• Bug#1101351: Virtual camera no longer works with v4l2loopback 0.14.0

    From Jakob Haufe@21:1/5 to And the log only on Wed Mar 26 11:40:01 2025
    Package: obs-studio
    Version: 30.2.3+dfsg-2+b4
    Severity: important
    Tags: upstream

    obs-studio is no longer able to work with v4l2loopback 0.14.0.

    Unfortunately, the error message is misleading:

    Starting the output failed. Please check the log for details.

    Note: If you are using the NVENC or AMD encoders, make sure your
    video drivers are up to date.

    And the log only says:

    error: Failed to start streaming on '/dev/video2' (Invalid argument)
    warning: Failed to start virtual camera

    Upstream bug: https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/issues/11891
    A patch is availble at https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/pull/11906

    Workaround for Debian at this time is to install v4l2loopback 0.13.2-1
    from snapshots as 0.12.7-2 from bookworm no longer compiles with
    current kernels.
