@artemklevtsov
Ever since kernel 5.4 this version of the module has stopped working. I have created a droidcam-dkms-git version of the package that install the tools from the 6.7.5 version, but the module code is pulled in from git. When upstream makes a new release, I'll update this one.
@LevitatingRein thanks it works for me.
I suggest to split the package to droidcam-bin and droidcam-dkms parts.

Edit: I also added the fix @yochiwarez mentioned to the repository. You can download that commit as a patch here: https://github.com/LevitatingBusinessMan/droidcam-aur/commit/4586966807ed0cbcd1b8e1491acdff53ad724907.patch
Why xanmod kernel, and 4.9, and 4.14, and 3.16 ? This is madness !
for those who have this error Device not found (/dev/video[0-9]). change MODPATH in the pkgbuild file, like this : MODPATH="/usr/lib/modules/$(uname -r | sed 's/.[0-9]+-[0-9]+//')/extramodules"
it will work after reboot.
Same issue, Error: Device not found (/dev/video[0-9]). I installed and loaded v4l2loopback-dkms, it didn't help.
Hi,
I run into the exact same problem of Error: Device not found (/dev/video[0-9]).
Yes, my kernel goes along the headers ...
This is my dif from the build:

The module is installed into the wrong directory when using recent kernel versions I guess. I had to change the PKGBUILD and droidcam.install to point to "/usr/lib/modules/extramodules-ARCH".
