Hello!

 

You mentioned that the Zoom Q2N webcam worked on your laptop.  Is that a Windows or a Mac laptop?

 

You will want to check that your Zoom Q2N can be used by the built-in Windows "Camera" app.  If the Windows Camera app can't use the Zoom Q2N, then likely Character won't be able to use it either.

 

Also, it is possible the Q2N requires a high-speed USB connection.  Make sure you are using a USB 3.0 port on your PC if it is required by the camera.

 

Best Regards,
