Still doesn't run due to libavutil.so.60

@s5e, try rebuild the package. It worked for me.

Broken by an update to ffmpeg

@mhdi

In droidcam.conf, you have:

videodev
v4l2loopback-dc
snd-aloop

This means droidcam.conf is reliant on there being v4l2looback-dc. However, you have the droidcam package rely on V4L2LOOPBACK-MODULE, which also includes v4l2loopback.

I get an error when connecting to the camera

droidcam
Video: /dev/video0
Audio: hw:0,1,0

(droidcam:514803): Gtk-CRITICAL **: 09:56:36.979: gtk_widget_get_scale_factor: assertion 'GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed
free(): invalid size
fish: Job 1, 'droidcam' terminated by signal SIGABRT (Abort)

I experience frequent crashes with this package lately, which seem to be caused by dynamically linked libjpeg-turbo. The official release from GitHub works well.

Would you consider switching this package to statically linked libjpeg-turbo like the developer recommends?

The last errors on current Manjaro (continuing from the previous comment):

Warnings and errors (though it did get updated) on current Manjaro x64. At least some are because of upstream, but unsure if all are so.

and more - but over a limit of a comment length here, so I will post a separate comment.

You need to add linux-headers as a dependency

Seems like ffmpeg now has libswscale.so.9 so this fails again (looking for libswscale.so.8).
