Qmmp works quite bad on Wayland, it's interface doesn't even scale as it should and you cannot resize the window.
Also, if you insist on using KDE Wayland when it's not ready, you can configure Qmmp to use the "Simple User Interface" (which many people prefer anyway). You should also open a bug with KDE and report this issue so they can fix.
It works fine with KDE Wayland.
Qmmp on KDE X11 works flawlessly.Last edited by gbcox; 09-08-2019, 11:53 AM.

I think they dropped this idea. We have Falkon, Dolphin, Okular, Gwenview etc.
I wish they would change some older names to new. For example I don't like name "KSysGuard". "KDE System Monitor" would be better name.
And I agree on KSysGuard: that's the worst KDE app name IMHO.

I was under the impression that the official browser for KDE was now Falkon, which is quite good. IMO the main thing that is holding back Falkon adoption is that qt webengine still doesn't support chrome extensions - and most people want their extensions. On the application front they should have long ago replaced JuK with QMMP - just from the fact that JuK goes years without any updates and QMMP is a extremely active project. They should also adopt CopyQ as their clipboard manager for the same reason.

I know there was that backbuffer queue length issue with DXVK, but you can't make it work with some native Vulkan games like Doom.
Code:export MESA_VK_WSI_PRESENT_MODE=fifo

Checkout the change history for JuK compared to Qmmp and you can see the years of neglect (which is a problem with other KDE apps also). The poster child for this was Konqueror - and finally it has been replaced with Falkon. Have you tried Qmmp, if you want a plain interface, change the settings to "Simple User Interface" - which is what I use. Those who prefer winamp skins can choose to use that.
QMMP is too spartan IMHO and doesn't look as slick as JuK, even when only comparing it to the Simple User Interface.
