The ext-image-capture-source-v1 and ext-image-copy-capture-v1 screen copy protocols build upon wlroots’ wlr-screencopy-unstable-v1 with various improvements for better screen capture support under Wayland. These new protocols should allow for better performance and window capturing support for use-cases around RDP/VNC remote desktop, screen sharing, and more.

Merge Request: Create ext-image-capture-source-v1 and ext-image-copy-capture-v1

      It is kind of shooting at the ambulance, zoom needs to also adapt to the new API. The alternative is a completely non functional Wayland for videoconferencing for years… Unusable stable is not better than unstable usable IMHO at least you have a shot at fixing it for the second option.
