Sharing screen: current application not visible #539

Describe the issue
When sharing screen on a MacOS application using this SDK the application in which the SDK is integrated is not visible. If you select Entire Screen everything will be shared but the current application. If you select Application Window all open applications will be listed but the current application.

I found a param with name includeCurrentApplication on ScreenShareCaptureOptions which defaults to false and I explicitly set it to true in all cases. The preview on the ScreenShareSourcePickerCtrl now shows the current application but when sharing it, it's not included.

SDK Version
2.0.19

iOS/macOS Version
Sonoma 14.4.1

Xcode Version
Xcode: 15.0.1
Swift 4.2

Steps to Reproduce

  • Start a call
  • Tap on screen share icon
  • Select Entire Screen
  • Everything but the current app will be shared

Expected behavior

  • I want the existing app to be shared as well.

Screenshots
Preview on share source picker shows the current application (which is basically the call window)

Once shared even when I'm at the call window, the shared content will show what's behind, in this case this ticket I'm writing.
