Hi

Currently I am using Freebsd 12.2.

I am using Logitech C930e webcam. 

I install Cheese version 3.38.0_2.

After installing the the webcamd, and configure cuse from /boot/loader.conf and webcamd rc.conf, etc. 

The webcam works fine. 

Is just that after a few minutes, the cheese program just gives error "There was an error playing video from the webcam."

I notice that there is no cheese preference settings which you can change the webcam device.

How do i fix this software bug that i am having?
