Audio support

Harknotes captures audio using PulseAudio or PipeWire — whichever your system uses. System audio (loopback) and microphone are captured as separate streams, so your voice and the rest of the meeting are labelled separately in the transcript.

PulseAudio — supported on Ubuntu 20.04+, older Debian-based systems
PipeWire — supported on Fedora 34+, Ubuntu 22.10+, modern distros
