Guessing the GoPro's device name...
I can only make an uneducated guess wrt the name of the interface that the GoPro exposes.
For me the name of the interface is 'enxf64854ee7472'. This script will try to discover the device
that was added last, as you just plugged in the camera, hence the interface added last should be the one we're looking for.

I have the same problem. Working with the Go Pro Hero 4 on Ubuntu 22.04.

I'm also using v4l2loopback-0.12.7 if that helps.

Figured out what was happening, sort of. I was trying to use the GoPro with Zoom because Zoom didn't want to use the build in cam. Turns out it was an effect issue, once I removed the "blur" it started ok.

GoPro still refusing to work, with any app, VLC, Cheese, etc.

For me the solution was to disable my VPN. After that it worked.
