Can't open device properties menu

Post by frogitts »

Every time I click on Settings > Device > Device Properties or Format Control, the entire "Device" menu gets grayed out and no window pops up anymore. I just updated to the most recent dsj.dll/dsj.jar and am running 0.3.0 on XP.

Can you please check if your webcam's driver is (still) correctly installed in your settings ?
Was it possible for you in the past, to change those settings with the same hardware chosen as input source ?

The driver is correctly installed (the camera works and everything, no problems other than this one). I believe it was possible in the past - it is possible using my wife's camera, but not using mine (Logitech Quickcam Fusion).

Yes, it's the same here. After update of latest dsj.dll/dsj.jar they are grayed out.

Same issue - any solution?

Post by robk1w1 »

I haven't used my cam for about 6 months, but now I want to, and I need to change a setting (invert image).

It was working just fine with no problem changing settings.

I had the scheduler enabled, and disabled it, but no change to the problem.

I note that if you say "detect webcam" they come back selectable (i.e. not grayed out) but when you try to change the settings, no window appears and they stay greyed out ofter that.

Any suggestions?
