Quality of the webcam on C720-2848

The quality of the webcam is not very good for something marketed as having an "HD webcam.

It seems pretty grainy, almost as if there is some sort of "oil painting" of the applied filter.

There is another user who sees the same topic, see here: http://www.reddit.com/r/chromeos/comments/1vhbpg/acer_c720_webcam_quality/

Are there drivers, or something that needs to be updated?  I just tried a wash of power without change.

The camera of the Chromebook C720 is 1.0 MP HD webcam. Looking at the photo published on Reddit, it seems to be in line with what I would expect of a 1.0 MP webcam. If you feel that your camera has a real hardware problem, you can contact technical support in your region for information on repair.

    It's not easy to talk about the quality of the webcam without seeing and you shouln t compare the quality of the webcam with different products. The built-in webcam is very small compared to USB webcams or very practical cameras.

  • Satellite C50-A483 and Win8.1 - quality of the Webcam is very low

    Hi friends,

    Yesterday, I bought a new laptop Toshiba Satellite C50-A483, single language 8.1 for Windows, 64-bit, which

    I am very disappointed by the results of the webcam, its too fuzzy, there is no options to change the settings for the webcam, previously I had Toshiba which saw was CAMERA ASSISTANT SOFTWARE, I can adjust the webcam settings, even if there is a night mode, but unfortunately I have not all the options, at the present time

    can anyone suggest Me the right options so that I can have good results from my webcam.

    Thanks in advance,

    The application of Toshiba webcam is available for Win 7 systems but the Win 8 and 8.1 of Windows system use the webcam from Microsoft to the own address application.

    So if you use Win 8.1, you must use the Microsoft internal webcam application

    With regard to the quality of webcam photo:
    Different Toshiba laptops are equipped with different webcams.
    C50-A483 satellite was equipped with a * 0.92 mega pixel * webcam supporting a built-in microphone

    For example a Satellite A660 was equipped with a 1.3 M mega pixel webcam

    If still notice you and difference between a 0.92MP and 1.3MP camera.

  • Video quality of the first transformer TF201 ASUS

    I searched through the support network and can't seem to find a solution to the issue I'm having. So here:

    I'm running a first processor ASUS TF201, updated to the most recent version of the ICS (4.0.3).

    Version of the camera is TF201 - 0 x 9900

    Kernel is 2.6.39.4 - 00003-g12de84f

    Build number is IML74K. US_epad - 9.4.2.21 - 20120323

    I installed Skype for Android today (May 5, 2012) since the game of Google. It does not show an available update after installation.

    I am able to use Skype, audio/video... video calls (front and rear cameras) and audio work (using the loose term). Latency is less than 1 sec, but audio and video are synchronized, is acceptable. The problem is that the video quality is EXTREMELY poor, but only when using Skype. There no visible difference in video quality when going from the front to the rear camera... which is strange given the large difference in the qualities of the two cameras, there should be at least SOME difference in quality.

    I also Webcam installed on my first IP and webcam7 installed on my desktop, the video quality is remarkable when using of IP Webcam/webcam7 to test cameras.

    Is there a fix for video quality on the first? I see that other people report a 'green' screen with ICS, but I don't have this problem.

    In the images below, the first is the front camera, the second the camera back. In the two images, the magnified image is the premium, is the smallest of my office.

    Image 1:

    Image 2:

    Please notify. Thank you.

    Good news! With the new update of Skype, the issue seems to be fixed. Thanks Skype! Now I can enjoy video skyping of good quality.

    Hello

    In any case, you must change the parameters of the webcam. If you move the mouse on the side of the life of the screen that the webcam menu should appear. Then click Properties and there you can change all settings, brightness, contrast, profiles, etc..
    Just a little more play these settings to find the best for you. ;)

  • Satellite A350 - plastik cover at the edge of the webcam to remove?

    Video of the webcam integrated my new A350 Satellite is - even in good light conditions - very blurry, the integrated microfon tune is - even regulated to max - very low.

    In front of the webcam, there's a blanket of plastik (written Web camera).
    At this cover to remove for better/original video?

    If so, how to do? I tried gently, but do not want to damage anything.

    THX in advance
    Rainer

    > In front of the webcam, there is a plastic (webcam wrote about it).
    > At this cover to remove for better/original video?

    No! This plastic cover cannot be deleted. He fixed s!
    I have a U400 and I've got the same guy with the same coverage you cannot delete it certainly!

    If your webcam image is too fuzzy so I would recommend activation of the night mode in the properties of the webcam!
    In the audio settings of the webcam properties you can increase the volume (volume mic) in order to obtain better sound quality.

    However, when I imported new photos by map SD pictures, I found that the quality of the preview (small images) of newly imported photos image is extremely low compared to iPhoto.

    "With iCloud and optimize" storage "enabled, you will only seethe optimized versions, until the full original size has been downloaded from iCloud.

    In addition, the generation of previews takes awhile. It helps to keep the Photos during the night to get all the background treatment after you have imported new photos.
