I can't seem to allow the camera when using sites like meet.google.com

I recently tried to connect to two different meeting sites. Both times I got a pop-up noting (correctly) that camera and microphone are blocked. I'm able to click to enable the microphone but I never get the option to enable the camera.

I tried going to Settings>Security&Privacy>Camera but that only allows me to remove previously-enabled websites.

Clicking on the settings button in the address bar shows audio and recording settings but no camera.

What am I doing wrong?

Fedora 42 Firefox 145.0

Referring to your screenshots, as I reported initially the pop-up from the address bar tells me I've allowed the microphone but doesn't mention the webcam (any webcam) at all. As for the Settings page, meet.google.com doesn't show up in the list of sites granted permissions and there's no way to add it and grant permissions manually.

All of this is moot, however.

I've upgraded to Fedora 43 and now everything's working. The KDE version didn't change and I'm still using Wayland (no choice about that w/f43) but now I get a list of my cameras/speakers/microphones to grant permission to. Works for meet.google.com, zoom.us, and webcammictest.com. Who knows, maybe it was the upgrade's reboots that solved the problem. ("Have you tried turning it on and off again?")

Thanks for engaging with this problem.

I have no issues with meet. Can you go to these sites and test that your camera is working. https://webcammictest.com/ https://app.zoom.us/test

Looking at your screenshot, it appears that the camera is not available. What Desktop? X11 or Wayland?

jonzn4SUSE -

The two test sites work pretty much the same way as meet.google.com; I'm never prompted to grant access to the camera and the site complains that camera access is denied. Clicking on the sliders icon in the address bar, it tells me about the things I have enabled but doesn't say anything about the camera. The setting menu doesn't offer a way to add a site directly.

The camera works in google-chrome and chrome-derived browsers like Brave.

I'm running KDE 6.5.3 over Wayland.

Allow me to revise and extend.

The camera works fine if I install the local Zoom binaries. Doesn't work from a web browser.
