I installed my new camera but it is not working. when LightBurn starts shows the following message:

The webcam works, I get a camera image with Cheese app

I have the EXACT same problem … and I also used Cheese to confirm it works.

I cannot get the inbuilt webcam to be displayed in the config … although it lists all the cameras attached.

I just tested and LightBurn-Linux64-v1.7.03.AppImage allows me to calibrate the cameras. It’s the installed version from the LightBurn-Linux64-v1.7.03.run that cannot see cameras.

I also added my user to the video group.

I came here to post the same answer: it works perfectly using the AppImage. I’m using an old smartphone with the DroidCam app (I threw away my old webcam, thinking it was incompatible since it only showed a black screen). However, I’m using Linux Mint, which is said to have compatibility issues with GTK, but with the AppImage, it’s working flawlessly.
