Hi,
 i didn't test V4l2loopback module under 3.15.5 yet ...
Can you try compiling the module from the sources?

https://code.google.com/p/webcamstudio/downloads/detail?name=webcamstudio-module
-109.tar.bz2&can=2&q=#makechanges

Thanks.
karl.

Seems to build ok.
After the compilation and installation you should run:

$ sudo modporbe webcamstudio

and then try to start WebcamStudio.
Anyway the module will be active at the next reboot.
Thanks for the feedback.

Oh, sorry thought it looked like it threw an error at the end. But ya a reboot 
did it, virtual cam functions as it should, glad i could help with testing.
