FAQ

Q1: How do I know if my camera is being recognized by the system?
A: Connect the camera to any USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 port. It will take a few seconds for the camera to be recognized after it is connected to the system. To ensure the camera has been installed correctly on a Windows computer: check under Control Panel > System and Security > Device Manager.

To verify the webcam is connected on a Mac computer, click the Apple Menu (in the top left corner of your screen) and then click About this Mac. Click on System Report from the pop-up window that appears. The System Information window for your Mac will appear. Navigate to the USB section and check if the webcam is listed as a connected device (like the photo below):

Q2: What is the video recording frame-rate?
A: The NexiGo webcam captures clear images and can record video at 1440p/30fps or 1080p/60fps in a well-lit environment. The quality of the signal can be affected by low bandwidth availability or insufficient lighting. This can cause the frame rate to drop to 1440p/20fps or 1080p/50fps, or possibly even lower.
Note: This webcam can only record at 60fps when at 1080p resolution.

Q3: What can I do if the images or video are an abnormal color? How to adjust image parameters such as brightness or contrast?
A: Please ensure that the light in your environment is free of unique tones or intense light sources. Things such as walls/floors/other large-area non-standard light sources, including areas with colored or intense light. In such environments photographed pictures are subjected to color cast due to the lighting impact of these light sources.
For Windows & Mac:
Using the NexiGo Webcam Settings Software, you can adjust the image parameter you want according to your needs.
Note: Download the NexiGo Webcam Settings Software from nexigo.com/software.

Q4: Why is my video not in 1440p in my video calling application?
A: Check the video output settings in your video capture software, these may be set to a lower capture format. There are various constraints on the system that could impede the ability to attain a 1440p video calling session. They center around processing power (i.e. CPU speed) and available network bandwidth. In all cases, review the requirements from the video calling application. They will guide as to the system performance required as well as the necessary bandwidth.

Q5: How to use the webcam privacy shutter?

A:

1. Remove 3M tape backing on the back of the privacy cover.
2. Attach the cover to the webcam lens and press firmly.
3. Open/close the cover as needed.

Q6: Why does my screen go blank or black while trying to preview images?
A: There are several reasons this could happen:

1. There is something wrong with the USB port. Please use a different USB port or another PC and test the camera again.
2. The PC does not recognize the camera device.
3. The operating system and computer configuration do not satisfy the requirements of the camera. Please check your system specifications.
4. The video preview feature of the application is not turned on, or the application has a privacy feature that prohibits access to the camera. Please try with a different application.

Q7: Why does my resolution drop to 1080p when running at 60fps, or while using the zoom function on the webcam?
A: This webcam is not able to maintain any combination of 2K resolution, 60fps, and/or the built in zoom function. For 2K resolution the frame rate will be set at 30fps and no built-in zoom functions will be able to be used. 60fps is only possible with 1080p resolution and no built-in zoom. The built in zoom is only usable at 1080p resolution and 30fps. Alternatively, you can use a program like OBS to create a virtual camera running at 60fps or at 2K resolution, and use the ability to manipulate the image in their program to zoom the image in. For assistance with OBS, please contact the software manufacturer.

Q8: How do I use the preset function?
A: Preset Settings:

1. Adjust the camera view to fit your needs. You can zoom in/out using the zoom buttons or pan and tilt the camera using the arrow buttons.

Remove Preset Settings:

1. Press and hold the Preset button for 2 seconds. This will cause the camera to enter Remove Preset Setting Mode, and the camera video playback will darken/become more opaque.
2. Press either the 1 or 2 button to clear the settings saved in the corresponding button.

Q9: Why is there flickering or banding on the video feed when I use the webcam?
A: This might be due to lighting inconsistencies in your room. To resolve this, download the NexiGo Webcam Setting Software from nexigo.com/software. In the
software, select your NexiGo webcam in the device selection bar, then change the powerline frequency to either 50Hz or 60Hz depending on your needs. For example, if your screen flicks at 50Hz, you can switch to 60Hz to solve it.
