I would suggest trying another brand to see if you get better or different results. (while Chrome is the 'go to' for most, I have found that it doesn't always perform the same across all devices) Ice

Chrome is the only browser you can use on mobile for vMix Call correct? Is this working properly for everyone else using a mobile phone as the camera? Can you choose front or back properly? thx ps and just to clarify 'front' is the one facing the person holding the phone.

You can access the back camera of your phone thru Chrome browser? I have tried everything I can think of to fix it with no joy. This was working 2 -3 weeks ago. Thanks for any help or tips this is kind of a day wrecker for our productions. Jim

Just tested on an S7 and the back camera selected is working. Does the camera show up correctly in the built in apps? Regards, Martin vMix

My feeling is it's phone related and not so much vMix Call. :shrug:
