Skype Video Image Freezes with TV Freetalk Webcam

Hey,
I purchased a Freetalk Talk-7190 cam for my LC-70LE847U Sharp TV. When I am on Skype the cam works fine for about 30 seconds then it freezes and the person I am talking to only sees a frozen image of me (audio works fine when the image is frozen).
I thought the cam was defective, so I returned it and bought another one, but I am having the same issue. The firmware on my TV is updated. I tried on numerous computers and internet connections, so the problem is not bandwidth or connection related. The people I am talking to through the TV are all using laptops with Windows 7 and the most recent version of Skype.  I cannot tell that I am frozen when I am talking, but the people I am talking to tell me it always happens within the first 15-45 secs.
Any idea how to fix this issue? Also, does the 7190 model work on 2012 Sharp models or does only the 7191 (asked the same question of the Freetalk folks, but hoping someone here might know more)?
Thanks a lot.

  • 5800 XM: video image freezes, after firmware updat...

    HI,
    After updating to firmware version 40, I have a freezing video problem.
    When I play video file (.mp4), it starts playing as always but after a while image freezes but sound continues playing. No way forwarding video, the freezed image is always there but sound plays normally.
    I have Nokia 5800 XpressMusic, firmware version 40.2.005.263.04
    Everything else is working correctly in the phone after update to 40 firmware.
    Is it a problem that could be solved? 
    Thank you 

    2) Use Smart movie
    I downloaded this software but is unsigned. So using it means I must accept the possibility of damaging my files later... not an acceptable solution.
    As its a paid for app their is no problem i run it on my 5800 .

    What that this mean? Where is the expression taken from?

    I would really appreciate an official answer or proposal to solve this without wasting my time in converting those films that used to work in version 30.

  • Intermittent video/audio freezes with Quantum Client

    I upgraded to Quantum 2 weeks ago.   On my client, I am experiencing intermittent video/audio freezes that last about a second (rewind/replay is normal so it is not a problem with the source material).   I have experienced the problem with both live TV and recorded shows.   Sometimes we can watch an hour or more with no problems then there will be a cluster of 5 or more events, often within less then a minute of each other.   At first I though this was just an audio dropout, but now see it is a problem with both sound/audio -- no pixelation, no blackouts, just screen freezing or going very slow for a second or two.
    At the suggestion of Verizon tech support, my connection to the client is all component and digital optical audio (I used to be HDMI for video, but because of my home theater needed to be digital optical for sound).
    I have also noticed times where the response to the remote on both the client and server systems slows down with delays.   For example, when watching a show on the server, if I hit the quick (1 minute) rewind key -- I will see the server blink indicating it got the IR command, but nothing happens for 10 seconds or more.  In fact, if I hit the key several times, it will queue up the commands and do a long rewind 10 - 30 seconds after the first remote keypress.
    Is this a media server problem?  On my latest call to tech support, they were suspecting a coax issue -- but rewiring my house is neither easy nor cheap.   Plus wouldn't a coax issue manifest problems all of the time as opposed to a quick series of problems in a 5 minute cluster an hour or so into a night's viewing.
    I would prefer to keep Quantum; but I have not yet returned my original multi-room DVR setup (that worked fine) and need to determine if this can be fixed or should I just give up and return the Quantum boxes instead.
    Any advice would be appreciated.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I have actually had a very good experience with Verizon Technical Support.  On my last call, tier 2 support did a remote test of my cable connections and detected a problem.   A technican was then scheduled to come to my house.   The technican addressed 4 problems.
    1.  The client boxes were sent to me without end-caps (signal terminators) for the coax out ports;
    2.  The 4 way spliter needed to be replaced (the original was provided by Verizon);
    3.  The fiber box was not properly grounded;  and
    4.  We moved the cable modem next to the splitter putting it closer to the other units and bypassing a 50' cable run that may or may not have had problems.  -- Of course this last fix had me running cat5e cable to the office where the modem was, but so it goes.
    Anyway, after those fixes, my droppout problem appears to have gone away.

  • Flash video image problem with newest nVidia driver

    I've got a very weird display error since the last update. Basically, whenever I play flash video and afterwards close the browser (chromium), any purely black surfaces will display the full flash player image. The effect is only visible in the "first" window of a xmonad tab, that means if I cycle the window positions it will be in a different window. The others are not affected. When I restart X, I can see the flash video image flashing up shortly on the black screen. Restarting X fixes the issue. I cannot take any screenshot of the problem because the error is NOT visible on the screenshot. Therefore I suspect that some frame buffer used for the flash player is not getting cleared properly after exiting the browser, but it's really little more than a wild guess.
    As there are multiple components involved, I'm at a loss of where this might be coming from. I hope someone might be able to shed some light on this situation. Please post here if you have the same problem or have any idea why this happens!
    My setup:
    -nvidia 260.19.36-2
    -flashplugin 10.2.152.27-1
    -chromium 9.0.597.94-1
    -xmonad 0.9.2-1
    -xmonad-contrib 0.9.2-1

    if you asking about a bug reported on arch linux bugtracker, then you are doing it the wrong way.
    flash and nvidia are closed source, we can't do anything. A better place is to submit bugs to nvidia and adobe.
    Now i see that nvidia 270.26 was released. Maybe you want to check that out:

  • Skype video call freezes on android v4.4.4

    Hi,
    I just Updated my Motorola MotoX to Android version 4.4.4 and now I can't make video calls. Every time I turn my camera on, my Skype freezes and then crashes after like 5 seconds. 
    My Skype version is 5.0.0.51733. 
    Does anybody else have this issue?

    I too have the same problem on Moto G Google play edition. Any resolutions yet?
    I can see video correctly on Moto G, but my video (viewed by partner) freezes.
    BTW, I also discovered that when the reciever on the other side is recieving 4:3 video of me (aspect ratio) then it freezes after 5 seconds, whereas, when my phone is sending 16:9 ratio video, it works properly. Partner is a windows PC (desktop client) 16:9 happened only once. I do not find any setting in Skype Android app to select transmitted video ratio(apart from HQ/LQ setting).

  • Webcam/incoming video not working with flash 11

    I use a chat room which uses adobe flash for webcams to video conference. I've used adobe flash for webcam purposes for years without an issue but all of a sudden my outgoing video/audio doesn't work and incoming audio/video is very choppy. My webcam freeze frames on the first image it sees, and incoming audio/video just skips like a broken CD. I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling flash, uninstalling reinstall chrome, different browers...but the problem only exists in adobe flash. My webcam works fine in non-flash programs (i.e. Skype), as well as incoming audio/video. I believe this problem occured directly after the latest flash update. What can I do?
    Specs:
    2005 Dell Inspiron
    OS: Windows XP
    32 Bit
    Browser: Chrome (but tried also firefox, IE and still didnt work)
    Webcam: MS Lifecam VX-3000

    Here are the steps required to install the previous version
    1. Uninstall Flash Player using the stand alone uninstaller using these instructions
    2. Download the previous version of Flash Player here: Flash Player 11.1.102.63
    Note: This downloads a .zip file that contains all of the different releases of Flash Player for that version (ie. Windows, Mac, etc.)
    3. Extract the contents of this zip file
    4. Depending on your operating system and browser, go into either the 64 or 32 bit folders (do not use the debug folder) then double click the following filename to start the installation:
    Internet Explorer for Windows 7 64-bit: flashplayer11_1r102_63_winax_64bit.exe
    Other browsers for Windows 7 64-bit: flashplayer11_1r102_63_win_64bit.exe

  • Skype video freezing constantly

     Hi,
    So when I make video calls using skype, my video would freeze. Generally when I run skype without any other graphic intensive program, video calling would work normally. But at times, the video would suddenly freeze. This has the consequence of also disabling the mic which is also on the webcam. The only thing I am able to do is to click turn off video. Upon doing so, I am not able to switch video back on and mic is also still disabled.
    This problem becomes more prominent when I run a graphic intensive program like games. 
    The only way so that i could continue the call is to unplug and replug the webcam. 
    I've tried using a different webcam but the same would also occur. I've also tried updating drivers of my webcam and also reinstalling skype on my computer but with no luck. 
    My operating system is windows 7 

    Hi Sali02,
    could you please enable logs according to the instructions in https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12321/how-do-i-create-log-files?, reproduce the issue and upload resulting logs here, so that we can have a look?
    Thanks in advance.

    My connection is 8 mb Download and .6mp upload, my wife in another country has Fiber so is alot faster again.
    I am using Windows 8.1 and also a Ipad Air, same issues on both.
    The Windows Pc has a nice microsoft Hd webcam (not one of the cheapones) using a i7 pc with 16g of Ram and a Gaming Graphics Card.
    There is very little software on the pc, a couple of games, no itunes, Downloading software and very little running in the background. I use Window Defender and Anti virus and have recently done a re instal of windows and everything is updated driver and software wise, including skype.
    The Ipad is the Apple air.
    When connecting to my Wife in the Uk the reception isnt great picture wise and after a little while gets bad and also disconects alot and then comes back with a worse picture and call quality. I have even had the bad connection pop up. I have ran speed tests at these points and all are showing fine.
    I also have a issue when calling my Dads land line in the uk where he has trouble hearing what im saying, muffled and echos
    I am a premium paying customer and started to get a bit frustrated.

    @Furgan, in which country are you located? Some countries and ISP-s are shaping Skype traffic. One known country is Saudi Arabia for example.
    If would help us if you could please reproduce the issue and provide logs as described in this link https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA12321/how-do-i-create-log-files under Skype for Windows Desktop and attach it to your post?

  • Video image from webcam resizes

    I am trying to develop a online presentation application which has the webcam feature. I am using JMF for this purpose. I am creating this as an applet. The first time when the page loads and the user clicks the start button to start the video, the webcam starts and the video is displayed in a small area of the applet.
    The left side of the applet displays the images. When the user clicks the next button, the next image from the vector is displayed and the image label displays the image number as 2.
    The problem is that, if the user clicks next button , the video image from the webcam gets resized. It scales itself in the horizontal direction. I have no clue as to why is this happeneing. Is this something due to the layout problem or JMF ?
    Any help in this matter will be highly appreciated.
    Regards,
    Sharad

    I guess its because you are having a BorderLayout. If with a borderlayout, components added will strech both ways (horizontally and vertically) but you seem to say that the video image strechs only horizontally, maybe components added to NORTH or SOUTH of a borderlayout would do that.
    Anyhow, try to set the layout to FlowLayout

  • Firefox Freezed by Fullscreen Flash Video (and trouble with Flash Video Settings)

    I have a desktop computer with integrated nvidia graphics card and a notebook with integrated ati graphics card.
    Both use Linux with Firefox 3.0.8 with Flash Player 10.22
    If I use fullscreen in laptop(ati) no problem at all. In the desktop station(nvidia) if it is an embed video firefox freezes completely and I have to kill firefox. If I go to the original website of the video, no problem at all.
    Wanted to try to deactivate hardware acceleration as stated in some forums, but no luck. Both computers when I right click a select settings, window opens but I can't do nothing at all, not even close them. I can only close (normaly) firefox to reopen it.

    As it turns out, Skype also crashes if I try to use video - so I'm forced to confront the possibility that the problem is actually with my PC, or the updates windows has just installed.

  • Could someone with whom I had a Skype video call h...

    Could someone hack and access my webcam and microphone after having a Skype video call with him?
    I am worried if someone with whom I had a Skype video call could hack and access my webcam and microphone anytime he wants. I am using a MacBook Pro and I know that the green light is supposed to be turned on when the webcam is being used. However, I've heard that there are hackers that can turn off the green light, so that I don't know it is being used.
    I hope you can help me. Thanks very much.

    without the aid of any virus, malware, or similar elements, it would be impossible for anyone to access or hack the account (webcam, mic, etc) of other users.

  • Image processing with imaq vision with 2 webcams on the same computer

    Hi,
    I'm currently trying to set up 2 usb webcams (logitech quickcam for notebooks pro). I want to be able to have them both run simultaneously and do some image processing with the images that I get from both cameras with labview and imaq vision.
    As of right now, I'm having trouble getting both cameras to run at the same time. Any help would be gladly appreciated. Thanks.

    The USB IMAQ driver will not support running 2 USB cameras at a time (I believe it is a limitation of the DirectShow interface). You could open one camera, acuqire an image, close the reference to that camera and then do the same for the second camera.
    If you need simultaneous acquisition, look at possibly moving to 1394 cameras or analog cameras.
