Webcam glitching

Hi all,

 

I'm an English tutor and have just returned back to teaching online after the Christmas break. My webcam - which is internal - works fine for the first 5 minutes and then begins glitching like a VHS tape... and then returns back to normal... and then begins glitching again. I have tried uninstalling Zoom and updating all drivers. Any ideas? I do pay for Zoom too.

I have the same issue. It seems like with my setup it has to do with the latest zoom upgrade. The webcam works flawless with another computer running Zoom 5.11.6, but I have the same video effects like you describe with the latest Zoom 5.12.9.

Maybe downgrade your zoom software as a temporary solution?
