Not working on Ubuntu 20.04 (Razer Book 13)

Upon installation with apt, I noticed many issues. I tried purging and re-installing 3 times. For profile, I selected balanced.

• WARNING: Could not automatically find the right webcam, manual configuration after installation required
• the following warning:

• after the output line [ 77%] Building CXX object CMakeFiles/dlib_python.dir/src/basic.cpp.o, deprecation errors/warning/notices are being spammed (probably over 200) errors Py_DEPRECATED(3.7) PyAPI_FUNC(int) PyThread_create_key(void); in different files and error stacks. I also saw PyThread_set_key_value but there truly are errors by the hundreds so I cannot really tell what else is deprecated.

After I run sudo howdy add, I see the following:

No face model folder found, creating one
Adding face model for the user william

Camera path is not configured correctly, please edit the 'device_path' config value.

Is an older version of python required? I believe the installation script installed what I'm currently running.

$ python3 -V
Python 3.8.10
$ pip -V

I saw a similar issue and tried linux-enable-ir-emitter to resolve mine (https://github.com/EmixamPP/linux-enable-ir-emitter/issues/61) but it didn't resolve the error I get on Howdy.

Managed to get this working by using sudo howdy config and setting the device path to /dev/video2.

I found my IR camera using:

sudo apt install v4l-utils
v4l2-ctl --list-devices

Run v4l2-ctl -d /dev/videoN --list-formats-ext for each device to find which has infrared specs. For me, this looks like so:
