Hi chinonsobeau,
First off, you to list the model number of your HP web Cam, as well as your OS, and the software you using to record your sound. I will assume that you have Quickplay which HP ususally send out with their web cams.
To access QuickPlay, just press the "blue QuickPlay button" next to the power button. If it doesn't load QuickPlay, just do "Start" - "All Programs" - then you will see QuickPlay listed there. If you still can't find it just do a search, you will find the short-cut. If you still don't find it, then
HERE is a place you can download it and use it. It also has instruction on how to use it.
Or sometimes HP sends out Cheese, another camera software. You can download that
HERE. These are the instructions for QuickPlay:
Once launched QuickPlay, click on the 2nd icon from left (between DVD and TV icon), then double-click on "HP Pavilion WebCam" from the left side panel, then you will see the blue LED light lit and you should see yourself on the screen. (Double-click "yourself" to enlarge image)
To take a picture or record video, just press the corresponding buttons on the top. (the red circle icon is for recording video (press "Stop" icon to stop recording), the camera icon is for, well, camera)
Videos and pictures are saved at:
Pictures -- C:\Users\Public\Pictures\My Snapshots
Videos -- C:\Users\Public\Videos\HP Webcam
I'm less familiar with Cheese, so I'll give you their website
HERE to go to their support and they can guide you through their program.
Anyway, I hope this helps,
Don't forget to leave a raing,
Thanks
Mark

Having the same problem as stated above, all lights on the quickplay panel are lit but does not function.
quickplay not working at all. lights on, nobody home. dv9610us, won't play my cds or dvds as of yesterday
I'm havin the same exact problem and I can't figure out how to fix it.Please help.
I had the same problem where my mute button went orange/red and the quickplay buttons stopped working. I had noticed other issues with mine as well, a little slowness, some intermittent errors and decided to replace my RAM just to have more memory and did not replace it with the intention of fixing the Quickplay button issue. Much to my surprise though as soon as I installed the new RAM my Quickplay buttons started working again, along with all my errors going away. I'm wondering if I had a memory leak in the RAM or a virus possibly, not sure, but the problem was solved with new RAM.
how can i get the quick play buttons to work again?
