Windows 8.1 YAWCam Crashes When Loading Camera

Post by ShibSta »

I have a Logitech C910 camera. When I disable the device in the device manager, YAWCam loads the GUI fine. However, when I enable it, YAWCam crashes during the splash screen while 'loading devices...'

Code: Select all

Running init for cam: 0 pin: 0 format: 0
CamManager.initCam()
dsj.dll version: 0_8_7

# The crash happened outside the Java Virtual Machine in native code.
# See problematic frame for where to report the bug.

Also, just our of curiosity, since this program is free and doesn't seem like development is very active, would you consider making it open-source on GitHub or something? That way, others would be able to continue your work and perhaps make it a bit more stable...

Thanks

Looks like you are getting an access violation. Try running Yawcam as an administrator, that fixed that problem for me before.

I've already tried that, that was the first thing I tried, right after closing Skype and everything else that may have been using the camera.

Try uninstalling the drivers (if any), reinstall latest drivers (from logitech's website), restart your computer then run Yawcam as and administrator.
