Hey, i've downloaded Character Animator to animate my Character using voice and Face Detection. But, unfortunately, CA v3.1 (build 49) says i need to give permissions to use the Camera in my Settings. I'm Running the Studio on the following OS

 

That's what Character Animator is telling me

 

 

This are my Settings. There's no option to add access. 

 

Character Animator doesn't even ask for permissions to access Camera...

 

I Hope someone can help me fixing it. 

Thanks.

I got it working by just uninstalling the Character Animate and then re-install it again. Just make sure to approve access to camera and mic.

Same issue, but I don't even get an error message.  I've been through the steps, and have a longer list of accessible apps, but there is no way to add an app and there is no "video hardware" option in Ch preferences that I would expect.  Camera works with literally any other application.

Hi,

 

Running the same specs and no issues.


I'm sure you've been through this checklist.

  1. Your camera and mic are blue in the Camera and Mic Panel. (Top right)
  2. You have the camera selected from the hamburger menu of the same panel.

 

Good luck
