Distribution: Arch Linux
OBS Version: 31.0.3
Kernel Version: 6.14.2-arch1-1
v4l2loopback-utils Version: 0.14.0-1
vulkan-radeon Version: 25.0.3-1
When I click "Start Virtual Camera" on OBS Studio I get the "Failed to start virtual camera" error. Checking the logs, I see "Failed to start streaming on '/dev/video2' (Invalid argument)." I tried downgrading to 0.13.2-1.
I could start the Virtual Camera, but Google Meet and other conferencing software could not detect my virtual camera anymore. also some other programs need v4l2 so I can no longer keep it in the downgraded state. Are there any fixes other than waiting for OBS to correct their code?
