[Bug 56935] New: Softube VST plugins are not drawing their UI
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56935 Bug ID: 56935 Summary: Softube VST plugins are not drawing their UI Product: Wine Version: 9.12 Hardware: x86-64 URL: https://www.softube.com/ OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: dwmapi Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: notasas(a)gmail.com CC: jzeng(a)codeweavers.com Regression SHA1: f397807415b4807aeabac7243a13a15599008ee7 Distribution: --- The plugin UI never updates, it's window is cleared with black on startup and then it just shows the remains of anything that was ever drawn over it, like unrelated windows. With the commit is reverted everything redraws normally. Softube provides a free plugin that reproduces the issue ("Saturation Knob"), but sadly it's not very straightforward to set it up. First you need some DAW software what can run windows VST plugins through wine, like lmms. Then Softube doesn't provide it's plugins directly but insists on installing them through their bloated downloader, which then insists to install several licensing services. I could not get it to work through wine and used a windows vm for that part. Once you get the plugin dll however everything works through wine, including "activation" (even for a free plugin) except that the UI is not updating. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

Could you submit a +dwmapi,+loaddll log? Thanks.
Thanks. I'm happy to do this, but I'm not sure how to use those flags. Are there any instructions for getting the right log? -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Thanks for the information! So the application needs DwmFlush() to be implemented or at least improve the current stub. I read through the conversation in MR! 6006, looks like DwmFlush() isn't a thing we can really implement before implementing DWM compositor behaving[1]. Paul also has a patch for improving the stub in https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/2463, if that one also works for a real-world application (e.g. Softube VST plugins), perhaps we can try to get that one upstream?

Yes it works, when I sent my patch I simply wasn't aware of his work. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I couldn't get 2463 to merge nicely, and i don't have a lot of time atm, so i tested 6006 and it builds and works perfectly. Softube vst3 plugins now seem to work properly in Bitwig. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
