Hello,
Has anyone been able to get video to display in Jitsi with the HP
17-G188CA laptop?
Computer: HP 17-G188CA
OS: Linux / Ubuntu 14.04 using Mate 1.8.2
Java: OpenJRE 7 and Oracle Java 1.8.0_6 (both unsuccessful)
Jitsi 2.5, 2.6 and 2.9.5487 - all fail
In Jitsi Tools | Options | Video | Devices, I see the built-in camera
and a Logitech USB webcam. Enabling video turns on the 'record' light
for both cameras, yet no image.
I had the same hard disk in an Acer laptop and everything was working
perfectly. Hence, likely a hardware issue.
Skype, VLC and Cheese work perfectly on the HP laptop with both cameras.
