Satellite L645 - why my webcam only shows me?

My Satellite L645 came with the already installed webcam. I've never used, but I have to now.
When I turn it on it displays the image of a kind of tropical lagoon instead of my face.

I don't know where this picture is from is not a picture that I have on my computer.

If I hit capture the camera takes a picture of the lagoon. How can I get the web cam to show my face instead of this generic lagoon.

I looked at the help section but no luck.

Hello

Take a look at this thread:
http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?MessageID=188973

There is a solution:
Go to the bar of the webcam software (should come out from above or from the side)
Click on the bottom option "Effect" in their 'net', click and click on 'OFF '.

  • Satellite A660 - webcam only shows a black image

    Hey,.

    I have a satellite A660 PSAW3A-07P00R running 64-bit windows 7.
    No reason the webcam just stopped working. Whenever I y access either by the program of toshiba or others (such as Skype), I am facing a black image despite the blue camera power light is always on. The wecam application works fine and everything, it'll even take photos and videos even if he won't save them because it captures anything.

    I checked in the Manager of tasks, and despite me running on windows 7 64-bit, the program is displayed as ' TWebCamera.exe * 32 "leads me to believe that he is trying to run 32-bit...
    I reinstalled the driver for the webcam 64-bit of the toshiba site _3 times_ yet I still have the same problem (Yes, I mean 3).

    It's really frustrating me and any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks, Luke.

    Hello

    This s really strange behavior, mate

    But I can only imagine this problem is driver-related and not a hardware problem then try this:
    Remove the webcam driver and restart your computer, run CCleaner (freeware tool) to clean and fix registry problems and reboot once again. Then visit the official page of Toshiba and and download the new driver of the webcam for your model and the OS.

    Normally after the next reboot the webcam should start working with success.
    Can you confirm this? :)

  • Webcam on Satellite U500-17 x only shows black photo

    Hello

    I bought a portable 17 U500 x about a month ago. I'm on Win7 64 bit version that came with the pc.
    The webcam worked perfectly in the early days. Then I didn t use it for awhile and now it only shows black picture on webcam of Toshiba, msn or Skype software, all have the same problem.
    I didn't change any setting of the device. they have all of the default settings. The blue led on the side of the camera turns on but only a black screen.
    If I use the software Toshiba cam and try to take a picture it says "failed to capture the photo.
    On "Device Manager", the tab for imaging devices shows usb 2.0 uvc webcam without error and with the updated drivers. I get no error at startup or when opening the cam applications.

    I got drivers win7 European Toshiba webcam website "20091112111752" and them again after uninstalling the cam Toshiba Software I had installed. Also reinstalled the device of face recognition.
    The problem persists...

    Any idea?

    Best regards

    Hi Costa

    It is not easy to say what the problem is here. All that you have done is just but I think it's time for a more radical, but also more effective solution (test). Reinstall the operating system and test the features of cam with the factory settings.

    It should work again. If it's not... maybe service?

  • Satellite L650 - Webcam always shows the same picture

    Thanks in advance

    Hi planetj,.

    I think you mean the webcam screen coverage, you can disable the webcam software if you click effect and select them OFF and it will no longer appear.

    With all due respect, you are incorrect. You simply did not notice before D drive. D drive is a logical drive. To the best of my knowledge there is no way to prevent it from the show. However, simply disable the system for D drive restore.

  • Satellite P300D-110 integrated webcam does not work properly.

    Hi all

    as the title suggests, the webcam built-in in my Toshiba Satellite P300D-110 does not work correctly. Allow me to explain. Using the camera Assistance software I can take pictures and record music. If I try to record a video preview screen comes black and the end result on black, pitch black aswell tuns.

    Whenever I try to use my camera with applications such as MSN Live Messenger, Skype or on community websites, using Firefox, Internet Explorer or Safari the app crashes.

    * How what happened? *

    You tell me. That's how it happened;
    * 1st day: I booted up my laptop and looked at my installation fresh and clean Windows vista Home premium. I tried my webcam using the webcam support software and it worked like a charm.
    * Day 2: once I start my laptop and try to start my webcam only to find out that he is no longer functions.
    To give a quick summary of the thread;

    Help of camera Assistance software provided by Toshiba, can I take pictures.
    Help of camera Assistance software provided by Toshiba, I can record the sound.
    Using camera Assistance software provided by Toshiba I can _ * NOT * _ save or preview of a video.
    * I can't start my camera using any other application such as, but not limited to; MSN Live Messenger, Skype, Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safar.
    * I downloaded and isntalled the latest drivers on the Toshiba site.
    Portable listen is on a weekday.

    I'm not sure what more I can do, all I want is for the webcam works, if someone can help me please do.
    And if possible WITHOUT having to reinstall Windows Vista Home Premium.
    I have not yet used and would not do as a solution to all the problems that might occur in the future.

    Sincerely,

    a sad customer.

    Camera Assistance software using provided by Toshiba I can't save or preview of a video.
    Can you please describe the steps how you try to do this? I have to ask you this question because it works fine on my laptop. When the recording is finished Player opens and you can see saved the film. This is the avi format and at the top of this player, you can see the path where the film is recorded.

    Strangest thing for me, is that you can not use it with Skype. OK for MSN is not perfect, but there is absolutely no problem with Skype. Make sure the settings and it should work somehow.

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    192 MB of RAM?
    I don t think that and I think that you have something so bad you overlooked something or you didn t he checked correctly or you are which means that the memory of the graphics card.

    Available RAM can be checked in the BIOS.
    You can see more details in DirectX also. Start this tool by using the dxdiag command.
