• Two questions about Lifecam Studio webcam

  I intend to use the Lifecam Studio webcam as a security camera (I'm already aware of general limitations of webcams for this application) but I have these questions:

  (1) is its ability to see in the dark, better than the Lifecam cinema or are they using the same lens and treatment for it?
  (2) if it is a USB 2.0 camera, I use a USB Extender over ethernet, which she dumbs up to USB 1.1 speeds. I really didn't care about video, but I would still high resolution photos and I know for some that USB 1.1 theoretically has enough bandwidth for them. It is therefore conceivable that I can still run high-resolution webcam, although I bring cadence (1FPS would be perfect) or the camera meets USB 1.1 in nixing its resolution down until it can maintain a constant high rate (e.g. 320 X 240 or something like that)?
  I googled these issues and do not yet have the answers!

• Install LifeCam Studio offline

  I have recently loaded several LifeCam Studio webcam on XP SP3 machines installation.

  However, the only problem that occurs is that the installation wants to an available internet connection to install the necessary drivers, even if I download the executable file of the product support page.
  There is workaround to allow offline installation? The customer that I install these cannot allow an available internet connection on these machines, for security reasons.

  Hello

  Installation requires Internet access to connect to a specific server from Microsoft.

• LifeCam studio won't launch

  Hello

  My lifecam studio worked pretty well, but I kept getting a message saying something about the requirements is not enough
  but it was the path in front of the requirements. but I was going to upgrade my CPU when even if I upgraded from AMD Phenom II x 4 965 140 Watt 3.5 Ghz
  to a Phenom II x 6 1100T 125 watt 3.4 Ghz after this update the lifecam studio software will not launch if it dose it stops a few seconds
  and said he met an error inform Microsoft of this error. I can use the webcam with other programs like adobe flash media live encoder
  and other streaming broadcasters. but I can't use it by its self like to take a photo or video to upload to youtube, things like that.
  It does not work with Skype, yahoo messenger, Microsoft, live video chat sites or programs. I was told that I had to update the bios I did
  but which has not helped with the lifecam studio, but with other hardware and software. I have the AMD Phenon II x 6 1100t clocked at 4.4 GHz
  and that did not help ether are my Nivida GeForce 260 SLI graphics card OC HD 3D ready I have 8 GB memory 1000GO drive hard windows XP
  SP3 gigabyte mother board everything is new, less than a year less than 6 months old... I put the AMD Phenom II x 4 965 at the back of the computer
  and the software worked as he did before. but I need the AMD Phenom II x 6 1100t I play a lot of games on my PC and I also live stream
  at the same time and the AMD Phenom II x 4 956 clocked to 5.2 GHz could not keep up.
  I hope I have not confused anyone, but I wanted to give as much info as I could to help him.

  Thank you!

  I discovered what the problem was.

  It is the combination of XP a 6 core CPU and the Lifecam software, they do not work together.

  To get the lifecam to launch, I have to go into the Task Manager and click on process and then right-click on the exe lifecam, then click set affinity, and then unslect 2 carrots to make lifecam think that there are only 4 hearts, then it works fine. The only downside is: you must do this every time you want to use the lifecam.

  Hi iDarkEden,

  ·         Have you made changes on the computer before this problem?

  ·         You receive an error message?

  I suggest you put the computer in a clean boot State to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  Note: After the boot minimum troubleshooting steps, follow step 7 in the link to return the computer to a Normal startupmode.

  Also uninstall and reinstall the lifecam software.

• I want to record 1080 p with my Lifecam Studio, this software is available?

  Hello

  I recently purchased a Microsoft LifeCam Studio 1080 p. I understand that the software provided record in up to 720 p.

  I'm looking for a software that will allow recording 1080. I am currently trying to connected to my Macbook Pro right now.

  My office is an Intel Core i7 920 @ 3.33 ghz with 12 GB of memory and a 2 GB XFX Black Edition 5970. So more than powerful enough to handle the hard power draw record 1080.

  In advance, I appreciate a lot of help.

• LifeCam Studio has stopped working after the firmware update?

  Hi all.

  I bought one of the new LifecamStudio 2 days ago. I installed the camera, following the instructions of course. At the end of installation, I was able to get my self in the window of the Lifecam software, up to now, no problem, the device worked. Suddenly, a pop-up message will appear, telling me that the firmware of the device should be upgraded, then I pressed OK. The update of the firmware started but was abandoned shortly with an errormessage, saying the upgrade was not successful. I tried to reinstall the firmware, but now he tells me Hat I have the latest firmware installed. The nproblem is therefore now that, when I instert my camera in USB port windows find the camera, but as soon as I start any program it uses the camera he's leaving a Lifecam icon (in the hardware Manager that is) to an unknown unit. Software Lifecam studio told me that there is no camera installed. I installed the camera on other computers without a bit of luck.

  / Stefan

  Fixed it :)
  In the Device Manager under imaging devices I've seen "Webcam" - before the botched fw update, it said 'Microsoft LifeCam Studio' and was a diff driver.  I rolled back the driver (or if it does not work you can force it to use one of the program files \ lifecam) then reinstalled lifecam - my cam works now.  Now - what's the problem with this update utility and why it changes what is driving the camera uses?

• LifeCam Studio works with laptop, not the Office? (Pilot questions)

  I have a LifeCam Studio that works with my Acer laptop but does not work with my desktop computer.

  Skype and ManyCam on the desktop, suffice to say that the unit is used with another program. I uninstalled and reinstalled the program and the driver manager devices, as well as the uninstall and reinstall the LifeCam software.

  In my laptop Device Manager, the camera returns as LifeCam and a composite device, but on the desktop, it only installs under imagery as "webcam."

  Any ideas?

  Hello

  If another application has control of the camera it is not available for use by others
  programs up to what he was released by the control program. Usually, the camera will
  be released when you close a program. Check in the Task Manager and close the program
  If shown, or restart. Some messengers has control of the camera, so you would need
  to ensure that the program has closed before the unit would be available for use
  in other programs.

  See the section "" I see the following error message: the camera is in use by another program "article."

• LifeCam Studio API

  I'm developing an industrial machine vision application that uses two cameras LifeCam Studio in a configuration of stereo camera using OpenCV.

  In order to perform a proper Stereo 3D calibration, I need to disable auto focus entirely. This is necessary because update dot is improtant part optical characteristics and that's exactly what the calibration procedure seeks to characterize. Cannot perform a good calibraton so change the optical characteristics of the camera.

  This also applies to a 2D calibration only camera.

  Is there an API released for manipulation of the camera? If this isn't the case, when it comes out?
