Troubleshooting

Webcam not detected by the computer

Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to both the webcam and the computer. Try a different USB port. Restart your computer. Verify that the webcam is enabled in your video conferencing software's settings.

Poor video quality or blurry image

Clean the webcam lens with a microfiber cloth. Ensure the autofocus is functioning; if not, check software settings. Verify adequate lighting in your environment. Check if the maximum frame rate or resolution is being limited by your software or internet connection.

Audio issues (low volume, static)

Ensure the built-in microphone is selected as the default audio input device in your computer's sound settings and in your video conferencing application. Check for obstructions around the microphone holes. Test with a different application to rule out software-specific issues.
