First fully sandboxed Linux desktop app
It's really nice to see that happening, but every time I raised the subject with the Gnome team to see how we could run VLC in it, it's a no-go.Indeed, for a complete media player, I need:- access to files not directly opened by the user (playlists, MKV, DCP, MXF),- access (and unique probably) to raw devices read-only (DVD, AudioCD, Blu-Rays, webcams-v4l2, SDI, DVB),- direct access to raw audio output,- access to X11 for YUV output, or at least a direct OpenGL context,- access to network.For access to files and network, there seemed to be a solution with a manifest to get $home access; for audio, a solution might come with kdbus and pulseaudio; but for the others, they refuse blankly, saying that my "use case is irrelevant and dangerous".I hope this will evolve (maybe it already has), but so far, it's a bit hard to make a complete media player, tbh.
