Web Camera freezes on photo booth after Big Sur update.

I like recording vlogs on photo booths, but recently it's been difficult as my web cam turns on and off every 30 seconds or so. The camera only turns off for a second, but it's really frustrating as when watching the video, it's full of hiccups and delays.

The audio in the video is fine.

Any solution to this problem.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.6

Is this the built in camera of your macbook?


Try restarting your mac in safe mode, then trying, then restart normally and try again.


If it is an external camera - the safe mode trick might help - but you may also need to check with your camera manufacturer that it is still compatible with Big Sur.
