I installed v4l2ucp under bodhi 5, but just noticed it isn't available for bl6. There may be a good reason why or an alternative I could use instead.
The reason I use this, at beginning of pandemic tried had to do some video conferences, first time I'd tried using my laptops integrated webcam. It just showed static basically. After searching and trying various things that didn't help or were just more programs that showed bad picture video, installed and ran v4l2ucp and now my webcam works (in any app).
I don't know enough about webcams or why this worked, but I do want my webcam to still be usable when I install bodhi 6, but haven't actually tested so maybe dont even need this software. Dunno. But I'm concerned if its not available, I won't know how to make my laptop's integrated camera work again.
