Why is my webcam resolution lower than advertised?

Web browsers negotiate resolution based on lighting, USB bandwidth, and browser permissions. Ensure you select the maximum resolution in the test dropdown.

How do I test multiple webcams at the same time?

Use the device selector dropdown to switch between built-in and external USB cameras. Each camera reports its own supported resolutions, frame rates, and sensor capabilities independently.

Why does my webcam appear dark or grainy?

Low-light environments force the webcam sensor to increase ISO gain, introducing noise. Try improving ambient lighting, enabling auto-exposure in your system settings, or using an external HD webcam with larger sensor pixels.
