I have an embedded web cam in my laptop (Bisoncam)
Skype sees it
Webcammax sees it
Sony Vegas Video sees it
the window os reports it as a webcam, all tests succesful
Touch doesn’t list as an input for Video In.
How can I fix this?

Can you try out the latest experimental build. I did some fixes to allow our webcam detection to be better.
Remember to uninstall the build when you want to go back to 14xx.
mmmm…that seemed to work (except that the first time around a webcam that wasn’t connected came up as available and Touch crashed
One thing though - which makes me think it may have worked before as well…
I had to turn on the viewer to get a menu of cameras, or rightclick and force cook
I don’t think I had tried that before (silly of me).
Since this is on my portable, I’ll probably stick with the latest version because I’m preparing our next gen of tools. Anything you know I should watch out for or test for you guys in this latest build?

Ah good find. I never tried this node with viewers off by default. It’ll now query the connected cameras when the node is created, not when the node cooks for the first time.
On that note, it would be great if there was a button to “refresh” the list.
That’s true for Audio I/O, joystick, etc.
It’s annoying to have to exit Touch (and sometimes wait 10 minutes to reload if it’s a big show) if you plug in a new camera or joystick or add an audio device.
