Public bug reported:
Hi,
integrated laptop cameras and USB cameras have a display name, which makes them
easy to select the correct camera.
This display name is replaced by a generic "Video Capture X" as of
5.13.0-28-generic, including the current 5.13.0-30-generic.
cat /proc/version_signature
Ubuntu 5.13.0-30.33~20.04.1-generic 5.13.19
v4l-ctl --list-devices
Video Capture 5 (usb-0000:00:14.0-1):
/dev/video2
/dev/video3
Video Capture 3 (usb-0000:00:14.0-8):
/dev/video0
/dev/video1
cat /proc/version_signature
Ubuntu 5.13.0-27.29~20.04.1-generic 5.13.19
v4l-ctl --list-devices
Huddly IQ (usb-0000:00:14.0-1):
/dev/video0
/dev/video1
Integrated Camera: Integrated C (usb-0000:00:14.0-8):
/dev/video2
/dev/video3
This display name is rendered by eg Cheese and Jitsi to allow camera
selection by name.
