Hi, please bump media-video/v4l2loopback to the latest release (0.12.5). The current 0.12.1.1_pre exhibits a strange bug for me, but I’m not too keen on debugging it when the latest release works (which it does). Thanks, qsx
A notable bug with the latest version currently in the tree appears to be this one: https://github.com/umlaeute/v4l2loopback/issues/248 i.e. the versions currently in the tree will not work with kernels >=5.4.
Following the instructions at <https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Custom_repository#Simple_version_bump_of_an_ebuild_in_the_local_repository> for v4l2loopback-0.12.5 got me a working module with kernel 5.4.38. (I did have add a "!" tee to my gst-launch-1.0 lines, as suggested at <https://github.com/umlaeute/v4l2loopback/issues/83>.)
