Linux / Ubuntu 25.04
Qt widgets camera examples doesn't handle missing camera input properly. Linux only allows one application to access a camera at a time.
Steps to reproduce:
Run the camera example.
Run the camera example again without closing the original application - you should get a warning that the camera is not available
Expected behavior:
The application should not display a camera feed as it is already being used in the already running example.
Buttons should ideally be greyed out/not interactable until camera input is available.
Observed behavior:
All UI elements are still interactable.
Label where the camera playback should show has strange artifacts.
Equipment:
Logitech C920 HD Pro Webcam
