The shell drops its own player: BackgroundMedia is image-only, and the
lock loads Owe.LockFeedSurface through a Loader, so a system without the
module shows no lock video instead of losing the whole lock screen. The
feed pauses per output when the panel blanks or power saver turns on.
The lock view keeps its still effect path and darkens the feed for
legibility. QtMultimedia and the shell video pause policy are gone, and
the base package list requires owe and owe-lockfeed instead.
The desktop background no longer plays videos. OWE owns video
backgrounds, and the shell layer stays empty behind one. The shell keeps
stills, which OWE hands back to it.
Remove the desktop video pause plumbing that only existed to stop an
unseen player: the lock, idle, and battery service lookups, the
per-output fullscreen check, the first-screen audio opt-in, and the audio
output in BackgroundVideo. The lock screen keeps its own silent playback.
Update the background tests, the manual, and the package note.
The background plugin now watches for the OWE daemon socket. While OWE is
running, the desktop yields video playback to it and the shell keeps
stills. The lock screen keeps its own playback.
This lets Omarchy cooperate with OWE without OWE editing shell.json, so
the engine can ship as a package.
Add a package-list note that owe-wallpaper-engine must be added once it is
packaged.
Clicking the keyboard layout widget switches one device, chosen by
filtering the seat through UNTYPED_KEYBOARDS and then taking whichever
survivor sits furthest through the layout list. That filter has to
recognise every non-keyboard by name, and a laptop registers far more as
a keyboard than it lists.
On a Dell XPS 14, Hyprland reports ten keyboards and one of them is a
keyboard. The filter catches three of the other nine, leaving vendor
hotkey blocks (intel-hid-events, intel-hid-5-button-array,
dell-privacy-driver, dell-wmi-hotkeys) and two HID endpoints ahead of
at-translated-set-2-keyboard, which sorts last. Every click switches
hid-sdw:...-consumer-control instead, so the label cycles convincingly
while typing never changes. Device order is stable across polls, so it
is deterministic rather than a race, and needs no pre-existing bad state.
Switch every keyboard holding the same layout list instead, naming an
absolute index. "next" advances each device from wherever it sits, so a
seat that has already drifted apart stays drifted and merely inverts;
one index converges it in a single click, and a seat in lockstep leaves
the reading nothing to disagree about. Keyboards given their own
kb_layout hold a different list and are left alone, since an index into
this list would not mean the same layout to them.
The evdev KEY bitmap would separate these cleanly - the real keyboard
emits 167 keys, the pseudo-devices at most 19 - but hyprctl devices
reports no capability information, so the switch is taken out from
behind the name filter rather than the filter being lengthened.
