Hi there,
I've got a built-in webcam in my laptop (emachines G725). It seems to work normally during video calls etc. as well as when taking photos, but keeps turning off suddenly during recording. Actually the webcam stays on, but it stops recording... it also saves the recording it's made until then... Initially, it worked normally, then it started doing this after some 7-8 mins, but now it happens nearly immediately, as soon as I start recording...
I've been making short recordings these days (up to 10-12 mins) and compressing them to a smaller size using Windows Media Encoder... I wonder if that might have harmed the camera somehow...
I don't really know much about these things, and hope someone here might help me.
Cheers,
David
