Camera Is Already in Use: What to Do

The camera says it is in use by another app: find that app, close it and bring your camera back into the stream.

The short answer

Close the other app that is using the camera, such as a video call or another streaming program, then press refresh in the scene and choose the camera again.

How to do it in Streamdzy

  1. Find the problem in the list, and try the first step only.
  2. Check it again with a short test, before you go live or record.
  3. If it still happens, run the Health check and the upload speed test, and note what they show.
  4. Update Streamdzy from Settings, Updates, if the problem is one we have fixed in a newer version.

What to know first

Some problems come from the PC, the network or the platform rather than the app. Streamdzy’s checks show which one it is; a connection that is down cannot be fixed by the app.

Questions

How do I find the app using it?

Close the apps that might use cameras, such as video calls, one at a time, and check the camera again.

Want all of this in one app?

Streamdzy is a free streaming and recording app for Windows: several cameras, your phone as a camera, going live to many places at once, and recording first so a bad connection never costs you the show.
