From facing camera

Open Majkwin opened this issue 8 years ago • 12 comments

Hello @Kaijun , after installing Yours newest DSDT files I noticed that front facing camera stopped working. I though it was related with updating to Sierra, but now I'm back on El capitan and camera still doesn't work. Could You give me some hints what could be wrong?

What happens if you open facetime? On my side, the camera turns on and works if i start facetime. In addition, camera is also successfully started in browser using HTML5. Demo: https://davidwalsh.name/demo/camera.php

How about yours?

With updated DSDT's system doesn't see any conected camera. I know that on old ones it was working.

This is what system report says: "No picture capture device was found" (translated). So I assume system doesn't see any connected camera...

No idea what's going on with yours. image Mine works fine.

maybe SMBIOS?

Kaijun avatar Sep 17 '16 20:09 Kaijun

No, SMBIOS is fine, just like I said i was using this config all the time :) Facetime and iMessage works. I even tried updating BIOS to 2.30 but it didn't help. Can You tell me Kaijun what did You modify in newest DSDT's? Only graphics ID?

... after some reboots, my camera also doesn't work anymore. It seems that this happens accidentally... image

I have macOS Sierra 10.12.4, and camera works after creating a single profile with CamTwist...

Works with Photo Booth, FaceTime and VLC, untested with other software, but should be fine...
