Video Chat Applications (Non-Logitech)

[DBlake9]

Hi, I have a Logitech Orbit MP webcam, and I can't get it to work with skype, i see my self and everything in the settings and in the bottom corner, but my friends don't see my video, What do I do? they click on the video option to answer it.. and that doesn't work.. Also, I know there is nothing wrong with my other cameras that I have, my other webcams work without any problems on skype.

Hi DBlake9,

I suggest you check the FAQ Skype issues with your Logitech webcam I would also like to know which OS are you on and if you have a picture of yourself when you launch the Logitech Webcam Software and click on Quick Capture or Record Video.

Yes, i see myself in the preview box in the skype settings... But when i install the logitech software for the camera, it says it isn't compatible with windows 7.

I am on Windows 7.. When i try to use skype with the camera on my computer, skype freezes, and then says therre is a problem with the call, the problem has happened with more than 1 contact.

Hello DBlake9,

Unfortunately, the software and drivers that this webcam need to work properly are not supported on a Windows 7 OS.
