Ken Sharp (kennybobs) wrote : HDMI video capture device fails [534d:2109] (no /dev/video{0,1})

Very recently my HDMI-->USB video capture device stopped working. /dev/video{0,1} is no longer created so it can no longer be accessed.

The device in question was bought from eBay:

Photo attached, just in case.

linux-image-5.4.0-42-generic works.

linux-image-5.4.0-45-generic fails:
