Camera displaying black screen

Hello,

My Macbook Pro camera displays a black screen. I don't know why. When I launch Photo Booth and FaceTime, I don't see me but I see a black image. When using Google Meet, it is the same issue. I checked that the camera permission is enabled. I ran a diagnostic on my Mac and found no issue.

MacBook Pro (2018) Camera stopped working Whenever I start a app that uses the video camera (e.g. QuickTime, FaceTime, Photo Booth) the app shows a black screen where the video should appear. On startup of the app, the light indicator of the camera turns on for a few seconds (although no video seems to be captured). I already tried everything outlined here: If the built-in camera isn’t working on your Mac - Apple Support Any advice on how to fix this? Thanks and Best

Camera stopped working Hi, I have a Macbook Pro 2017 and suddenly my camera stopped working. When connecting to Google Meet or Facetime, the green diod on the display goes on and after like 5-10 seconds it goes off. In Google Meet the camera settings keeps the message "Camera starting" for the whole call. I tried everything I found for this topic on internet. Computer restart, macOS upgrade to the most recent version, SMC reset, checked if the camera is okay in system profile in settings (it is), diagnostics after restarting my computer (no issues found). Is there anything more I can do? What could cause this if the diagnostics and everything other seems normal? Thank you.
