Here's a #NixOS specific guide on how to get V4L2 camera forwarding working with #Waydroid 💡 https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/Waydroid#Camera_forwarding
Waydroid - Official NixOS Wiki

Waydroid is an application which uses LXC containers to run Android applications on a non-Android system.

Apparantly you can use #Waydroid for that. But personally, I do not use Waydroid, so I have no experience with that.

Also camera getting to work in Waydroid seems difficult.

You can use Waydroid on Linux, whether it is a Linux desktop, laptop or phone.

Maybe I should try this once myself, but my preference is to stay away from Android apps.

Anyone else who ends up looking for an android emulator. After a day of research and trying to run lineageOS in qemu #waydroid is way easier.

@mosgaard, no. Android apps run inside a container called #waydroid. For example, instead of using Google Play Services (that includes all the telemetry/tracking), it uses something called MicroG, allowing you to run apps like youtube which requires some shared libraries.

I'm using #fairphone5 with #postmarketos as my dailydriver.. There are a few pains. But I want to share how I solve the main for me. This is audio in calls not working.. What I did is redirect my phone number to a SIP phone number. I configured it in #linphone on #waydroid and with this workaround I am able to make and receive phone calls with audio working in #FP5

Today I found that i can run full android on linux using Waydroid.

Waydroid is container based layer and there is no translation layer so its so fast compared to the emulators.

Requries wayland supported desktop environment to run smoothly.

You can run any android app inside your pc using waydroid (aurora store: shown in the image)

It uses LineageOS as default so no google bloats.

Has anyone else had izzues with #WayDroid not letting you add storage permissions to an app? There's *one* app that is just totally broken bscause it can't read and write the Documenfs folder.
