I'm unable to run this program, compiled directly from the latest git clone without any errors.

I'm getting the exact same issue on Ubuntu 20.04, git ref 80f04cf. Tried back up to 9fa373, same error.

Previous revisions give an issue with some missing python modules because I did not run the install script I guess.

fangfufu commented 3 years ago

Did you guys install the v4l2loopback DKMS module correctly?

charles-huet-ixxi commented 3 years ago

@fangfufu the v4l2loopback is from the ubuntu repo for me, 

$ cat /proc/modules | grep -i v4l2loopback
v4l2loopback 40960 0 - Live 0x0000000000000000 (O)
videodev 245760 5 v4l2loopback,uvcvideo,videobuf2_v4l2,videobuf2_common, Live 0x0000000000000000

Looks correctly loaded to me.

I stumbled upon this issue though that makes me think it might be a version that does not work with pyfakewebcam : https://github.com/jremmons/pyfakewebcam/issues/7

I'll try to update the module today to see if this fixes the issue

cortex3 commented 3 years ago

same here, I'm on the latest version of the module and the repo also using arch linux.

fangfufu commented 3 years ago

I don't have Arch Linux installed to test this. Sorry. Can you guys try and use other software, like https://webcamoid.github.io/, to verify if your v4l2loopback actually works?

charles-huet-ixxi commented 3 years ago

I updated v4l2loopback to a manually-installed one (version 0.12.5) and now everything works fine.

Looks like there is a compatibility issue with some versions of v4l2loopback

ngoonee commented 3 years ago

The current version of v4l2-loopback-dkms in [community] is 0.12.5 though. And it works fine for rendering OBS' video (I also have a modded v4l2loopback-dc for droidcam, maybe that could cause problems?)

cortex3 commented 3 years ago

@ngoonee I only have the v4l2loopback-dkms in version 0.12.5-2 from the community repository and it's not working for me either. I don't think your extra package is the cause.

@fangfufu I was unable to install webcamoid but my webcam works just fine in obs. I'm not entirely sure if it's using v4l2loopback-dkms there though.

@fangfufu I was unable to install webcamoid but my webcam works just fine in obs. I'm not entirely sure if it's using v4l2loopback-dkms there though.

So here's the interesting thing, with more random attempts I got it working. I had to modify my modprobe.d/v4l2loopback.conf to remove my fixed numbers. So I guess Linux-Fake-Background-Webcam had issue finding the 'right' device to output to because I wasn't using consecutive numbers. Would probably be good to have both 'webcam-path' (as we have now) and 'output-path' or something like that so we can define both.

Still having issues though, since I can now apply this tool on my droidcam, but not on my integrated webcam due to it complaining about height and width not matching.... while it doesn't match for my droidcam device but it runs. More debugging required I guess.

fangfufu commented 3 years ago

@ngoonee , you need to specify the correct webcam. I guess you can specify the correct opening mode for your real webcam. Maybe your integrated webcam does not support the default resolution specified by the script.

ashleysommer commented 2 years ago

I had this same problem. I ran v4l2-ctl -D --list-devices and saw that my fake device was actually on /dev/video6 So I changed v4l2loopback-path in config.ini to /dev/video6 (and changed my webcam-path to the correct device for my real webcam too) then the software works as expected.

fangfufu commented 2 years ago

I have the same problem too now. I upgraded my Debian, that's why.

It might be related to this: https://github.com/jacksonliam/mjpg-streamer/issues/229

Nevermind, I misconfigured the config file after moving the hard drive to a new machine... That was silly.

allo-'s virtual_webcam_background works with v4l2loopback.

So I thinks it's a problem of this software.

raffaem commented 2 years ago

The default values where all wrong for me.

It could not work not now not ever.

It worked after I called it like that:

python3 fake.py --webcam-path /dev/video1 --v4l2loopback-path /dev/video0
dragonxtek commented 2 years ago

I have the same issue. Webcamoid works but no fake.py
