Black preview screen in MSN with webcam sharing

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.messenger (More info?)

I am happy it isnt just me. My friend and I were talking for two days on
the new 7 and all was okay. Then all of a sudden today, the exact same thing
you described. He could see me but I couldnt see - his picture was black.
It's like the webcam can't load. No audio on his side either. It all
worked great on 6.2 though. It must be a bug. on the new version?
