Camera is not being found

Thomas: Me neither . And furthermore, if you look in the last few photos i uploaded , there are all sort of Camera registries, even ones referring to logitech which has NEVER been one this pc ever. 0000 to 0003 are all microsoft VX that i only just bougtht and installed. 00004 is HM printer. 5,7 and 8 are mirrosoft and are all clones of the others while 7 is the Logitech. But deleting files with USB or camera in their string does not mean i am removing the bad file /s . It could be one of the others. And what about the Kernal streaming Reg file "ksthunk"
Personally, i do not feel this in a registry file directly linked to the camera in that way. I believe it is one of the others used in the process.
After deleting those last night, my PC went ape shi** and i could not get procaster to pick up audio from the mixer software at alll, to the point it was freezing up and crashing and i have NEVER during 5 or more years had this happen with any PC. One of the drivers which is an AISO driver i selected was playing the music all crunched and grainy and messed up andi have re imported the registry back. I am not messing about in there now unless someone knows an exact file /s i should delete and importantly, what i should NOT delete and the exact location.
I would run my Windows dvd and select repair but i don't think that will fix the registry (If the fault is there) because it leave programs intact and it would hardly wipe the whole OS as nothing installed would work any more.
The registry is a mess. There are folders for Many Cam Pro which i no longer have on the PC. And the LVUSB64 is also located in services with it's own folder as well as ksthunk, too so deleting it from control01 is a waste of time. I am sure there are other reg files in other places that are linked to the issue. It could go on forever.

Yeah the problem is in the registry, and tracing it down is always the hard part.
Always good to do a backup before hand lol In fact grab my registry backup program and make a current backup so you have it.
A repair Windows install may not fix it as it normally carries over driver info and regkeys for them. Only a fresh install would fix you up, but then you have all the programs and such to reinstall. SO a fresh install is the absolute last resort.
I wouldnt mind using teamviewer and working with you and letting me see if I can trace it down. To be honest I would like to find a fix because I think it would be great to have in the windows repair like I do the cd/dvd drive repair.

Hi Shane. Thank you for the further reply :)
Yes, i can understand Windows the repair issue. It will not fix any damaged software , too and i think my latest problem with the audio not being picked up by Procaster shows the level of corruption in my system. The WASAPI Shared drivers are all i can usually use to get the DJ mixing software to communicate with Procaster and they are now causing Traktor Pro 2 (DJ Mixer) to lock up. WASAPI Driver is a shared AISO driver that is threaded as opposed to a single driver so it can be used for almost anything to link audio streams between various different apps, thus is would find it's way into the registry and become associated with Webcam Audio. Strangely, Procaster has my Webcam Audio listed and i can pick up sound from it by selecting it. So the Audio aspect is connecting and working.
Ok,, Team viewer it is. I have not long got home after a night at the theatre (I am sound engineer) and have a lot to do before bed. I am free during early evening tomorrow onwards. This is about 4pm UK time onwards. Let me know that or a later time to this is good for you and roughly when and we can set it up. I will have to re install TV 8 as i deleted almost everything associated with cameras as an attempted resolve :)
I foresee a long dark tunnel ahead :confused:
Hope we can do this :cheesy:
Thanks and have a great evening .
Shane:
We may have to play it by ear, I am in Oregon so our times are a little off lol.
