Bad Backgrounds

Hi,

I'm experimenting with virtual backgrounds, and it seems that no matter which background I select (Including blurring), I get ugly artifacts around my head any time I move it. I've used YouCam a little bit on another computer and didn't see this issue.

I am running Windows 11 now. Could that be what's causing this?

Thanks for your help!

More likely it is your GPU that is causing the difference between the two computers. Do you know the spec differences between the two computers? Check that the GPU driver is up to date.

I guess it is possible the GPU driver on the Windows 11 machine is not optimized and causing said issue.

With Windows 11, I occasionally get a similar problem. It seems to be a GPU problem. This problem also exists for me on Wilbursoot. If someone discovers this solution, kindly let us know.

This can be caused by lighting, clothing, and resolution settings. The problem is that YouCam can't correctly detect the edges of the foreground under some conditions.

It can also happen if you're using a green screen. If you look closely at a weather forecaster standing in front of the virtual maps, you can see the same effect sometimes.

See if changing your environment helps. Jerry Schwartz
