How can I change the default webcam in Safari to my Logitech?

I was able to change the default for Chrome, FaceTime and QuickTime, but Safari doesn't seem to have a place where I can select the Logitech over the builtin FaceTime Cam. I've gone into Quicktime, and selected the Logitech and it keeps it as the default, and have done the same for FaceTime....no luck with Safari though. Chrome can use it as well.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, (All software is up to date and reflect the latest versions of all)

Peace & health!

Hi JohnPT,

Thanks for posting! As we understand it, you want to know if you can select an external camera as a default for use in Safari.

We did some testing in Safari preferences and System Preferences, and whiles some websites might allow you to select a different camera within the web interface, there does not appear to be a way to configure an external camera as a default in Safari. For reference, this shows how you can Change Websites preferences in Safari on Mac.

You can always send your suggestion directly to Apple with this link: Product Feedback

Take care.
