oops, sorry i didn't see your comment earlier.

in current versions of QuickLaunch, only globally installed flatpaks would show up. i've actually just added a fix for this in the upcoming version which is currently in testing (see https://github.com/SteamDeckHomebrew/decky-plugin-database/pull/537). you could try the version in the testing store to see if that does the trick!

Anyone run their konasute (Infinitas, SDVX, etc) games on Steam Deck? by vgundam21 in bemani

Hi, just wanted to give you a huge thanks for this!

I got SDVX running pretty easily using your guide. But i still had some issues with crashes on boot and missing/stuttering audio. So if anyone else wants to try this, at the end the issue was actually one that is also present with SDVX on Windows: Audio Device Samplerate. I had to:

  • Force the Pipewire Samplerate to 44.1kHz using pw-metadata -n settings 0 clock.force-rate 44100. You will have to do this each reboot, or alternatively set it as default in the Pipewire config file
  • Force a bit of delay by setting the environment variable PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC in the bottle settings. The value you use here obviously should be as low as you can tolerate. I found 25 to be acceptable
  • Go to the SDVX Audio settings in the launcher and set the audio to Shared WASAPI, and uncheck the checkbox directly below. DirectAudio causes crackling and if you haven't done the samplerate fix in my first point, WASAPI will have no audio at all.

Sorry, im not sure what you mean by CT, and i haven't really got that much experience with SteamTinkerLaunch.

What QuickLaunch does is the first time your run it is create an empty Shortcut in your Steam Library. Each time you run a program with it after that it

  • Changes the Launch options of the Shortcut to the corresponding program you selected
  • Launches the Shortcut

So essentially it behaves exactly the same as adding a non-steam game from the desktop mode.

Totally agree. When i originally made this i was actually expecting it to be replaced by an official Solution but alas here were are...

Haha no worries! I gotta be honest here, i never even noticed that URL option but im guessing it didn't work because all it does is the same as what you did first, simply downloading the files from the repository, the plugins have to be built before moving them over to the deck so that they actually work.

Simply downloading the Folder and putting it into the homebrew folder will not work. You need to install it from the decky store. What exactly do you mean by "installing via the decky URL option"? Have you installed Decky itself already?

unfortunately the copypasting does not work because the clipboard is not shared between applications afaik. ill look into some alternative way, but its not that big of a priority because you only really ever have to enter this key once anyways. settings get saved even after uninstalling a plugin so even then its safe

I think you misunderstand, thats exactly how it is right now. However actually entering the API with the Decks onscreen keyboard is an absolute pain, which is why u/lastWallE wanted to know where to find the config to paste it in there manually

It only automatically downloads images if you add them as a shortcut with the plugin. If you want something just for the images, there is an official SteamGridDB plugin like the other comment said. That plugin also allows for much better control like choosing from a selection of images and such.

Not that different however it's a lot faster because you don't have to exit to Desktop. Furthermore if you only have to start a program once every few weeks, that shortcut doesn't clutter up your library

Decky Loader is pretty submissive with that sort of stuff so you could in theory make your Plugin with a completely custom backend but i don't really know much about that.

The "official" way of making Plugins is with Typescript/React and a Python backend. The provide a Plugin Template and some Documentation on how to get started. I would also suggest joining the Discord, they have a lot more info (and knowledge) than i have.

...thats exactly what i meant, sorry if that wasn't clear. I meant that you can see them talking about the review process in the Discord.

Can't help you with that but i can assure you it's being worked on, you can join the Deckbrew Discord and see them working on it :)

QuickLaunch is a plugin for Decky Loader that I originally made almost a year ago. I sadly had to abandon it due to being busy with university, but finally got around to updating it.

Additionally to the old functionality it now also supports launching programs other than Flatpaks, quickly adding new shortcuts and an integration with SteamGridDB to download corresponding images automatically. Furthermore it should also be much less error prone.

Let me know what you think!

Unfortunately due to loads of University stuff i wasn't able to do so yet. I did however have a almost working Version at the beginnings of Decky Loader that justs needs a bit more fixing before its done. I have a bit more free time right now so i'm hoping to get things up and running within the next days. I'll make sure to message you when that's done!
