No, its not normal. When you add the VideoService, have you completely removed any previous VideoProducer services? Perhaps a previously configured VideoProducer still has control of your webcam video device, so that its not visible to the VideoService. It would be the same as if you added 2 VideoProducer services; the 1st would see the webcam but the 2nd wouldn't see it. chris -- Chris Willing Phone: +61 7 3365 8350 University of Queensland Email: [email protected] St Lucia, QLD 4072, Australia
