Trouble setting up webcam
I am struggling to get the webcam stream working. I tried following this https://crowsnest.mainsail.xyz/configuration/cam-section. I have a logitech c920e. My camera and crowsnest configuration are attached. I also recently updated my firmware and that didnt help either. No stream is showing in any mode. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

So I ssh'd into the raspberry pi and ran cd ~/crowsnest and sudo make install. Then after I rebooted, the update manager showed an update for crowsnest. I let it update and rebooted again. (had v4.0.2-0 -> v4.1.9-1). Then I had to set everything in the config file for crowsnest again. Now it works!

Use
mode: camera-streamer
change stream URL to /webcam/webrtc and service to WebRTCwith that, the webcam spins indefinitely
set crowsnest logging to
debug, restart it, refresh mainsail, then download the crowsnest.log and see what it says the problem is.ahh ok missing dependency camera-streamer
how do I add the dependency? The moonraker log is showing that the crowsnest updater is there
How old is your installation?
