Hi
Just got the Sammy, but having trouble setting up the webcam with WindowsLive, which doesn’t give me the “Webcam” option as where my Dell laptop does.
Help. What am i doing wrong?
SteveDoes the Namuga 1.3M Webcam show up correctly in Device Manager?
Is it enabled?
Does the webcam work with Samsung PlayCamera application?
If you’re still having problems try reinstalling the webcam drivers from the Samsung website and then try Windows Live Messenger again.
You do mean Live Messenger? I can confirm that it can work as I was chatting to the Mrs from the train the other day!
I think you are using the New version of live messenger ( 2009), right? it didn’t work for it, so I uninstall it and install the 8.5 again, it work fine on 8.5, for the install file for 8.5 you can google it, and easy to find
Yes I’ve got the mic working with Live Messenger. It may be your settings, have you got Microphone Boost turned on? Find it in Control Panel, sounds, microphone tab, may be in advanced or settings.
I tried to run it without this turned on and my sound at the other end was very quiet.
If this doesn’t work then get back to me and I’ll look through all of my other settings for you.[quote1235852593=siupiu]

[/quote1235852593]Hi SIUPIU, can you let me know what didn’t work on Live Messenger for you please. I am getting a continuous beep, beep, beep noise which is very irritating. But only when I use the video as well as the audio.
If you had the same and fixed it with v8.5 then I’ll grab a download.Webcam and video call button is gray ( can’t press), but when i go to webcam setting, it show my webcam..strange, so I install 8.5 and Work fine with 8.5, no problem at all…Webcam, video call is ok ( I tried)
Yeah I’ve noticed it limited to small too, but I’ve only tested it so far on mobile broadband, I actually assumed (wrongly I see) that was the cause.

[/quote1235999184]What OS are you quoting this for? Not XP I’m guessing. We’ve got Sounds and Audio devices in Control Panel. Regardless of the settings I can’t find sound boost! 🙁

[/quote1236116166]Microphone boost is in both XP and Vista. For XP its in Control Panel, Sounds & Audio Devices, Voice Tab, Voice Recording Volume, Advanced, 1 Microphone Boost check box.
Worth a try.Also you need to Mute the microphone volume on the volume controls mixer. I know that it doesn’t sound right, but that was what the Skype help set up said to do!!! Double click on the volume control in the system tray in XP and the Master Volume mixer opens up. Click in the Mute checkbox against Mic Volume.
Good luck let me know how it goes.
