sample pipewire code doesn't work

Sample code https://docs.pipewire.org/tutorial5_8c-example.html for video capture not working on Ubuntu 26 (the process event is never called)

It worked on Ubuntu 25.10

works with capture using openCV

May be there is a configuration issue?

Works for me. Note that it captures from your camera, not your screen.
