Hello guys! sometimes I watch movies with friends over jitsi meet, and in order to share just a single window with just its own audio I use chromium, that has the “share tab” option. However, I’d like a more general solution (I cannot play mkv files on browser, for example). I’d like a compact way that creates a virtual device sharing the window (even if the window gets minimized or hidden behind other windows!) and its audio, without the audio of all other windows (I don’t want my notification sounds to be shared too). a quick online search gave me only “complex” answers, that I’ll try only if a more convenient way is not available.

[I’m running EndeavourOS KDE Wayland]

Thank to everyone in advance!

    On KDE Plasma 6 + Firefox (both Wayland) I can share a window and workaround audio sharing by routing desktop audio to microphone. Vesktop (Discord alternative) supports screenshare w/ audio.
