not seeing video of myself

I am not seeing myself on zoom meetings. I have searched all the help I could find online and nothing has helped. It used to work fine and just recently it went black. My camera works fine in other applications.  I have updated drivers, reinstalled zoom, experimented with all the settings. I have tried different cameras and get the same result, so it must be with the zoom application.  Not sure what to try next.

    Thanks for the replies. I did those things and it did not help. Even in Settings/video I just see black.

    It did. I'm afraid I don't know what I did, but it solved itself somehow
