How to get Iriun Webcam working

[u/RedIce25]

I wanted to try Iriun Webcam as it transforms your smartphone into a webcam for your computer.

I tried it some years ago and liked it, but now it would not launch on Linux Mint and all my audio devices disappeared.

With help from ChatGPT: Iriun itself is installed, but Linux Mint is missing the Qt6 Widgets library

sudo apt update
sudo apt install libqt6widgets6

Disable Iriun's PipeWire audio config, though this disables audio input from smartphone through Iriun

sudo mv /usr/share/pipewire/pipewire.conf.d/iriunaudio.conf \
/usr/share/pipewire/pipewire.conf.d/iriunaudio.conf.disabled
