Mine hasn't work in over a year.  Tried everything and nothing works.  The webcam works fine outside of Mach but there is some type of conflict that prevents it from working.

I found the same problem and I don't know why some work and some will not. Never seen anything posted for an answer on it.

Try a different USB port if you can, I seem to remember someone saying they couldnt get it to work and then tried a USB2 port and it was fine.

I also wish my video window worked !
I even tried a separate USB2 PCI card and still no-go.
The camera works OK in windows but for some reason does not display in the Mach3 window.

You can "chop it off" but can't "chop it on"

Have you tried Klaus's video plugin?

Might be worth a try.

I had the same problem.  The way I got it to work was to uninstall the drivers that came with the camera, and then it would work in Mach, but then it will not work outside of Mach.

Hi,

are you using the Mach3 supplied plugin, or my PluginCamera? Did neither of them work?

Klaus,
all I've tried is the one that came with the mach3 program download. Is there another? The camera works on it's own.
