I upgraded to Messenger 14.0.8117 and my local webcam would no longer work – even though it worked in Tools/Audio Video Setup. I disabled/re-enabled and now everything is fine.
Many thanks

Hi everyone. I know its not exactly the same problem but I hope you can help me out. When i press the little webcam icon next to my own or the other ones picture, i automatically starts to “Start a Videocall” without the possibility to select just “Show My Webcam”. Anyone know how to fix this?

Sincerely
Emil
