Re: Zoom Teams Skype
Alfonzo Liebenstein
I am having the same issue. The camera worked just fine for zoom and skype and then I updated to windows 10. Now the camera works just fine for skype but its blank for zoom, even though the light shows it on and working.
So its not the camera. Its some windows zoom interaction. How to fix it?
@ got it working.
Privacy settings were good- which allowed the blank screen with the camera light to be on. Downloading/re-installing zoom didn't help anything. I assumed the driver was fine since the camera would work just fine with skype, but for whatever reason, I downloaded/re-installed the camera driver, then it worked just fine on Zoom.
There appears to be a workaround for people who have Skype. I have seen some workarounds proposed for using the camera app to change settings while Teams is open, but as far as I'm concerned this is a myth - firstly you cannot have the camera being accessed by two apps at once, and secondly it juts doesn't work. My camera app looks completely different to my Teams camera feed.
Teams desperately needs camera settings, this is really basic functionality.
@JHarris-FIT - our org is now fully on Teams and skype is decommissioned. I noticed that camera settings are now accessible in Teams (O365), including zoom, brightness, contrast etc. I can now change my settings directly in Teams. Click the three dots, Settings, Devices, scroll down, click Open camera settings. I use a Logitech C930e. Good luck!
The ability to zoom on the video still doesn, but theres already a way to change a few settings of your webcam on teams, such as brightness, saturation, white balance, etc.
To do so, open the teams app> ... (3 dots right next to your picture on the top right corner)>settings>devices (on the left panel)>scroll down all the way to camera>"open camera settings"
