Normally I've just been fooling around with Youcam 7 Deluxe. I've been using it on my external monitor connected to my laptop. The other day, the first time I actually was really counting on using it, I was using the laptops display. I got this message "Youcam does not support this resolution". And that was it. No amount of uninstall or reinstall could get around it. On the web I saw one who said maybe it had something to do with the laptops display resolution but no amount of changing it got around error message. Not clear in the error message if the resolution they refer to is for laptop display or camera resolution or capture resolution? I finally had to give up using it at all.Thanks for assistance with this.

Hi Francois,
What's your laptop screen resolution and dpi setting?

It was
1280x800
then I tried
1024x768
800x600
none worked. On your question of what dpi I couldn't see where it said dpi for the monitor. I did adjust % down to 100 when it was 175% and for the 1st time youcam would open without that error message. So thanks for pointing in this direction. Very, very vague error message.
