Lync crashes on Video Call/Preview when I select MS VX-5000 Camera

Symptom: In Lync Settings I change the video device from the integrated webcam to the VX-5000.  Preview looks good in the tools window.  Then if I save it to use the VX-5000, and try to make any video call, Lync will instantly
crash.  The integrated webcam works great.
I've made sure the drivers for the web cam show up and are working correctly in Device Manager.  Any help/clues/workarounds would be great.

Hi,
Can you update the Lync client to the latest as well? and check whether you still have the problem. This one is 15.0.4629.1005

  • Bandwidth required for Lync 2013 audio video call

    Hi,
    what is the required bandwidth required for  lync 2013 audio video call from out side of company network. considering users will use owa integration with exchange 2013  for audio video call. 
    i tried with lync bandwidth calculator but could not figure it out. 
    actually i have some remote site where users have connectivity of 160 kbps only.

    There are a number of variables such as call type and video resolution, but I would suggest using this table as a guide:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj688118.aspx
    For example for capacity purposes with a Lync peer-to-peer call you're looking at 57Kbps (86 with FEC)

  • Nokia 808 Belle FP2 crashes during video call

    After upgrade my phone freezes when making /receiving video calls. Any fix for that or does nokia plan to address this soon???

    Sorry to hear the problems you are having.
    Have you tried re-installing your current firmware via Nokia Suite? If this doesn't work, then you may need to perform a three finger hard reset, and failing that, take your phone to your local Nokia Care point for them to inspect: http://nokia.com/support
    Remember to backup all personal data first onto memory card / PC / online storage.

  • Scratch Disk Video Audio Previews always auto-select "Same as Project" folder (CC 2014.0.1)

    My scratch disks previews folders select as "Same as Project" even though I selected another folder and saved before. Old and new projects. Help.

    This is a known issue that is resolved in the forthcoming update.
    A colleague reported in other threads on this issue that "if you set the customized location when first creating the project, the custom path should be remembered."

  • ITunes video reloads itself when no selection changes have been made.

    Various video content reloads itself on my devices (iPad Air 2, iPad 2, iPhone 5, and iPhone 4) even though no selection changes have been made (no additional video selected, or deleted) between syncs.  This issue turns a sync operation that should take less than a minute into 30 minutes or more!  Since this issue has manifested itself across multiple devices, the common factor being my MacBook Pro must be the bad link.
    Updates of OS and iTunes have not been enough to repair whatever is wrong....  I hope someone has a simple correction.  Apple Support at local store, on phone, and Apple Engineering have not been able to help.
    I believe I might need to somehow remove iTunes at a minimum (maybe OS too) from my MacBook Pro and rebuild it with best hopes of this issue finally correcting itself.  Does anyone know how to go about a clean removal installation of iTunes and/or OS?  Any other suggestions?
    Thank you!

    eeek. there was a hassle with video podcasts and QT 7.0.4 where if a file was corrupted in just the right/wrong way it could crash itunes ... but i hadn't seen one crash an entire PC like that before. (i might have missed reports though.)
    is it possible to identify which podcast seemed to be causing you the hassle? or does it seem to happen any time you download any podcast?

  • Video Calling - can NOKIA please confirm when avai...

    Hello Everyone,
    I have been happily using N900 for Skype video calling.
    When I first received my phone I was told by my phone company that N900 supports video calling without using Skype(using mobile numbers to other compatible phones via the 3G network)
    My partner also has a N900 and is not able to make Video Calling either, where when we both had an E72 we had no problems at all.
    I called Nokia 2 months ago and they said that in Australia, they will have video calling to mobile numbers very soon for the N900.  Can anyone at Nokia tell me when this is happening?  This was one of the main reasons I bought the N900 as it is promoted to have video calling on 3G as well as Internet (Skype or other).
    I am keen to use video calling as I work with clients who don't necessarily have Skype, but use video calling nonetheless.
    Awaiting Nokia's response.
    Thanks
    Bianca

    iPhone 4 doesn't have video calling like you think. It lets you video call other people with an iPhone 4, and only on wifi.
    I imagine it isn't included because not many people use it, it's expensive and quite tedious. With Skype, it's free.

  • Cant fully recieve video calls...when I accept, it...

    Hi,
    for the last month I cannot fully receive incoming or even sometimes outcoming video calls. When somebody is calling me and I accept the video call, in 95% of the cases the skype keeps 'ringing', but nothing else really happens. I do not see the other person, neither hear any sound. Even though I 'pick up' the video call as usual, its just behaving as it is not answered. Sometimes the person who is calling me sees, that the video call already started (there are the seconds running), but nothing else happens.
    I have to either wait for about 2min, before the skype ends the call itself, or I have to cancel Skype itself in Task manager. Sometimes even this doesnt work and I have to restart the computer.
    I uninstalled Skype and downloaded the new version again. But the problem persists.
    I've got windows 7.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Try to reset all Skype settings.
    Quit Skype or use Windows Task Manager to kill any Skype.exe process. Go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %appdata% and then press Enter or click the OK button. The Windows File Explorer will pop up. There locate a folder named “Skype”. Rename this folder to something different, e.g. Skype_old.
    Next go to Windows Start and in the Search/Run box type %temp%\skype and then press Enter or click the OK button. Delete the DbTemp folder.
    Restart Skype.
    N.B. If needed, you will still be able to re-establish your call and chat history. All data is still saved in the Skype_old folder.

  • Lync 2010 Voice & Video Support on Windows 2012 R2 SP1 RDSH & RDVH

    Hello - We have successfully demonstrated RDSH & RDVH using Windows 2012 R2, Windows 8 virtual desktops and Dell T10 Zero clients. RemoteFX has been successfully tested as well for Printing across RDSH & RDVH environments.
    Problem at hand is that we are unable to showcase Lync 2010 Voice & Video calling across both these environments (RDSH & RDVH).
    RDSH Environment
    In an RDSH environment, we observe that a Platronics headset connected to the Dell T10 thin client is able to get redirected to the RDSH Server using RemoteFX and in-turn the RDSH Server is able to detect the connected hardware. However, the Lync 2010 client,
    published using RDSH, is UNABLE to detect the connected audio device.
    As for Logitech Webcam connected to the Dell T10 thin client, we have no issues with device detection and the Lync 2010 client is able to see the connected Webcam device.
    RDVH Environment (Pooled Desktop)
    As for the RDVH environment, we observe that both the Platronics headset & Logitec Webcam connected to the the Dell T10 thin client are UNABLE to get redirected to the RDVH Server using RemoteFX. We have enabled RemoteFX via Group policy in this environment.
    Queries:
    A. Could you help providing some direction into troubleshooting/isolating the audio-device detection issue on Lync clients in an RDSH environment.
    B. Could you help providing some direction into troubleshooting/isolating the audio & webcam re-direction issue in an RDVH environment. FYI, our test bed server does NOT support GPU and wanted to check if that would be a limitation towards detection
    of these devices?
    Thanks

    Hi Dharmesh,
    Thank you for a response.
    We had already enabled Audio and Video playback option.
    But when we have tested with windows 7 desktop machine, the audio devices are detecting in Lync client in both RDVH and RDSH
    environment and we are able to make audio calls. So we are planning to test with the different thin clients. Post we will update the same.
    Thanks.

  • Video calling of any kind not functioning? iPhone 4

    My girlfriend and I have been trying for literally months now to figure out how to make video calls go through on  our iPhone 4s. Before anyone gives the (obvious) answer, yes, we have added each other to our contact lists (on all video apps we've tried). We've mainly been using Skype for voice calls, but when attempting to do video calls we discovered that not only Skype, but every other app we have is dysfunctional. Our Skype apps are both completely up to date and the same versions. We are both connected to WiFi and have access to media features. We've attempted using both front and back cameras. We have tried uninstalling/reinstalling our apps, rebooting iPhones, restoring iPhones, using jailbroken and non-jailbroken OS, pretty much every combination of things we can think of.
    We can talk just fine using voice calling features on apps, both iPhone to iPhone and iPhone to PC (when available). Voice call is flawless, works every single time, regardless of the platforms or OS versions or anything.
    However, when attempting to use the video call features, we can both see our own camera views on our own screens, but the person we're calling simply gets a solid black screen. There's still voice and sound, just no video display at all. We've tried it between iPhones and iPhone to PC, all we get is a black screen if the iPhone camera is being used.
    Video calling did work ONE time, just recently, from my iPhone to her computer (using Skype). She was able to see everything and hear things like it should work. After I hung up and attempted to video call again while she was on her iPhone, though, it was back to the black screen and no video. So, video from iPhone to PC worked once and then never again for no reason apparent to us.
    Other video call apps we've tried, like the built-in FaceTime, ooVoo, and some others have also failed to work, showing only a black screen. So, this is apparently an issue with the iPhones themselves, but hopefully someone here would know a working solution.

    It will help if you say whether you're on a Mac or PC.
    Other people who have reported this error have resolved it by unsyncing music, then resyncing. Some have found that resyncing an album at a time helps

  • Why can I not make video calls using Skype?

    I'm really baffled. I have a month old MacBook Air. I use Skype daily for work and personal business. Never had a problem until this evening. I went to make a video call and Skype was not linked with the camera - there was no option to make a video call and when I went into Preferences, it said I had no camera. I then used FaceTime - person I was calling also had FaceTime, so it wasn't an issue - but I've now spent an hour trying to solved the problem, including logging in and out of Skype, closing the app and reinstalling, all to no avail. The camera functions fine with FT and other apps - why will it not sync up with Skype after it's worked fine? Anyone have a clue? Thanks in advance.

    See this thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5306216?tstart=0
    FIX: 
    1. You need Time Machine
    2. Go to folder /Library/CoreMediaIO/Plug-Ins/DAL/
    3. Copy AppleCamera.plugin to good place (usb memory stick is the best place).
    4. Go to Time machine in date that skype work fine.
    5. Change AppleCamera.plugin with file from Time Machine
    6. Restart system, Now skype need to work with camera.
