after updating to LM 21 "Vanessa" Cheese hasn't been working properly.
As far as I can tell, the problem is Cheese-specific: Discord for example has no trouble correctly displaying my webcam feed.
What happens specifically is that Cheese will loop a very short replay buffer (maybe ~300-500ms?) shortly after starting / performing an action and also have a gray bar at the bottom of the frame (variable length, doesn't even necessarily align with a full row).
The replay buffer will refresh and loop a new ~300-500ms interval after taking a picture, but pictures I take will also contain the gray bar at the bottom of the frame with whatever length it happened to be at the time the picture was taken.
Recording video will create a video that contains only the replay buffer loop (complete with randomly fluctuating gray bar at the bottom). It is for the most part impractical for me to attach an example video or image right now, but if that happens to be necessary to troubleshoot, I can see about providing some visual examples as well.
Cheese has been working fine before the upgrade to LM 21, outside the upgrade I have not made any relevant changes to my configuration.
Since I was told to mention like all the relevant info that could possibly exist in the universe, here is
