Description Juan Magallón 2022-09-01 17:10:41 CEST
Trying to use Gnome 'cheese' I get a corrupted output from my webcam for
resolutions above 640x480.

It is caused by a bug in clutter-gst wrt to redering modes. Probaly it
affects all apps using clutter-gst.

Upstream bug:

clutter project is EOL [1]. However as many apps are still depending on it the issue is fixed with clutter-gst3-3.0.27-5.mga9.
