Windows 10: Creative Live Cam 1080p

Hi,

I have question about installing Creative Live Cam 1080p. After installation process with offical cam drivers it appears as Vimicro USB Camera 358boot. And of course it doesn't work as it should, e. g. using Microsoft Teams or Google Meet.


I've proceed Windows Updates, uninstalled the camera, installed it once again...and nothing has changed. Any suggestions?


Best regards,

My Creative Live! Cam Sync 1080p camera display in MS Teams is jerky, not smooth.

Hi,

My Creative Live! Cam Sync 1080p camera display in MS Teams is jerky, not smooth.

On the same computer, in SKYPE or ZOOM everything is OK.

I tried to reinstall MS Teams but it didn't help. My Creative Live! Cam Sync 1080p camera works in MS Teams with delays like it was an IP camera.

Computer configuration is: i7-9700K; 16 GB RAM; GIGABYTE RTX 2060 SUPER graphic card.

The same camera works fine on another much slower computer in SKYPE, ZOOM
and in MS TEAMS too. Both computers works in the same local net.

Regards, Staś Piwowarski
