3. A simple API. If your app has its own #v4l2 handling code, switching to #PipeWire gives you a much nicer API to work with. This is especially true if your app already support screen sharing on #Wayland - in that case you already have both #PipeWire and portal support and can reuse a lot of that. That's for example done in #libwebrtc for #Firefox and #Chromium.

So we'll have a neat little camera indicator in #gnome45.

It will only show up for apps that use #PipeWire for camera access so we depend on more apps switching to it.

During the #GUADEC2023 "State of the Shell" talk I was asked what incentives there are for app developers to do so and unfortunately I messed up to make the probably most convincing ones, so short 🧵

1. support for modern cameras via #libcamera (as opposed to only #v4l2 / UVC cameras).

#linux #furautils
added a simple #bash #script to my furautils repo to create a #v4l2 #loopback which can be used to feed the same video stream from a webcam/camera (#uvcvideo) to multiple applications instead of just one.

It works for me and has simplified my life a lot, hope it will turn out to be helpful also for you ^^

Rust Support Is Being Worked On For The Linux Kernel's V4L2/Media Subsystem https://www.phoronix.com/news/Rust-V4L2-Linux-Patches

#Rustlang #Rust #Linux #Video4Linux #V4L2

With more SoC support, a new #V4L2 driver & a new dma-buf locking convention among its contributions, Collabora was one of the most active employers for the latest kernel development cycle! 🎉 Here's a look at our contributions to #Linux 6.2: https://col.la/lk62 #RK3588 #AV1

@recursive *nodds in agreement*

Personally, I hate this obsession and when some shitty company demanded me to do an exam and record me while I'm at it I was thinking about just using #v4l2 - loopback to stream a static image instead before deciding: "No, I'm not gonna do this shit and your rules suck - find someone else instead, cuz I don't want your job if you don't trust me having skills!"

Freshly released, the latest #Linux kernel boasts quite a few changes merged into the mainline. Take a look at the interesting contributions made by our engineering team for kernel 5.19! https://col.la/1f #V4L2 #OpenSource

Released on May 22 after a busy two-month development cycle, the latest #Linux kernel once again brings new features & lights up new hardware. Here's a look at the contributions made by our engineering team for kernel 5.18! https://col.la/lk518 #Panfrost #V4L2 #OpenSource

With over 350 patches authored & nearly 200 reviewed and tested in multiple subsystems, 2021 was a great year for #Linux kernel development at Collabora. Here's a look at some of our achievements: https://col.la/ukc21 #futex2 #filesystems #v4l2 #gaming #kernelci
