[solved] Webcam not detected
Anyone help me, please!
I want to enjoy Facerig, but my webcam is not detected.
How should I do?

Windows7 64bit
Intel Core i7 2.4GHz
Webcam=Logicool C270

Webcam has no problems, because it works well on other allications like skype.
Webcam appears in Webcam list of FaceRig Startup Options.
When I click "Action!", LED of webcam turns on.
Then Animal appears.
There is message "Face Tracking OFF" on the top left of screen.
There is no square of Webcam movie on the bottom left of screen.

My pc is notebook pc "ASUS UX31A".
It has embeded webcam on the top of monitor.
It doesn't appear in FaceRig Startup Options.

Thank you!

Hi,

Take a look at this thread https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/app/274920/discussions/2/451850468375624974/ for black screen on input. It can either be that your webcam drivers are not up to date, some other program is using the feed from your webcam or that your webcam is not properly initialized.

Thank you for your help!

I tried them, but I could not resolve.

>1. Another program is already using your physical webcam.

I checked with Process Explorer.
Webcam is used by only FaceRig.exe.

>2. Your physical webcam is not properly initialized (if it has a LED to show when it turns on, that LED remains off when FaceRig starts).

I tried to set parameters such as all resolusions on Advance UI options.

>3. Physical webcam's drivers are not up-to-date.

I updated to latest drivers.
Updating completed.
6.1.7601.18208 -> 13.51.823.0
The driver was certainly old, but it could not resolve.

How should I do?

Thank you.

Please take a look at this thread here on how to find and on how to post the VP.log and dxdiag info that we need to further investigate the problem.

You did add the link to this thread in the email, right? And what about the dxdiag?

Note: I'm not a part of Holotech Studios and don't have access to the mailbox, so I'm just going off of what you just said.

Greetings,

By the looks of the logs, everything is working fine, it's just that your options have disabled the tracking and hidden the webcam feed :).

Go to the Advanced UI (last option on the top bar from left to right), then enable the Tracker using the option Toggle Tracking (5th option from left to right on the Advanced UI).

To toggle the webcam feed back, use the Toggle Picture in Picture option (the 3rd option on the top bar from left to right).

I too have had this issue for a week. In the end I found the solution to be that I had inadvertently pushed FN-F9 (FN = the Function key) on my Dell Laptop which disables/enables the Integrated Webcam. What I had done, of course, is disable the integrated camera.

One problem with this disabling method is that it also removes it from Device Manager—Imaging Devices list. At least that is what I thought, until just now, when I found in the View menu an option titled Show Hidden Devices.

The moral of the story: If it looks like you have hardware that is not being recognised by the system, then check your Device Manager settings and ensure View—Show Hidden Devices is selected.

One issue with the Device Manager is that you cannot right-click the disabled device and select Enable Device in the context menu (in my case). You have to know how to enable the device elsewhere.

I hope this helps peeps. :steamhappy:
