Bug ID: 492591
Summary: Camera Indicator applet falsely shows "No camera is in
use"
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: master
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Camera Indicator
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: boero...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
I love the concept of this tray entry but it doesn't seem to work. It installed
itself during a Fedora update but I see it sits idle showing no camera active
even while I'm on a Teams meeting clearly using the primary (only) webcam in
this Dell XPS laptop. Also curiously the applet shows two cameras though my
system only has one.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Fire up a teams meeting or any app that uses webcam.
2. Show self view to verify camera is live.
OBSERVED RESULT
Camera Indicator applet still shows "No camera is in use"
EXPECTED RESULT
"Camera is in use"
