Camera Studio needs permission to use your camera.

If you're seeing a message like "Camera Not Detected"

  • Click “Allow Camera” in the popup.
  • Make sure your browser has camera permissions enabled.

This usually happens if you denied camera access earlier.

To fix it:

  • Click the icon next to the address bar
  • Find Camera and toggle access on.
  • Refresh the page to apply changes.

This means another app (like Zoom or Meet) is using the camera.

Depending on the situation:

  • Close other apps using the camera and refresh Camera Studio.
  • If you have multiple cameras, use the dropdown to switch to a different one.
  • If you're trying to change resolution or ratio, but can't, it's likely locked because another app is using the camera. Close that app and refresh.
