Since I am not primarily a Linux user, I cannot help you with this issue, but the friendly makers of GmodPatchTool one their Discord server will certainly be able to assist you.

Here is the link to their Discord server.

I cannot explain why your comments are not being sent.
how to install GModPatchTool with Proton? ...call me crazy, but i couldn't get x86_64 to run on Arch without Proton, and i think the game runs better like this anyway

First of all, friend requests will be ignored, and posting comments in multiple places won't make it any better.

Now to your problem: the problem is known, but I don't know the solution to fix it... (This is also mentioned in the description.


Possible solution
- Enter “mat_dxlevel 90” in the console
- Switch to x86-64 Beta Branch (see description)
- Update your graphics driver
- Disable all add-ons except Media Player (for testing)
- Use the GmodPatchTool/CEF Codec Fix (see description)
Hi, when I launch YouTube, I get a white screen, and it doesn't launch at all. Can you tell me how to fix this error? I've tried all the versions, but it doesn't work.

I cannot reproduce this error on either x86-64 bit Beta or the normal branch, regardless of whether GmodPatchTool is used or not.

This note is already included in the description, stating that not all YouTube videos are guaranteed to work, partly because embedding is prohibited by the video creator.

When I try to play a youtube video it says "Unrecognized feature: 'web-share'.
Failed to execute 'postMessage' on 'DOMWindow': The target origin provided ('https://www.youtube-nocookie.com') does not match the recipient window's origin (' https://gm-mediaplayer.pone.party') .
"
I'm on x86-64 branch...

Unfortunately, I can no longer help with this, but I always try to test as much as possible whenever I have the time. Google Drive works for me, but I don't know why it works for you.
shadowsun, sorry for not responding but yes they are both public, one of them used to work even, not sure why it doesnt anymore, i do get a error saying "An unexpected error occurred. Please try again later." when accessing it in google drive
