Logitech webcam not working with quicktime

I have an M1 with latest OS installed. I have a Logitech that works with FaceTime when I select it but there’s no option to select it for QuickTime?

also security privacy has no option to allow the device as it doesn’t even appear under cameras.

I cannot use the built in camera because I’m doing angled recording so I need the camera away from the computer.

help please?

does not show in photo booth and does not show in QuickTime but shows in FaceTime.

MacBook Pro (2020 and later)

Hi there AussieDee,

Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We're happy to help with this trouble you're having with the external camera on the MacBook Pro. With the camera connected, open QuickTime and click File in the upper toolbar. From there go to New Movie Recording, then click Options. The external camera should show in the pop-up menu. Get more info on this here:

Let us know the outcome, and we can go from there if needed.

Have a great day!
