guvcview won't start anymore

It seems that the webcam is working properly:

An application like, e.g., "wire", recognizes the camera and shows the video stream.

But for reasons I don't know guvcview can't show the pictures of the low-budget logitech webcam anymore:

Anyone with ideas where to look for a clue?

Re: guvcview won't start anymore

Some kind of false alarm from my side:

I removed my nvidia-graphics card to see how life is with intel-graphics. Everything seems fine until I tried guvcview.
Noticing that vaapi didn't work, I came to the conclusion that I have to deinstall all nvidia-340xx-stuff (drivers and utils-packages). And voilà, guvcview starts again showing my webcam stream.
