Why can't I see the device in my video or audio sources?
This issue is likely caused by incorrect or missing drivers. To resolve this, please reinstall the drivers while ensuring your antivirus software is temporarily disabled. Also, make sure the VGB100 is plugged into a USB port during the installation process.

Why can't I find the device or is it being used by another application?
This issue is related to your PC's camera settings. To fix it, go to Windows Settings > Privacy > Camera, and make sure camera access is enabled for your device. Allow apps to access the camera, which should resolve the issue.
Why is there a black screen when playing a tape?
