Memberhey guys….i’m using a fujifilm finepix 3800 digital camera as a webcam, and I can’t seem to adjust any other settings in MSN messenger 6.2(or any other program) other than roll :/…it detects the camera and I can see myself a little bit but is way too dark.i have a program that adjusts the gamma/brightness/contrast of my whole screen and not just the webcam :(. any suggestions on how to fix this problem? your help would kindly be appricated =)

MemberKickboXer692,
You are saying you have tried going through a MSN Messenger chat window like so:
Tools > Web Camera Settings…
OR[/b]
Tools > Audio/Video Tuning Wizard…
If you have, what happens?
If you haven’t, please try it and tell us what happens.:)
Also, please more information if possible, system OS, Messenger version, addons/plugins. All could be useful information;). ThanksSeptember 3, 2004 at 1:48 am #73030KickboXer692
MemberI have windows XP SP1
512 megs DDR Ram
nvidia geforce4ti 4400 video card
realtek ac’97 onboard sound 🙁
using MSN messenger 6.2…Now when I goto webcam settings the only thing I can do is goto “advanced” then once in the advanced setting, the only setting I can mess with is “roll” and “mirror my image” I cannot adjust brightness,contrast, etc…
When I goto video/audio setting…it detects my camera, I select it. then on the next screen where it says “adjust camera so that the image below is what you want” .. its almost completly dark and is in fact not what I want lol :(.

MemberKickboXer692,

Memberi probably should have asked this first out of all the questions, but, when you bought this camera, did it say it could be used as a Webcam through your computer?
Also were there no software besides the drivers that came with the camera?

Memberyes it can be switched to pc camera mode in its settings….and the software that came with it(besides drivers) was just a picture editing program.
