Audio but no Video

Help !
Just using Live Messenger and Logitech webcam for the first time.
Initially made contact with my parents, could see their video but mine was
missing.
Audio was fine.
Reconfigured to get the video working, but now when we try to connect. it
says "Loading ... " for a while and then just terminates the call.
Has anybody seen this before ?

Many thanks for any help and guidance you can offer.

Re: Audio but no Video

Hi,

I got lots of problems before with my logitech webcam and WLM / Skype.
All kind of different problems, from broken connections, frozen screens, bad
audio and so on. Logitech has serious problems with their webcams!

Google on : logitech webcam + cpu + 100% (usage)

(lots and lots of forum stuff on the logitech forum)

what you can try is: disconnect the webcam, deinstall the webcam software,
reinstall the software again but *only* the driver of the cam itselfs. Not
all the extra software which possible comes with the cam.
Close all other running programs and then start the video chat. Hopefully it
works better now.

If you still experience problem, just try with another brand of webcam.
Install also only the driver and not all the extra ballast of software. (i
gave up with my logitech messenger cam, and bought a VX-3000 instead) this
one gives very good video, only the sound is quiet soft.

Suc6 with it !
