Macbook Pro 2018 Camera not working in Bootcamp for Native Win 10 Apps

No afraid not, Windows is fully up do date.

Ive even tried a forced driver update but it refuses to recognize the apple drivers as valid Win 64 drivers (for my machine atleast).

Ive noticed that someone else raised a similar question in April:

Bootcamp FaceTime HD Camera not working

They didn't follow up on it which is a pity.

Could it be a MBP 2018 specific Bootcamp issue? And do you know of any drivers I could use?

Thanks

How do I verify the version in Windows?

Using the Bootcamp tray icon > About displays as Bootcamp 6.1

Bootcamp.xml shows version 6.1.7071. (This one being in the folder downloaded via BCA. Assume thats what you meant)

So in bootcamp.xml, Camera driver details are as follows:

<Name>FaceTime HD Camera

<InfName>AppleCamera64.inf</InfName>

<Class>Image</Class>

<ClassGUID>{6bdd1fc6-810f-11d0-bec7-08002be2092f}</ClassGUID>

<CatalogFile>AppleCamera64.cat</CatalogFile>

<Provider>"Apple Inc."</Provider>

<DriverVer>09/30/2016,6.1.6500.0</DriverVer>

<ServiceBinary>AppleCamera.sys</ServiceBinary>

<HardwareID></HardwareID>

<isX64>yes</isX64>

</Name>

However this isnt the driver I see in Device Manager under that device and I cant upgrade manually to it either.

Dont believe they match:

Yes it does - It shows as iBridge FaceTime HD Camera (Built In).

Note that the problem also occurs in Chrome, Hangouts, OneNote and Firefox.

I will try to contact MS and see what they say.

Thanks for looking into it. Much appreciated.

Ok so Microsoft werent much help, confusing bootcamp with a VM and ultimately saying that Office 365 isnt supported in bootcamp. Im challenging the response so we'll wait and see.

I managed to figure out an interim solution though. Installing ManyCam app installs a Virtual WebCam Driver.

Pointing OneNote, S4B and Chrome to the virtual driver allows webcam streaming to work. Granted you need to have ManyCam running in the background and it takes up some CPU cycles but atleast the web cam is usable in various applications.

Tried it and it works fine in S4B mac side.
