								Use PipeWire instead of V4L2

|

								# SYNOPSIS
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								**pw-v4l2** \[*options*\] *COMMAND* \[*ARGUMENTS...*\]
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								# DESCRIPTION
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								**pw-v4l2** runs a command using a compatibility layer that maps PipeWire
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								video devices to be visible to applications using V4L2.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								This is implemented by preloading a shared library via LD_PRELOAD,
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								which translates library calls that try to access V4L2 devices.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 |
