Added

  • Host desktop audio on Linux (PulseAudio/PipeWire output monitors), macOS 13+ (ScreenCaptureKit), and Windows (WASAPI loopback). Install FFmpeg and unmute in the viewer to capture system output. Capture stops on mute/disconnect, and audio remains optional for desktop sharing.
  • Separate GNOME Wayland desktops now support audio in both the noVNC and frame viewers. Install pipewire-pulse pulseaudio-utils ffmpeg, restart Open Terminal, and unmute using the viewer's speaker button. Audio uses a private desktop sound server; missing audio packages do not disable the desktop.

Changed

  • Linux virtual desktops now default to XFCE, even when GNOME is installed. Select GNOME with --desktop-environment gnome or an explicit environment/config setting. The existing auto setting now selects XFCE.

Fixed

  • Fixed audio capture processes hanging during viewer disconnect when their output buffers were full.
  • Restored the Desktop option for GNOME Wayland installations without x11vnc. The package is optional: when installed, GNOME uses noVNC; otherwise it keeps the frame viewer.
