Webcam

It will be red or blue. If you're afraid it's on when you don't want it on, just cover it with a piece of masking tape. LOL

I have an hp dv9000 and the web cam only works on yahoo instant message. how can it be made to work on it's own?

To turn on an HP webcam:
1. Go to QuickPlay (press the blue-lighted button above the F3 key (or next to the power button)).
2. When QuickPlay shows up, there is a row of six icons across the bottom of the screen: click on the second one from the left (the one with the photo-movie_reel-music_notes).
3. A window with three 'frames' shows up. On the left frame there are six items: the fifth one should say 'HP Webcam'. Click on it.
4. The webcam's blue LED light should now be turned on. There should be a rectangle with dimensions of ratio 1:2 which should show what the camera is sensing.
5. There is a row of seven buttons above that rectangle: the seventh is for taking snapshots and the sixth for recording videos.
6. Videos and pictures are saved at:
Pictures -- C:\Users\Public\Public Pictures\My Snapshots
Videos -- C:\Users\Public\Public Videos\HP Webcam
sometimes it doesnt say "hp web cam" it says "usb video device"

Delay in video. is there a way to fix this? Is thi sdone through video filter/ frame rate? tks

hi,
Some of the cheaper web cams are only capturing 15 frames per second (FPS) or less, whereas better web cams can capture 30 FPS and a larger picture too.Visit the website of the manufacturer of your webcam and see the details of that camera. It's possible you can increase the speed some through your camera settings. Look for your camera's icon in your Control Panel or in your Device Manager section and check your settings.just needed to change fps and the back lighting. <3
