My current theory is that we broke video input for non Intel platforms.
On my machine with AMD GPU, I get:
ERROR:gpu_memory_buffer_support_x11.cc(134)] Can't create buffer -- gbm
device is missing
$ inxi -G

Title:
Webcam does not work with v107.0.5304.121-hwacc
Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
With the latest version of Chromium in the stable channel
(108.0.5359.94), I can access the webcam and the microphone in Google
Meet and Jitsi (using a framatalk.org instance).
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.
Configuration information
=========================
- Desktop with AMD GPU RX580
