    USB Webcam on Xbox One for Sype


    Is there a way I can use my webcam through USB to use it for Skype. I used my USB wireless keyboard and it worked like charm. So wondering if I can connect my USB webcam as well so that I need not pay for Kinect just for my Video Skyping. Any thoughts? Or
    is there any there cheap alternative for this?

    :)

    Webcam won't turn on for Skype

    I'm trying to skype call my girlfriend with a webcam and she cannot see me.

    I have a child account, but my permissions for skype are checked.

    The webcam is USB and I have tried all USB ports.

    I have used the 'test video' option and the webcam worked.

    She is on PC and I am on Xbox... obviously.

  3. Voice support for usb 3rd party webcam

    Please allow microphone support on the 3rd party usb webcams to function while connected to the xbox one / XB1x. I would like to be able to continue to use the voice chat / voice commands via 3rd party webcam mics while connected to xb1 & xb1x.

    You can certainly try the webcam if you like and post back if it works but I don't think it will. The Xbox One console was specifically made so the Kinect sensor will function great with it. It may be that you will need to purchase a sensor.

    I'm not sure which country you live in but sites like kijiji or craigslist may have sensors available from some people who don't want them for a cheap price.

  5. What about the developer settings. Can someone go in and manually install the specific driver for a webcam to work?.

    please do not bump old threads but no the only way to do the video thing on a One is with the Kinnect sensor there is no way to install drivers onto a game console unless they are from MS themselves (IE firmware updates or game/system updates).

    Can I use a webcam that isn’t the right format?

    Hello Aiden, My name is Khaji I am the independent advisor and I will be happy to help you today.

    If your webcam is in ASF (Advanced Systems Format) format and not directly compatible with Xbox, it may be challenging to use it directly without additional hardware or software. Xbox consoles typically support USB webcams that conform to specific formats and standards.

    However, there are some potential workarounds you can try:

    1. Check if your webcam is compatible with Xbox consoles. Xbox consoles generally support USB webcams that adhere to standard video formats such as MJPEG or YUY2. Review the webcam's specifications or contact the manufacturer to confirm its compatibility with Xbox consoles.

    2. If your webcam is not directly compatible with Xbox, you may consider using a USB video capture device. These devices allow you to connect various video sources, including webcams, to your Xbox console. The video capture device converts the video signal into a format that is compatible with Xbox. Ensure that the USB video capture device you choose is compatible with Xbox consoles.

    3. Another option is to stream your gameplay using a PC instead of directly from the Xbox console. In this setup, you can connect your webcam to your PC and use streaming software that supports the ASF format. You would capture the gameplay video from your Xbox console on your PC and combine it with the webcam video using streaming software. This method requires a capture card or a network streaming solution to capture and transmit the Xbox console's video to your PC.

    Thank you very much for your patience and understanding! If you need anything else, do not hesitate to contact us again.
