchy

ProbeLabs65 findings · 95 requirements

A proof layer — requirements, tests and verified fixes — for two of Omarchy's subsystems: the application menu (launcher scripts, QML model, JSONC config, search and selection) and the lock screen (lock scripts, QML, PAM authentication). Scope is deliberately limited to those components of omacom/omarchy; the rest of the distribution is not covered.

[Feature Request] Improve transparency rules for video streaming websitesrevision 1 · captured 2026-10-04 11:27 UTC via poll

Description

The current transparency configuration could be enhanced for video streaming platforms. While there are existing rules for certain applications in system.conf https://github.com/basecamp/omarchy/blob/bd2eddbab403001dc9758337860bc4ed7f9650dc/default/hypr/apps/system.conf#L17-L18, video streaming websites would benefit from full opacity to improve the viewing experience.

Problem

Currently, video streaming platforms inherit the default transparency rules, which can make video content appear washed out or harder to see clearly. This affects the overall user experience when watching videos.

Proposed Solution

Add specific window rules for popular video streaming platforms to ensure full opacity:

# Video streaming platforms - full opacity for better viewing experience
windowrule = opacity 1.0 1.0, title:.*YouTube.*
windowrule = opacity 1.0 1.0, title:.*Twitch.*
windowrule = opacity 1.0 1.0, title:.*Kick.*
windowrule = opacity 1.0 1.0, title:.*Netflix.*
windowrule = opacity 1.0 1.0, title:.*Prime Video.*
windowrule = opacity 1.0 1.0, title:.*Disney\+.*

Alternative Implementation

Using windowrulev2 for more precise matching:

# Video streaming - full opacity
windowrulev2 = opacity 1.0 1.0, title:.*YouTube.*
windowrulev2 = opacity 1.0 1.0, title:.*Twitch.*
windowrulev2 = opacity 1.0 1.0, title:.*Kick.*
windowrulev2 = opacity 1.0 1.0, title:.*(Netflix|Prime Video|Disney\+).*

Benefits

  • Improved video quality: Full opacity ensures videos are displayed with optimal clarity
  • Better user experience: No transparency interference during video consumption
  • Consistent with media consumption: Aligns with the expectation that media content should be fully opaque

Current: YouTube with default transparency rules applied

Additional Context

This enhancement would complement the existing system rules and provide a better out-of-the-box experience for users who frequently watch video content. The suggested platforms cover the most popular streaming services:

  • YouTube: Most popular video platform
  • Twitch: Popular for live streaming
  • Kick: Growing streaming platform
  • Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+: Popular subscription streaming services

File Location

The rules should be added to: default/hypr/apps/system.conf or a new dedicated file like default/hypr/apps/streaming.conf
