by Brendan McGrath (＠redmcg) Jan. 23, 2026

Jan. 23, 2026

This fixes seeking within sample grabber by matching Windows functionality. -- v8: mf/tests: Test sample grabber pause and resume. mf/tests: Check contents of sample collection. mf/tests: Test seek with sample grabber whilst ignoring clock. mf/tests: Test samplegrabber flush then seek. mf/tests: Check StreamSinkMarker event. mf/tests: Test sample grabber {Set,Cancel}Timer. mf/tests: Add test for sample grabber seek. https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/9489

[PATCH v5 0/1] MR9719: mfmediaengine/tests: Test we receive a frame before calling Play.
by Brendan McGrath (＠redmcg) Jan. 23, 2026

Jan. 23, 2026

Media Engine on Windows appears to use scrubbing to receive a frame before `IMFMediaEngine::Play` is called. This adds a test to confirm we can receive said frame. -- v5: mfmediaengine/tests: Test we receive a frame before calling Play. https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/9719

[PATCH 0/7] MR9953: opengl32: Move handle allocation to the PE side.
by Rémi Bernon Jan. 23, 2026

Jan. 23, 2026

Introducing a proper separation of client side / unix side objects, similar to what is done in winevulkan, with client side wrappers which we can later use to store some client-specific information such as client extension list, some strings to avoid bogus wow64 string reuse, etc. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/9953

As for what @etaash.mathamsetty said, that makes sense - I will probably work on these if nobody else does but it's fine if someone else wants to work on it because it'll probably take me a while to make working tests for these kind of obscure APIs anyway. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/2044#note_127758

There's several more that AntiCheatExpert requires, you can find a full list here but some of the patches don't work on their own and have a subsequent patch that fixes them: https://dawn.wine/dawn-winery/dwproton/src/branch/main/patches/wine/0003-dna I've tested that those fix Duet Night Abyss, but I haven't tried them with other AntiCheatExpert games; I will test them with Endfield probably later today or tomorrow. While most of these patches clearly just implement missing functions and lead to ACE running the same as it does natively, there's also one that seems to be intended to prevent the anticheat from detecting that the user is on Wine, https://dawn.wine/dawn-winery/dwproton/src/branch/main/patches/wine/0003-dn… which to my understanding is out of scope for normal Wine, but notably other ACE games become more compatible when they detect they are running under Wine; it seems that there's different versions of ACE that have different levels of Wine compatibility. Wuthering Waves uses ACE and their version specifically skips several parts of the anticheat if it detects the user is using Wine, while the version in Duet Night Abyss will probe the user's hardware to see if they have a Steam Deck specifically and disable parts of the anticheat only on Steam Deck devices. I believe Honkai: Star Rail also had a version of ACE for a wh ile that was compatible with Linux, though they removed ACE over a year ago. Honkai Impact 3rd also requires ACE and to my understanding has been reported as playable but I haven't tested it. Other games that are broken according to a search on the Valve GitHub are Infinity Nikki and Fate Trigger: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/9258, https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/8988 -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/2044#note_127755
