<em>PipeWire permissions</em>
Euphonica requires PipeWire capture permissions for its PipeWire visualizer backend, but currently it is only possible to specify a "blanket" PipeWire permission that also allows screen recording, microphone access, etc. Euphonica does not make use of these extra permissions, and will be updated to use a more restricted "audio portal" when one becomes available.
