Can that still be used with GNOME Shell 3.26.1? Can anyone confirm that it works?

@Hasbreak Yes it works.

I just tried to use the newer one on GNOME 3.26.2 and I get backends/meta-screen-cast-stream-src.c:29:10: fatal error: spa/format-builder.h: No such file or directory. Am I doing something wrong or is this broken now?

Is there a new version for the GNOME Shell 3.32.1?
