Its by-design, so you can voice with people while playing multiplayer games.
- simiones 4y agoYou can play multiplayer games with a window open though (as long as it doesn't try to stay in front of your game), right?
- crtasm 4y agoMinimising the window would achieve that, it's not necessary for closing it to also do so.
- lightedman 4y agoClosing the window frees up some video RAM, as you are no longer processing and displaying video streams from the voice/video chat. Minimizing the window keeps that RAM in active use.
- crtasm 4y agoThen that's also an issue that Discord should work on.
- lightedman 4y agoThe majority of that issue IIRC lies upon the Microsoft Window Manager, and if true, not much Discord can do about that.
- crtasm 4y agoSure, but if Discord is processing and displaying something, Discord can change that behaviour when it's minimised.
- OrderlyTiamat 4y agohuh? He just explained how that's not how it works. Are you suggesting Discord to mail angry comments to windows' window manager team?
- crtasm 4y agoDiscord is choosing to display things and can tell if you have minimised it, they don't need Windows to make any changes.
