Manpages - pw-v4l2.1
NAME
pw-v4l2 - Use PipeWire instead of V4L2
SYNOPSIS
pw-v4l2 [/options/] COMMAND [/ARGUMENTS…/]
DESCRIPTION
pw-v4l2 runs a command using a compatibility layer that maps PipeWire video devices to be visible to applications using V4L2.
This is implemented by preloading a shared library via LD_PRELOAD, which translates library calls that try to access V4L2 devices.
OPTIONS
-h
Show help.
-r NAME
The name of the remote instance to connect to. If left unspecified, a connection is made to the default PipeWire instance.
-v
Verbose operation.
EXAMPLES
pw-v4l2 v4l2-ctl –list-devices
