Hi!

I just installed the newest version of Telecorder. I am using Windows 7 64bit and the newest version of Skype for Windows. When I make a video call, Telecorder does not recognize any webcam although they're on and working fine in the Skype call. Telecorder shows the audio streams only ... it looks like this:

I read the threads in the forum here and followed the advices to deinstall Skype. So I did the following: Deinstall Skype - reboot - reinstall Skype - reboot - try Telecorder again. It's still the same.

What can I do?

Cheers,

When you installed Telecorder was Skype closed? If not do install again. Go into the taskbar and right mouse click Skype. Select quit. Then do a fresh install.

Hi Cheryl,

thanks a lot for your reply! I didn't know Skype has to be closed during the installation. I followed your instructions and now it's working without problems! :)

Cheers,
