exact needed filesystem permissions?

[boredsquirrel]

the app does not work when removing host:rw filesystem permissions.

What exact directories is required?

When you select the directory to save the video to that gives the application access to that directory without any special permissions, but the recording application is a separate binary from the gui and that runs as a child process and flatpak doesn't support sharing permissions with child processes (I dont know why flatpak doesn't support this). That means full host:rw filesystem permission is required to save the video since the user can select any directory to save the video.

hmm, it didnt use a portal for saving, it used a normal GTK filepicker and only showed the directory that I gave it access to.

You know what you do, so I suppose this issue cannot be solved?

[dec05eba]

Yeah it cant be solved unless flatpak makes it possible to share permissions with child processes or unless I put the programs into the same process, but I cant do that right now because of nvidia driver bugs that makes the process freeze when you stop recording.

thanks for the explanation!
