This is the error I get when running gstreamer-properties. I get like and old fashioned tv offline at night rainbow display with a small frame in lower right hand corner of static-y video. I am running cheese 2.22.3-1

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start cheese
2. no video feed even though /dev/video0 is being detected by program with uvc camera eb1a:2761
3. turn off cheese


Actual results:
no video even though ogg files are made and snapshots are done... snapshots show the old fashioned rainbow display and there are not any vid feeds being made but files are made.

Expected results:


Does this happen every time?
yes
