Subject: [PATCH] Scene-only playlists: playSilence keeps a live audio input
 running
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

A playlist made only of ✨ Intermezzo scenes is the visuals-only sequencer
(effects/text/images on a timeline, chained and looping with repeat), but
playSilence tore down the live input source, so effects stopped reacting to
the DJ's real music. Now only file/track audio is silenced; a mic/line/
BlackHole input keeps feeding the analyser through every scene.
