I just installed skype on my F12 yesterday, the webcam I am using is a logitech C200, which has built-in microphone. I got the video working fine but not the microphone. No sound can be recorded.The same microphone works fine on my Windows 7, so at least I can eliminate hardware issue.I have never used microphone on my F12 before
I have an HP dv4 1313dx, pavilion notebook computer. The Built in webcam seems to work OK, but I have absolutely no sound registering when I speak over webchat , or over just sound recordings when I talk at the computer. I'm not sure if it's a software issue or not. I upgraded to 10.4 beta because 9.10 wouldn't let me run my wireless card. So upgrading to the new beta version solved that, but as I said I noticed the built in mic on my notebook isn't picking up any sound. This is whether I'm using Skype, sound recorder, or AMSN for webchats.
After having fixed the video on my webcam to use it with Skype I want to use the microphone as well...
Skype offers two microphones that seem to be related to the USB webcam. I have tried both of them and with different settings in kmix where I see a tab called "usb camera" with a microphone slider and a tick box. There is also an option to use "audio gain control". no success with all possible combinations.
Then I tried to use the microphone with a small software called "flrec", no success either.
I've just installed Ubuntu Karmic on a HP pavilion AMD 64 bit.I've a weird problem: the microphone works good, but using skype 2.1 beta, it stops working when te my webcam. Even after restarting skype, the microphone doesn't work. To make the microphone work, it seems to me that I've to reboot.
I own a "Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Ultra Vision" web cam with a microphone. I have successfully installed it, I can get fedora to recognize it and even view video through all the web cam applications I've tried including vlc, cheese, and camstreem. It was automatically detected by Fedora and took no "tweaking" of my own. The problem I'm having is I don't know how to access the audio. When I go to the pulse audio applet or volume contol (mixer) I can see my quick cam as in input, and I can even watch the audio meter move and respond to sounds I am making. But I don't know how to tell any applications where to get sound from... my video source is /dev/video0, what is my audio source? Since my audio level meter moves when i say things or make sounds, I assume it is there and ready, I just don't know how to access it. I figure this should be pretty simple. I'd like to be able to record video/audio, or even just use the mic separately.
I have a Dell system with a Dell SP2309 monitor. I have been told it's supposed to have a built in webcam and microphone. How can I chek to see if this is true and if so...how do I get them to work?
I've been having problems setting up my microphone and webcam for internet use. I won a Microsoft LifeCam VX-6000 on the internet and it doesn't work on ubuntu. I'm sure it works because I also have Windows Vista installed on my laptop and it works perfectly well when using Skype, Windows Live Messenger and even Gtalk.
This webcam model has an integrated microphone, which doesn't work either, even though it works just fine on Windows. I have tried to configure the mic, but when I test-record the sound all I can hear is just noise. I have test-recorded using a headset (which also works on Windows), but I didn't have any success, so I have to believe that I haven't configured something the way it was supposed to be or that a driver is missing.
Most of Audio is not operational including the Mic, the drivers are ALSA and,PulseAudio, it seems the Pulse is sitting on top of ALSA, and blocking its function, the alasmixer , only displays one column, which is the MASTER.The rest of Speakers Mics etc are not there. I tried using SKYPE, the Mic does not function at all,
I have on my Asus x59sl laptop webcam with built-in webcam. Here is the lsusb output:

I have a problem with my mic....and I have no idea why. The speakers on my laptop work perfectly fine, so sound output isn't a problem, and Fedora seems to identify that I have a mic somewhere (I actually have one next to my webcam and a plug for an external mic). However, none of the two work, even though I have turned up the volume everywhere for the mic, even in alsamixer in the Terminal. How to get my mic working? My laptop is a Acer Aspire 6530.
I recently installed GUVCView to record videos via my webcam but my built-in microphone isn't working. Is there a driver for mine? The computer is an HP G60-530US, and the sound card is a Conxenant audio card and the webcam is a Chicony HP Webcam-101.
I am running F13 64 on my HP G72 Laptop. Everything seems to be working fine with the exception of my microphone. When I go into alsamixer I have to manually select my card HDA Intel G45, however it reverts back to the one named default.
I have saved the settings using "alsactl store" which does indeed lock in the volume levels but doesn't make the Intel card the default.
Kmix is of no use and the alsmixer GUI is terrible.
So my question is how do I make the HDA Intel card default?
so forgive me if this is something easy to do that I just haven't figured out yet, but I just got Skype and my mic isn't working. I've seen other threads that wanted me to install pavucontrol, but that doesn't recognise my internal mic. Another one said to unmute my mic in terminal, but when I ran the command, it didn't work. Does anyone know how to fix it?I'm using an Acer Aspire One netbook and the internal webcam works, so the hardware is working.Thanks for your time!---------- Post added at 04:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:35 AM ----------
I just installed ubuntu lucid x64 on an HP dv7-3065dx and even though the installation went pretty smoothly, every time I open cheese or anything else that uses the webcam, the microphone all of a sudden cuts off. It doesn't receive input. However if I use the microphone without camera then the microphone works.... Is the webcam somehow crashing the microphone?? Is there something wrong with pulseaudio? The webcam works great and is recognized as "HP Webcam".
trying to use the internal mic for skype, with no such luck. its an HP Pavilion dv-XXXX (<<i want to say 5000 or 6000, but it isnt in front of me ATM), restarting didnt help, and everything is updated (Fedora 14).
This is widely known and documented on the internet, and apparently no trivial fixes (alsa settings etc.) will solve this issue.
The best written reference for this is this Ubuntu bug tracker page: [URL]
It also doesn't work in Ubuntu but a person there (c4pp4) managed to create a patch for this.
Do you think this patch could be integrated into Fedora? What could I do to make this happen? Also, do you recommend any other approaches to this issue?
My Internet videos and sounds work, but when i went into call skype test, they said my microphone was not working. I also tried to test my video and that is not working as well. So I believe my microphone/webcam is not installed properly. How do I check if its installed at all? How do I test it?
I've fedora 14 on my system. My usb camera and avermedia tv tuner card is not working with it. It was working with fedora 13. I reinstalled fedora 14 again, still no result. cheese webcam booth shows black screen..
The Fedora 14 (and 13) pwc Philips Webcam Driver.is only supporting 160x120 resolution (and nothing higher such as 640x480). Also not supporting some other things correctly, I suspect.I say so having tested multiple web camera software and either they don't work (because they have no setting for low res) or they do work if settable to low res., but not for any higher res.I also have a working setpwc tool which shows the driver does not support framerate resetting.I have a Toucam and Toucam Pro - same for both.Also these units worked fine under Fedora 11, and under earlier versions even Red Hat 4.But I usually got the latest pwc from Saillaird.org and compiled it to get full support but there are no more current sources there anymore, and the older ones don't compile.But as I am saying under F11 it was fully correct, now under F13 and 14 it is broken.
My webcam was working when I installed Fedora12. But now it doesn't work after about 2 months of playing with this OS. Because of this, I decided to reinstall it's driver.I downloaded it from ATrpms website, but if I try to install it the terminal says"/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31.12-174.2.3_1.cubbi_tuxonice.fc12.x86_64 is needed by uvc-kmdl-2.6.31.12-174.2.3_1.cubbi_tuxonice.fc12-0.20090806-4.fc12.x86_64"File needed: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31.12-174.2.3_1.cubbi_tuxonice.fc12.x86_64File wanted to be installed: uvc-kmdl-2.6.31.12-174.2.3_1.cubbi_tuxonice.fc12-0.20090806-4.fc12.x86_64
I have a logitech c310 webcam. When I open cheese, I get a blank. Also my wifi adapter stops working - it doesn't show up on lsusb anymore. How do I fix this? How do I get both my wifi adapter and camera to work at the same time and how do I get my webcam to work? The adapter is D-Link DWA-125. Here are the outputs for lsusb:
how to find out what driver my webcam is using and where its located the webcam it self works but goes from normal to dark after a minute of use and would like to fix it
my microphone is not working, I cannot get it to work, I do not think Ubuntu is recognizing my built in microphone because it just says mic, is there a way I can identify what it is recognizing as my mic in terminal?
I've been running problems lately when I've tried to get my headset's microphone working with my Fujitsu Amilo PA 1510 laptop. I have plugged in the jacks and I can hear myself breathing/talking and I can see the "input level" -bar moving in sound preferences.
Mp3s are playing nicely, so does the test sound with Yast. I copied some outputs which you might need to help me figure out whats wrong with my settings.
The motherboard has an onboard sound chip (which I do not use), and I am actively using the PCI sound card (Aureon 5.1, CM8738).
The microphone is coming with the webcam Logitech E 3500 (which worked under 11.1, but updating to 11.2 keeps me without skype functionality).
