Hi,
I’m trying to use a USB Logitech webcam on my raspberry pi 4 running a magic mirror. I tested the webcam via a webcam test website in my raspberry pi and it works; however, it doesn’t in the magic mirror nothing displays. This is what I tried so far:
Added camera module to config.js
Changed in camera.js -> display: true
updated my raspberry pi
updated magic mirror
node version in raspberry pi is 14.15.0
Any help or advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

@Mykle1 Hi Mykle1, I haven’t however the stream should start as soon as the magicmirror comes up without me saying anything to the voice control. I changed the following to true in camera.js:
display: true
I have the same setup on windows pc and it works; however, when doing the same with the same webcam on the raspberry I get no stream.

I am having the exact same issue. I have also made the same changes that you have.
Were you able to get it fixed? -
I have the same problem with my usb cam.
So, i installed Motion and then I used the iShow module to show the stream of the cam.
but that’s was not easy. -
@Axel51 I wasn’t able to find any iShow module…Can you send a link>
