I'm sorry. I got home soooooooooo late. I worked almost 16 hours. I wanted to look into it but it's late now. I'll try as soon as I can.okay thank you
Alright. I'm gunna take a guess here: Laptops generally have built in cameras. Manycam, like other camera applications, use default devices denoted by the operating system. The operating system, by default, disables the built in camera when an external one is installed. The problem may be that that didn't happen, and manycam is being faced with two webcams, which is causing a malfunction. To verify whether this is the case, right click on your start menu button(windows 10), and click device manager. Find the Cameras tab in the list, and in that list, find your integrated camera. Right click it, and click disable. If it's already disabled, then this isn't the issue.
I don't see any cameras listed there, which is probably the problem. It looks like your logitdch camera isn't installed. Or, more specifically, the driver for it. Let me find a good link for you.
Then open it and attempt to get the camera to load within the software. Your device manager isn't listing any installed cameras. That means 1 of 2 things: Either Windows didn't install the generic driver for it, or Windows isn't recognizing the camera when you plug it in.
dang this is annoying
Is your webcam capturing video? That's what I'm trying to find out. It appears that your webcam isn't even installed, which would explain why manycam isn't working. I need you to test the webcam to see if it captures video. You should be able to use that software for that.okay im in Logitech capture and i dont see how to change the source it just says Logitech webcam how do i change it too manycam or maycam lite. it wont let me.
For me my c920 is listed under IMAGINE DEVICE, my other 2 cameras are listed under CAMERAS. So chances are the camera IS installed, hence the also getting an image when using that capture app.
Perhaps you're right. However, imaging devices consist of scanners and the like, which means it would be very incorrect for Windows to list a camera under this category. But, if that's what happened, then it is what it is. Either way, it doesn't change anything at all, since that simply tells us what we already know: The camera is installed and working.
If by reset you mean reinstalled Windows, that means it was indeed a software issue, as I suspected. Since logitech's software was picking up the camera before, that means it had nothing to do with your camera. I can't tell you for sure what it was since I'm now unable to look further into it, but my best guess is that windows had some corrupted files which was preventing manycam from either properly installing, or properly registering a camera. Probably the latter.guys its working fine now i reset my whole PC and it works fine now. also, i am using a different anti virus i wonder if that was why it wasn't working right. what do you guys think the problems was? i mean i impulsively reset everything i mean most of my files was on a backup hard-drive so its all good lol however the rest took forever!!! i mean the only problem i have with manycam lite is it sometimes crashes when using the virtual background. however other then that its fine... im just happy its working mostly fine now.
