Opera does not detect the web cam with Google Meet

Hey,
I am not sure if this helps but can you go to Google Meets and then go to the camera settings? Maybe it is blocked somehow. I had the same issue on Zoom but on every single browser I used and apparently I once clicked a button that did not allow the camera usage.
Because if you have the same issue in Chrome maybe that could be a reason. Also try the camera if you are not in a meeting and look for the camera settings in your computer. Maybe there is something blocked for certain browsers.

@lukas425 thanks for your suggestion.
Camera and computer's setting are the same on Firefox, where everything works perfectly.
I have tried to change the Google Meet's webcam settings on Opera and Chrome, but nothing has changed.
It's seems strange to me because I use an external camera and the mic of that works correctly. It's just the video not detect from Meet.I don't know...

@lukas425 I already tried with Zoom and it works correctly. I tried with Meet and it says "no cameras found". If i go to the settings it says to me to connect a camera, but it is connected and working with other apps or also with Meet on Firefox.
I have also tried to change my account but nothing. It's still not working.
I agree with you that's very strange.

@arturdpo Maybe you need to also do this: https://forums.opera.com/topic/34659/opera-linux-browser-h-264-support-through-x264-open-source-codec?_=1614200894401
First you need to download the file from here: https://github.com/iteufel/nwjs-ffmpeg-prebuilt/releases
Hope this works!

Hope you got your answer.

Hi @sophiagracia,
It works in Firefox and Chrome. I don't know what happened in Opera.
