Answer

How do I use my  

webcam with other 

video capture devices?

The best way is to disable all other video capture devices and 

ensure the webcam is the default device. To do this:
1.  Click on the Start menu button and choose Settings, and 

then Control Panel. In the Windows Control Panel, double 

click on the “Multimedia” icon.

2.  Select the Devices tab at the top to view a list of all 

multimedia devices installed on your computer.

3.  Double click on the driver name.  This will open a dialog 

box showing your webcam’s properties.  

4.  Enable or disable the driver as required.

The video on my screen 

appears too light or too 

dark. What should I do?

Proper room lighting is critical for the correct functioning of 

the webcam. Your webcam requires a certain light level to 

produce good pictures. If you are getting dull or dark images, 

or if the color is poor, try increasing the ambient light in the 

room, or lighting the subject directly. Using the webcam in a 

sunlit room will also produce good results. If you cannot use 

your camera in a naturally well-lit setting, then a desk lamp or 

some other artificial light source must be used. 
You may also wish to adjust the brightness or contrast settings 

usually located in a Video Source (or similarly named) settings 

window in the software you are using.
