Microsoft Photos doesn't play Video

Hello Sat,

App compatibility is a primary factor that we have to consider why you are experiencing this issue. To gain a better grasp of your concern, we need to gather the following information:

• Have you made any recent changes to your computer prior to the issue?
• Are you getting any error message?
• Have you tried playing the video with a different application?
• Does the issue happen to all of the videos you're trying to play?

Meanwhile, I suggest performing the troubleshooting steps in this
article and see if it makes any difference.

Hope this helps. If the issue remains unresolved, please get back to us and we would be happy to help.

 

Logitech C920 takes photos but won't record video

Yes it does, but the setting appears o.k.



But why does it say last access 3 days ago when I've been messing with it today?

This is the program folder. Where is the actual app to include in the permissions list?

I have added Skype to the list and now that works, but the camera app will still not record video, and Capture will not open

Thanks for all your help so far. I’m going to take a step back from this and start again.

I’ve had my present machine since March 2018.
The Windows version is 10.0.19041.488 and it’s had Bitdefender from Day 1.

The webcam has always worked happily as a plug-and-play device without me having to download anything, and as recently as April this year it was still doing so.

A few days ago I went to use it and discovered the problem I’ve been describing – that I can take stills but not record video. Except once! Then it failed again before I could discover what made it work.

Therefore I am going to suggest to myself that I should try a system restore if I can find a suitable point to go back to.

Well that's not going to work, as there are no restore points. On previous machines I've had restore points were set automatically if you made changes such as installing new software, but it appears this one is not set up that way.

So what next? I do have a backup on a memory stick that was supplied with the machine.
