#My logitech webcam c170 is not working software#
I have tried the C170 software but it didn't seem to help at all. I have tried all 4 basic USB ports as well as the 2.0/3.0 USB port (forgot which one it is. Knowing my luck, I would have messed up too much and probably fried some stuff. I don't want to accidentally mess something up with that stuff. There's also a dedicated software for C170 that you can try, to see if you get yours working again, Oh, my C170 has been in use since 2010 and it still works just fine. So there's no way it could be affecting my webcam's built-in micĪlso, did you make any software changes before the mic stopped working? Including Win updates? NOTE: When typing all of this, there's no headset hooked up to the computer. HEADSET: Afterglow Prismatic (universal headset) SPEAKERS: Logitech S120 (also have old Acer brand speakers as backup) WEBCAM: Logitech C170 with built-in microphone Not sure why Mic/Aux2 spiked a 2nd timeĬOMPUTER TYPE/BRAND: Acer Aspire X (the type that's apparently never meant to have the hardware upgraded/replaced) NOTE: the sudden spike in Mic/Aux and Mic/Aux2 is from me making a single clap in front of the webcam/microphone. Here's proof of what the audio signal bars are doing. I actually have to YELL at the dang thing just to have any audio signal. I tried to test with clapping and coughing and it only seems to find my voices/sounds when i'm literally right next to the webcam/microphone. which is odd since I'm not even talking and there's no other sounds at the moment. The audio signal bars are all flat (meaning no sounds found at all) except the 2 microphone bars. I even tried to max the computer's audio volume to 100% and it's still not working.Īs I'm typing all of this, I have my OBS open right now. I've even tried testing on my computer's audio settings and my computer's audio settings also shows there's literally no sound. But it still doesn't seem to work correctly.

I made sure that the audio device was chosen correctly and it was enabled on OBS and my computer (which is an Acer Aspire X with Windows 10). And today I tried to record a small video but my OBS shows there's literally no audio spikes from my voice. I have been using it for my live streams on Twitch ever since. I bought a C170 Logitech webcam with a built-in microphone less than 2 years ago (warranty says it's good for 2 years).
