HP Pavilion G6-1232sl Webcam Resolution?

Hi There,
I'm trying to find out the resolution of a HP laptop I intend to buy but in all the product specifications, it never shows the max resolution of the webcam. Could someone please answer this for me please?
Laptop: HP Pavilion G6-1232sl
Thanks very much,
alannm37.

Hi @alannm37,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read about you needing the Webcam resolution for HP Pavilion G6-1232sl Notebook.
A resolution up to 1366-768 with a 16:9 wide aspect ratio HD. I suspect the ratio would 720p as it is not listed in your manual for the Webcam. Here is link to the manuals for your notebook.
Hope this is what you need.
Thanks.

How to change webcam resolution

Hi,
I have a USB device to capture HDMI sources that I use to record from my camera. The device uses UVC so it's the same as a webcam for any Windows application.
The USB can output multiple resolution from SD to HD. However, I can't seem to be able to choose the recording resolution when I use it in Adobe Premiere Elements. It always record in 720x480, although in VLC, I can use it to record in 1080p.
Right now, I can record in VLC in 1080p then import in Premiere, but I would prefer to just be able to change the webcam resolution in Premiere!

What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
I have run into the same problem. There are other reports of this problem as well. I have a HD webcam that will only display as SD when used through the Premiere Elements Add Media/Webcam or WDM.
I have planned to analyze this in a blog post but have not gotten around to it yet.
Right now I do not think there is a fix other than to find that certain HD webcam that Premiere Elements will recognize as HD. That seems to be the case in this online video tutorial
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XebjDAeE7M
Note at the end how the output looks 16:9 rather than 4:3. For informational rather than promotional reasons I mention that it looks like a Logitech HD Pro Webcam C92 was used in that video tutorial on the Premiere Elements 12 webcam feature.
More later.

Linux webcam resolution

According to http://forums.adobe.com/message/2874921 the AIR team is aware of the issue of the low webcam resolution in Air on Ubuntu.
Is there any indication when a resolution will become available?
Does this problem occur on other Linux distributions as well?
I've confirmed the problem on Ubuntu 10.10 with the latest Air installer.

Hi Marcel,
Since Adobe decided not to support Linux any longer, I don't think the bug will ever be fixed.

Hp Pavilion 23xi Underscanning Resolution

I recently purchased the Pavilion 23xi and I loved to picture clarity and quality, but some games such as Crysis Warhead had some image lag issues. I thought there had to be a way to fix this. I went to the HP website and searched for the 23xi and found the Pavilion 23xi driver. After the installation the monitor now underscans the visible image by about an Inch on the top, left, and right sides of the screen. This creates a black border that now spans the full length of each side. I thouhght maybe it was the Catalyst Control Center, but no scaling options are allowed (other than GPU scaling enable/disable). I then thought maybe my VGA cable was the cause, I tried an HDMI cable with no change. I then thought maybe it was the software, hooked up my laptop still no change. My last thought was that maybe a scaling option had gotten ticked on the monitor, I can see a custom scaling option for the monitor but it is not selectable in any form. Also I am running Windows 7 x64 with a Radeon HD 6970. Is there someobody who can help me correct this, please?
This question was solved.

You can test the display by connecting it to a notebook via the HDMI displayport output and using presentation mode to extend the display onto the monitor.
When one starts installing drivers for devices that an OS has for them in its driverstore then things start going wrong.
You really should consider rolling back the display driver installation. Go into system restore and choose the checkpoint that was created when you installed the display's driver. Once you have done that go to the Crysis forums and take a look there to see what others have done to resolve the image lag.
In the future do yourself the favor of not installing a driver for a new display, unless it is a touchscreen or another special type of display. Your Hp Pavilion 23xi display is a PnP (plug n' play) device. That means plug it in and use it. The OS will take care of installing a WHQL driver.
An example of what I mean is in the following image. I have two P n' P displays connected to this desktop PC's video card outputs. I can play any game currently on the market with this PC without low FPS or lags.
BTW, you are better off using the DVI input for games and videos and the display's recommended native resolution. Back away from the old school VGA.

Setting the Webcam resolution?

Hello,
I planned to writing some basic motion tracking software in Java using the JMF. The webcam I planned to order is the Creative webcam live mentioned here on amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0002UE9WI/qid=1125501861/sr=8-5/ref=pd_bbs_5/103-4724716-5856630?v=glance&s=electronics&n=507846
The webcam is said to have a resolution of 640 x 480, and hoped to use the FrameAccess.java example from Sun to use the webcam rather than a video.
The FrameAccess.java I believe allows access to the pixels of each frame.
I just wondered if anyone knew, if the JMF included any functions to change the resolution of the webcam from 640 x 480 to maybe 320 x 240?
So there are less pixels to process from each frame?
Many thanks

Thank you for replying.
When I use this creative webcam with JMF, do you think using the FrameAccess code and changing this code to work with a webcam rather than video.
The FrameAccess code would display an image less than 620 x 480 in the swing component, and in the process method which allows access the frame pixels the number of pixels would be less than 620 x 480?
Even though the webcam has a default 640 x 240 setting? Would you have any idea how small the 640 x 480 would be reduced to?
Thanks

Linux webcam resolution in flash

Hello
I am using PartyBooth software (www.partyboothapp.com) that I purchased through adobe AIR. This is a simple application that lets you use a webcam to run a photobooth.
I have 3 cameras that are very well supported in Linux:
1) Logitech Webcam Pro 9000
2) Logitech Quickcam Vision Pro
3) Microsoft Lifecam Cinema
All 3 of these cameras work at full resolution in every linux app that I have used (including skype)
However, in this flash-based program (PartyBooth), the cameras will only work at 240x240 resolution, which is way too low to take reasonable pictures.
All 3 of these cameras are capable of HD resolutions, and again, all resolutions work in other applications! (Note: these are all UVC compliant cameras)
Is there a way to test if this is either:
A) A bug in Flash Player 10 for Linux
B) A bug in the PartyBooth applicaion
thanks for any help I can get!
Jon

I have this problem in all flash applications.
My camera uses v4l2 subsystem and UVC interface and has native resolution 640x480. In other programs (not flash, i.e. skype, guvcview) it starts to capture in 640x480 by default.
And if I start web browser (firefox or chrome) with preloading v4l1 compatibility library:
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l1compat.so firefox
flash starts to capture in 640x480. So it can be used as workaround before v4l2 support in flash will be fixed.

HP Pavilion G6-1113eo webcam not working

Hello,
I have a HP Pavilion G6-1113eo with Windows 7 and the integrated webcam stopped working just a few weeks after I bought it. I have several times tried reinstalling and updating the driver program (cyberlink youcam) but nothing seems to help. What should I do? Cyberlink can't find the webcam at all. The Youcam program is not so important to me, if it is easier to get the camera working without it.
So what to do? I wouldn't like to do a recovery of Windows as I feel it could happen again at any time.

Sounds like the hardware has failed.
If your warranty was still valid it should be replaced.
If not, if you don't fancy replacing it yourself (eBay), just buy a USB webcam is probably the handiest.

Detect possible webcam resolutions

Happy New Year to everybody!
So, I searched forums and googled and not found anything on how to detect the Webcam supported resolutions in flash.
The whole issue stems from the issue when I use Camera.getCamera() (only have one attached to my laptop) I'm always getting
different values for camera.height and camera.width. Also some 720p cams have different aspect ratio then the old cameras.
Is there possible to detect somehow what's the largets resolution is supported by a webcam? Or all possible resolutions supported?
GLTA.

hi
I´m trying to know if the webcam is 4/3 or 16/9. You know that your solution could work?
cam.setMode(64000,48000,fps);
switch (ScaleCam(cam)) {
                case 1.33: // 4/3
                    mx.controls.Alert.show("4/3"+"\n"+cam.width+"\n"+cam.height);
                    break;
                case 1.77: // 16/9
                    mx.controls.Alert.show("16/9"+"\n"+cam.width+"\n"+cam.height);
                    break;
                case 3: //
                    break;
protected function ScaleCam(cam:Camera):Number {
    var scale:Number = new Number();
    scale = cam.width/cam.height;
    scale = Number(scale.toFixed(2));
    return scale;
I haven´t got webcam HD 16/9, so can´t try this solution.
Thanks!

Webcam Resolution Issues

I am beginning to think that there is a hardware problem with the webcam on my new dv6-2043ca running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.
Can someone who owns a dv6-2043ca please confirm that the internal webcam works at resolutions greater than 160X120?

Try adjusting the focus ring. You can check the manual at page 3 for the part location.

Webcam resolution problem after sharing screen

If you have a call running with cameras on and one shares a screen for a bit the resolutions goes back to 640x480 (4:3). When you turn screen sharing off again it won't sync back up to HD. It's very annoying!
It also happens if only one person has the camera running.
Does it really have to lower the resolution? And why doesn't it go back to full resolution after you shut it down?
From what I've seen there's no way for it to go back up without restarting the call. It seems like just a retarded bug to me. Please have a look and I hope to have it fixed asap

This is not really a bug, but a an irritating feature, and has been like this since screen sharing with video was enabled.
When screen sharing, the call behaviour is like with group video calls, i.e. the connection is transferred from being P2P to be server based. The video format on group video calls is 4:3.
Apparently, until now , Skype developers have not yet figured out how to switch back to the P2P mode after screen sharing is stopped.
