My current theory is that we broke video input for non Intel platforms. On my machine with AMD GPU, I get:

However, with version 107.0.5304.121-hwacc (from latest/candidate/hwacc branch), the same test does not work. The only difference between the two in `snap connections chromium` is content chromium:va-driver-non-free - - Test: 1. Install Chromium from the given channel 2. Go to https://framatalk.org/ and click on "Create a room" 3. Accept the permissions to access Microphone and Camera Expected result: Image from camera is displayed on screen Actual result: The webcam is turned on (the LED turns on), but no image is captured, and after a few seconds, an error message is displayed ("We are unable to access your camera"). In the settings, I can see the camera name ("UVC Camera (046d:0802)"). Attached are two logs: - One retrieved by launching Chromium with `chromium --enable-logging=stderr`, accessing framatalk.org and clicking on "Create a room". - One retrieved by launching Chromium with `chromium --enable-logging=stderr` and accessing a Google Meet event.
