USB video capture not working

I'm having trouble with Skype recognizing USB video capture devices.  I've been doing this for years and now can't seem to get it to work.  I only do this every few months, so I might have missed a post.  I have tried 4 different computers with 4 different USB capture devices, it would seem it;'s a Skype issue.  Anyone else have some ideas?  Will Skype repair the issue?
Thanks for your toughts!

This works for me. I have to do it every once in awhile after powering up my PC.
It may or may not work for you.
Open Windows Device Manager and for each Universal Serial Bus (USB) Host Controller right-click on it and then left-click on Properties. Ensure that the Device Status TextBox shows "This device is working properly." If not, Disable and Enable that USB Host Controller.

    I\'ve got almost the same problem using the G4MX440-VT8X128 http://www.msicomputer.com/product/vga/vga_detail.asp?model=G4MX440-VT8X128.
    There's a little bit difference on the problem, that is:  on device manager, everything is OK, nothing red neither yellow.
    When I try to capture, it captures only a blank movie / picture.
    Did you make yours to work ?
    Any hint to give me ?
    P.S.: I\'ve tried with Windows Movie Maker and Virtual Dub, my WinProducer which came with the box bundled is not working properly, it (only winproducer) crashes during the boot (any hint about this also ?).

  • USB hub does not work!  Help

    I was attempting to install a KVM switch for my G4 and G5 that required me attaching my keyboard and mouse to the usb port on the back of the monitor.
    The USB hub does not work! Monitor cable has no bent pins, and works perfectly for video with all my Mac's, G4's, G5's. The problem is I have had this monitor awhile and never tried these ports so apple won't help.
    Anyone have any suggestions why these ports don't work and if there is a fix?
    Can any one recommend a KVM switch that supports ADC, and USB so I bypass this hub.
    Thanks

    Some USB 2.0 hardware works very well w/USB 3.0 & some don't.  Suggest that you contact the sound card manufacturer & ask them.  Perhaps they can recommend a work-a-round. 
    Another user posted about the same problem some weeks ago regarding a sound card. 

  • Usb drives are not working, usb drives are not working

    USB drives are not working.  Please help

    Non of my Western Digital drives are working anymore on several different Mac computers, one Mac can still work with the drive so I am not getting it up dated to the new OS.
    If they told me that all my 2 TB drives would no longer work if I got the new OS I would not have updated.
    There needs to be a fix, I can't afford all new drives plus they have video on them that I need to use.
    Also iPhoto and Garage Band have disapeared I can't find any trace of them???

    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

    (If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

  • Apple USB keyboard does not work with one internal usb port

    Hi everyone,
    hope someone can help me to solve my problem. I have a MPB13 retina late 2013 since something like 3 months. I have additional screen (dell), usb wired keyboard (apple) and BT magic mouse.
    Since a few days, my usb keyboard does not work well. It only want to work properly when plugged to the rights side usb port internal port and not anymore on the left one. It also work on a usb external concentrator. Before, I had no problem, it worked perfectly. There was no problem such as cofee on it...
    After searching the web on such problem, I tries a few things such as:
    I tried the keyboard on another computer (windows): works fine
    I tried usb stick and external DVD reading on the left internal usb ports: works fine
    I switch the MPB off and turn it back on: the usb keyboard still does not work on the left usb port
    I tried the SMC and PRAM reset : nothing
    Any idea ??
    Thanks
    Guillaume

    I'm facing the same problem, found any solutions ?

    Do you have some idea ....
    Bye.

    I have done the following:
    Downloaded the patched hal version.
    used makepkg in /abs/local/trunk/ to create a pkg for pacman
    used sudo pacman -U pkgname to install it.
    used sudo nano /etc/hal/fdi/policy/preferences.fdi to create the fdi file with the following content:
    saved the file and removed my ntfs entryes from fstab and rebooted. and still there is no automount off ntfs partitions.
    have i done something wrong?
    br fjodork
    WARNING: what follows is a guide of what did work for me, I'm still in an early stage of learning linux, so please correct me if anything of what follows is wrong/dangerous/stupid. As I said, this worked for me, it's not pretty, since I was learning each step on the fly and I'm sure there are better ways to do this.
    So fjodork, you seem to have done the the necessary steps, though i couldn't get it to work until i first removed hal without dependencies
    pacman -Rd hal
    it will give you some warning about the dependencies, ignore  it since we are reinstalling hal in a few steps.
    First i tried to follow Raymano's link, obviously it showed me nothing in the browser so I thought it might be a broken link.
    So I downloaded the source tarball from here http://hal.freedesktop.org/releases/hal-0.5.10.tar.gz
    unpacked it changed the /tools/hal-storage-mount.c as per Milfadoodle's instructions.
    at first I tried to compile directly from source, the process would finish without a glitch though after reboot nothing changed, as if hal weren't
    installed, i guess there were issues with paths. anyway read on
    Then repacked the source in tarball, copied it to /var/abs/extra/system/hal and modified the PKGBUILD as follows
    makedepends=('pkgconfig' 'gperf')
    options=('!libtool')
    install=hal.install
    source=(${pkgname}-${pkgver}.tar.gz #removed url so makepkg looks in the current directory for the tarball
        hal
        hal-policy.patch
        cryptsetup_location.patch
        hal-0.5.9-hide-diagnostic.patch
        ntfs3g-valid-options.patch)
    md5sums=('6641c30a27c00485c6accac5110ff911' # replace with md5sum of your package's sourceball (run md5sum filename)
             '882f67668cb14a0a9e4a27ef22278027'
             '5ba8b610aa9763a5f42b9f7cbd7a86ad'
    then makepkg (i had to add --asroot, don't ask why
    and finally pacman -U hal-0.5.10-1-i686.pkg
    another reboot and everything worked without a glitch!:D (yeah i know i still haven't got rid of the reboot mentality )
    I have also put the policy files as per the wiki instructions.
    PS: I know this is a dirty way to getting things done but as i said, I'm just starting
    If anyone could comment/correct/explain this post I'd be more than happy, the automount issue was bothering me for about a month now (you'll say why do I need ntfs in the first place? well, I only recently switched for Linux as my primary OS, these are some relics of the M$ era

  • USB ports does not work

    Hi I have problems with not working USB ports. It used to work. I downloaded actual drivers at msi.com for my gaming notebook GX 60 Destroyer and now my USB ports does not work. What should I do?

    What driver have you updated?
    Try to do an EC firmware reset by removing the battery and the AC adapter then put the battery back with AC adapter attached.
    Same questions like Pegasus asked, does all ports not working? which one exactly? What OS are you using?
    Have you done any changes to the system? (for example: self-install OS or changing OS)

  • Video does not work in iOS 8.3

    I have the iPhone 6 128GB. I did update to iOS 8.3.
    I have some problems after the update... video does not work, it wont play, i can click on the play button but nothing happens.
    The problem ocurs in safari when i visit news sites and try to play video in articles.
    When i get snapchat with video... it wont play, it is only black screen with the seconds counting down... and some times it just craches the snap app...
    I cant watch videos in instagram or facebook...
    I live in Norway and I think it is stupid that Apple still has not fixed the keyboard... the "123" key and the "globe" key swithc place with each other in portrait and landscape mode... why...!?! ( this is when i use Norwegian keyboard )
    Yes i have rebooted the phone holding in both buttons until apple logo is visible 2 times
    Yes i have rebooted the phone even more
    Yes i have quitted the apps that was open and the only way i get the black screen away in snapchat is by killing the App...
    Apple... i am not impressed.

    Here is the strangest thing, what works for you does not necessarily help other.  I rebooted my phone several times, and yes, youtube finally worked, but only for some hours then it did not work. I did quit all Apps and rebooted with home and power button pressed inn until apple logo appeared and disappeared again, i had to press power to start the phone. I repeated this step. Now the videos where playing in all apps.  The next morning i did get a snap on my iPhone, i tried to see it, but it was only black screen with text and a clock counted down to 0, but it stopped on 1... and the app froze.
    I dubble clicked the home button, and there where 25 active apps, apps that i had not used for days and note... i manually quitted all apps the day before... how did this apps appear again ? The Apps that where terminated do appear again after reboot... i don't know why, i have still trouble to see video. I hope for a fix from Apple, because i have so much i don't want to loose in my phone.

  • Video does not Work in iTunes Store please help! annoying problem!

    The video does not work in the itunes store. I get no picture, only sound when i want to preview a music video or a movie trailer. No video at all. However, i can watch my movies and music videos that i already own. Please, is there any smart guy who knows a solution?

    I'm having this same issue. I tried some things but still couldn't get it to work the way it used too.
    It will not play the video portion in iTunes only the audio if I click on the song. If I switch the settings from Music Video to TV show in the info tab, the file plays fine. If I open it in Quicktime, the file plays fine.
    I've tried changing the preferences so that the video will play in the iTunes window, in a separate window, etc. and all it plays is the audio and will show the artwork instead of playing the video.

  • Where left off video setting not working in ios 7

    Since upgrading to ios 7 the 'Where left off' stting on the Video is not working. I have turned it off/on and it is ticked. Every time I switch off the iPad 2 and then turn it on again the last video played place is not remembered - it always resets at the beginning. This happens on my iPhone 4s as well as that is at ios 7 now as well. Both devices were OK with remembering the video place before upgrading.
    The videos are produced from Handbrake and not store purchases but I dont have any store purchases to try it out.
    Anyone else seeing this (or not)
    Paul

    I have this problem too since IOS7, except I don't have to switch my ipad off, I simply have to have not watched a video for a bit and when I switch back to the vid app it forgets all over again. VLC looks to be the much better app
