I can't use my webcam for livestreams Youtube,StreamYard..etc

Hello

I am facing a problem when trying to use the webcam for Live stream in platforms such as Youtube or StreamYard (knowing that it works in other browsers), the error shown is:

Can’t find camera. Make sure that it’s connected and try again.

Hi @yasserberrehail,
Can you try going into the site settings and allowing camera access.
e.g. here’s me doing it with community:
In the top left (next to the address bar) click on the lock icon > then go to site settings


Within site settings you can manage the permissions:

So, if you do this for youtube, does it say allow, block or ask?

I’ve already did that, nothing seems to work! (I didn’t get any promoted popup for authorisation)

Can you try creating a new profile and seeing if the issue persists?
Click on the menu icon in the top right corner > create a new profile.

Same problem…

Couldn’t find a camera. Is it possible you don’t have one plugged in?

@yasserberrehail, Can you try going to brave://settings/content/camera?search=permission, Can you see if your camera is selected/displayed? Also check the block/allow site lists.

StreamYard.com is allowed but I can’t see my camera model there.

The same problem always. (works perfectly in firefox)

I guess it’s a problem related to windows 10 camera privacy with brave?

Can you go into your settings > privacy > camera. And then see the list of apps that can use camera. Is Brave there/disabled?

I can’t find brave there nor Firefox or opera ! (Firefox still works perfectly), i am using windows 10.

How to add a software like brave to the list ?

Can you test the camera with a different site.
e.g. meet.jit.si, can be an easy test. Go to the site, create a chat room, allow the site camera permissions, does that work?
Also, the webcam you’re using, to confirm, is it an external camera?

Here is the result :


and the camera is integrated with Asus laptop : Alcor Micro corp, Asus integrated Webcam

Can you try reinstalling Brave, DO NOT UNINSTALL. I’d like you to try and rerun the installer.

Same problem, I believe that it’s a problem related to brave & windows 10 camera privacy !
