Add a way to turn off other peoples screens-share only for you

Folgen
Rem

I have always wanted this since discord first introduced screen-share. I have a bad laptop so whenever my friends started screen-sharing my game that i have been playing starts to lag, making me force to leave the call because i cant turn it off on my end only. if this was an option i would still be able to talk to my friends and play my games even when my friend is showing their screen with the rest of my friends.

    Yes, please. This is a must-have feature.

    Also let us disable screen share so we don't have to watch it if we have slow internet and just want to talk with people who need to see each other screens (it also makes games lag).

    Another suggestion was to also add an option just to mute it. Adding both of these individually would be great.

    I think this is a great idea. So you aren't forced to look at someone's screen. :p

    Yes! I'm temporarily on a limited data plan and i don't wanna order my friends to stop screen sharing. But instead I had to leave the call.

    Just a simple button as Tomzen said is sorely needed .

    I am a frequent Mobile Discord User and the amount of data that screensharing uses despite not actually displaying anything is absurd. In 2 minutes it used 26.1mb of my data plan, even though the screenshare didn’t even have any audio.

    This means Discord was still downloading the screenshare despite not actually doing anything with it. Please either remove the screenshare feature from Mobile entirely or give us an option to disable it! I don’t want to have to Server Mute my friends just so I can use Discord on the go.

    I used 1 TB of data in 15 days bc my friends share their screen. That's 800 more GB per month than usual and I have to pay 200 dollars in overage fees. Now I cant use discord until there is a way to turn off others screens. I'm not even sharing my own screen

    Just saw this new screen share popup today 03/27/2019, I would like to disable it totally, and not have my avatar popup every time I switch channels. I have no wish to see anyone`s screen or have them see mine. This feature should have  an on/off option with  in user settings. Also I would like the option also on Server Settings to turn this screen sharing sh** totally off in my discord server.

    This needs to be addressed.  Extremely obnoxious is putting it lightly.

    Although, given the way the settings are in the PiP window, I hope disabling PiP doesn't become a NITRO only feature...

    Agreed. This has popped up for a bunch of my friends as well as me. Is there really not a way to turn this off? We are all switching off discord for the in game chat until this is fixed. I think most are just upset that we are forced to have this feature. After today's update is when we all have it now.

    Delete this feature forever. No one asked for this. It's so obnoxious.

    Yes, make this optional please, it's not discord anymore, it's just skype (and no one wants skype)

    This should be and option for user and server with a big ON/OFF button. I for one would like the option to totally disable this on my discord server.

    SO for now if you want to get rid of this, You need to turn off hardware acceleration and re log in.

     

    Go to Your settings 

    go to Appearance

     

    Find section with Hardware acceleration under advanced settings and turn it OFF. 

    It will get rid of that stupid annoying screen share window. Came here cause a friend and myself were annoyed as heck seeing this new window we couldn't get rid of with a simple RIGHT click option or not or somewhere else in settings.

    Actually had this exact issue about 30 minutes ago. Only solution I found was to uninstall Discord completely, then reinstall from their website.

    Go to Voice and Video settings, scroll all the way down to the bottom and choose the Legacy option from "Audio Subsystem"

    I would like to have the option to view only the video stream i'm focused on. It ruins the quality for it when i have to stream the others at the same time.

    Yes, please add this!

    I have quite the beefy PC so it doesn't make me lagg or anything, but it's just ridiculously intrusive that people can just share whatever is on their screen with me without me being able to deny it. Or let me at least make it so that their audio can't be streamed to me, but I can still hear their voice or something.

    It doesn't seem like a difficult thing to implement, a simple "disable screen sharing" button

    Agreed, it's really annoying to tell 6 people they all have to turn their webcams off, because you want to play a game and not want a slideshow because Discord is forcing a video stream.
