Live streaming doesnt start? I cant get the cam to start, how do i know thats its actually working?

Your VPN is probably stopping it from running by giving out false country codes or data.

Nice Cam. USB 3.0 works best for this cam as it has a really high data rate. USB 2.0 will work, 1.0, will be poor. Start by downloading the software under product support.: Then it wall take you through it step by step.

Please let me know your feedback and rating for this free question.

Please reinstall the display driver once again. To do so. Go to Start Menu> All Programs> Acer eRecovery management> Restore> Reinstall Application & Drivers> Select the appropriate display driver (Like Intel or ATI) and install it. It should take care of the issue

in this case the problem is with the msn...try to reinstall the windows live messenger ...there are available new updates on windows site ...just google for windows live messenger ..and it will gave you solutions for download
so ..reinstall cause it it was the camera..it should just not work ...but you should be able to see other people web cams..

vista doesn't come with 16 bit, it is 32 or 64 bit. use media center utility for watch live streaming. media player 11 is also capable for playing the live video. realplayer is the best tool for playing live videos

I have this camcorder. According to Sony, the DCR-DVD810 does not support USB streaming. I do believe, however, that you can use the AV port (under the lens) to stream live video.

install your drivers brunella then do a windows update ignor when pop comes up says cant do it with the continue button hit continue on the driver install and do windows update

windows vista doesnt like the older equipment for some reason it doesnt work well with some new hardware just to let you know vista is still in its infancy stage getting better as its source and updates go along

reinstall the camera drivers or refix the camera

Shut down your computer and than re-start again if your cam isnt working .

Go to start- control panel- look for add and remove programs and delete your web cam and than

Re-stall all the cd's that came with your cam.

Dont for get to re-boot after (re-stalling) your cam
