My Lifecam hd-3000 is detected by Windows 8, it's in device manager in Imaging Devices. All drivers and software are up to date. It works perfectly with the official Camera App, but that's it. No other app / website seems to work with the webcam. I think there is an issue with the permissions or something like that.
The audio / microphone seems to work perfect with everything though, yet video is an issue, and often skype says the webcam is being used in another program so can't be used, even though no such service / program is using the webcam.
Both Skype desktop and metro do not work, nor does Google+ on Google Chrome. Strange that it works in the Camera App but no where else.
Please help as this has been going on for a long time now.
Thanks.
