Fortunately, it is usually a permissions issue that can be resolved in under a minute. This guide breaks down exactly why this happens and provides step-by-step solutions for every major device and browser.
Even if Chrome says it has permission, Apple’s operating system acts as a gatekeeper. If the system blocks Chrome, the browser cannot pass the video feed to Google Meet.
The most common cause is a red "X" over the camera icon in your address bar.
Troubleshooting “Camera is Blocked” Error in Google Meet
Look for a camera icon with a red slash or a lock icon (Settings) in the top-left of the address bar.
Some security software (like Kaspersky or Norton) has a "Webcam Protection" feature that blocks browsers by default.
The source code of G'MIC is shared between several github repositories with public access.
The code from these repositories are intended to be work-in-progress though,
so we don't recommend using them to access the source code, if you just want to compile the various interfaces of the G'MIC project.
Its is recommended to get the source code from
the latest .tar.gz archive instead.
Here are the instructions to compile G'MIC on a fresh installation of Debian (or Ubuntu).
It should not be much harder for other distros. First you need to install all the required tools and libraries:
Then, get the G'MIC source : camera is blocked google meet
You are now ready to compile the G'MIC interfaces: Fortunately, it is usually a permissions issue that
Just pick your choice: If the system blocks Chrome, the browser cannot
and go out for a long drink (the compilation takes time).
Note that compiling issues (compiler segfault) may happen with older versions of g++ (4.8.1 and 4.8.2).
If you encounter this kind of errors, you probably have to disable the support of OpenMP
in G'MIC to make it work, by compiling it with:
Also, please remember that the source code in the git repository is constantly under development and may be a bit unstable, so do not hesitate to report bugs if you encounter any.

In order to check if G'MIC works correctly on your system, you may want to execute the command and filter testing procedures. Assuming the CLI tool gmic is installed on your system, here is how to do it (on an Unix-flavored OS, adapt the instructions below for other OS):
These commands scan all G'MIC stdlib commands and G'MIC-Qt filters, and generate the images corresponding to the execution of these commands, with default parameters. Beware, this may take some time to complete!
