Cheese dconf-editor workaround behaving erratically.
by cipherjones from LinuxQuestions.org on (#56KFK)
At some point the tab to access menu/prefs was removed from Cheese on several distros, a common workaround was to use dconf-editor. I tried it out, and this is what I found:
The default res is 1920x1080, causing input lag galore. It did not seem to work when I manually set the resolution to 384x216 in dconf-editor. Cheese opened to the default resolution after I saved and loaded. I also noticed most of the webcams features were not listed, especially zoom.
What did seem to work is loading OBS, setting the preferences there, closing OBS, loading cheese. When I did this, the result was 1184x656 resolution with the camera zoomed in, and this was exactly 2x the base resolution that I had set in OBS.
Are OBS and Cheese sharing a master webcam configuration file and drawing from it?
