Screen Sharing showing three monitors as one

When I screen share over applications like slack, chrome and discord, my screens all get merged into one which is a bit of an issue for the viewer, Anydesk, however, knows how to differentiate between the screens, the main difference is that Anydesk is not a web application.

Could I get pointed to some information/guide on how to fix this issue?

Gnome, Xorg & Arch.

Re: Screen Sharing showing three monitors as one

This seems to be a Google Chrome bug - https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/is … ?id=437507

A solution was posted which basically explains how to use VLC to proxy one of your screens and display it as the screen to share.
