v4l2loopback "format not support" error in OBS Studio


I keep getting a weird error in OBS Studio while trying to enable my virtual camera, "format not support". This is after installing packages in Manjaro 19.0.2:

yay -S dkms linux56-headers
yay -S obs-v4l2sink v4l2loopback-dkms

Is this a OBS issue or a v4l2loopback one?


Solution

  • I found it. I forgot to run sudo modprobe v4l2loopback. It enables it I think.
