Topic: Camera input

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

I use manycam as a camera input, previously on a mac I had no issues. I recently switched to a pc laptop and the manycam feed no longer shows in VDJ. I get the error message shown below. I have no issues seeing the feed within the manycam app, only within VDJ. Please advise. Thanks

Manycam seems to work fine here.
Are you sure you have the correct camera selected?

Yes, Manycam is the camera input and I am able to see the feed within the manycam app. Does that error appear to be a VDJ error code?

The error code -2147024891 indicates 'access denied'.
You did try the 'Camera' dial in the vdj camera options on all the available inputs?

Yeah, the build in webcam and the manycam were the only 2 options.

Now that I think about it, the anti-virus blocked the Webcam from activating. I'll try overriding that, hopfully that will allow the manycam access to the video output. I'll test and circle back. Thanks Adion!

You're running this app at the same time as VDJ? Maybe that's why VDJ can't see the camera feed - it's being used by the app.

It has to be running. That's what the phone connects to. I had it working fine on my mac. Will have to test with the anti-virus.

Confirmed. The anti-virus was blocking it. I was able to disable the Webcam protection and manycam worked. Thanks all
