A little #PIpeWire tip I learned today. If you want to use OBS Studio with a Google Meet session in Firefox. Start OBS Studio first, if not Firefox will set a format for the camera that OBS Studio do not support and you get a black box in OBS Studio. The other way is fine.
Wim is working on a proper solution, adding video conversion to PipeWire, but for now the ordering do matter.

@Cfkschaller That was driving me nuts! Thanks for that tip! I hadn't been streaming for a long time because everything was broken... 😂😭

@Cfkschaller Yeah, unfortunately #OBSstudio doesn't support jpeg yet - at least in the #pipewire camera plugin. It arguably should though as many UVC cameras require that for high frame rates. We also initially didn't support that in #gnomeSnapshot, which was the main reason it initially was so much slower than Cheese on many setups.
Still great to hear about the generic conversion solution though!
