I reinstalled my Manjaro Plasma, and after this my notebook webcam is randomly working in Brave Browser or Chromium Browser, I join a google meet and sometimes it works and then freeze, sometimes it don’t even work and camera turns all black or don’t start. I don’t have any clue on how to investigate this error or fix it. I have a suspect is something related to codecs cause Whatsapp videos are failling as well.
This is my inxi -Fazy
