Webcams

[Barbouz]

Hi all,

All is in the title, whenever I use the webcam (quickcapture, xlite, skype, etc...)
the process corresponding to the program which is using the webcam goes up to 100%...

It's quite annoying, is this a normal behavior ?
With xlite that launch itself with a high priority process, it's unusable...

I got the 10.0.0.1438 drivers.

Thanks for any help.

Gaël.

Welcome to the Logitech Community Webcam Forum Barbouz!

At this point, I can't help anyone with QuickCam 10.x...since I don't have a copy...and it is not on the download servers yet.

I assume QuickCam 10 is for the new STX and Ultra...though you say your 5000 came with it...correct?

Logitech has made no mention of a QuickCam 10.x release as well.

Thanks for the reply.

Yep, the quickcam pro 5000 I bought came with the 10.x drivers on the CD.

I tried the 9.5 from the logitech website but I got problem with it.
The (seems famous) problem of usb device unknown, and when sometimes the camera is recognize, it appear
as a generic usb device and not a quickcam 5000. And then even if it's recognize as plugged sometimes it just
don't work...


With the 10.x I didn't have those kind of problems, but the cpu is maxed out whenever I use it.
Windows is still usable but it's still annoying

Just if it make any difference it's a quickcam pro 5000 from the french market...

Logitech would release versions in *all* languages.

Can you post a screen shot of your "About QuickCam (10)" to verify the software version that is installed?

Here you go ->

OK...Thanks!

Now all we have to do is wait until Logitech updates the Downloads area so I can get a look at it.

[Barbouz]

ok thanks
I'll check the forum from time to time...

[KachiWachi]

Sounds good!

[KachiWachi]

Could you tell me what date, country, and from what store you purchased your 5000?

Thanks.

Hi, sure

I bought 3 quickcam pro 5000 on the 18 august 2006, was directly from a store in Paris/France
but they have a website -> http://www.lcdi.fr/index.php?activate=affichage_produit&id_categorie=-1&id_produit=3512

Now that I look at it, it says all over that this quickcam has a free headset included, I don't have any (in all 3 cams)...
So I'm wondering if there is another version of the quickcam pro 5000 that has no headset and perhaps didn't work so well
like an end of stock or something similar ?

Thanks for your help.
