cagiva Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Hello autoit coders I've been looking for some descriptions about AVICAP32 but I haven't found anything interesting for me.. What I need to do is: - something like a button or just function to turn ON/OFF LED next to webcam. I can't find it in webcam constants in autoit script. I've been using Webcam UDF from this forum. Regards, cagiva. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProgAndy Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 ohh.. im sorry to hear that but anyway thanks the LED is used to signal the webcam is running, so it cannot be used by malware to spy on you unnoticed. If you could manually turn the LED off, it would be against its purpose, right? *GERMAN* [note: you are not allowed to remove author / modified info from my UDFs]My UDFs:[_SetImageBinaryToCtrl] [_TaskDialog] [AutoItObject] [Animated GIF (GDI+)] [ClipPut for Image] [FreeImage] [GDI32 UDFs] [GDIPlus Progressbar] [Hotkey-Selector] [Multiline Inputbox] [MySQL without ODBC] [RichEdit UDFs] [SpeechAPI Example] [WinHTTP]UDFs included in AutoIt: FTP_Ex (as FTPEx), _WinAPI_SetLayeredWindowAttributes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad2 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Peeping Tom for sure. First thing I thought when seeing the title. I was actually looking for more of a reaming from the community, however the post isn't that old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue_Drache Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 (edited) Apart from being creepy ... yah ... my webcam doesn't have that LED on it at all, so I keep the "privacy shade" on it pulled down all the time unless I'm using it. In fact ... I should probably just unplug it... haven't used the damn thing in years.You can't.Oh ... yes ... you can ... you just don't have the proper tools. Granted, **I** don't know how, but I'm sure the men in black do.

In fact ... I should probably just unplug it... haven't used the damn thing in years.Lucky for you... I don't have an LED. I also don't have a privacy shade, and you know what is a real kick in the b***s? It's built into my monitor. My Laptop's monitor, so I cannot de-tach it. It's alright though, I installed a program which changes the default webcam driver. A driver which requires a program to be running, sending an output to the driver, from the actual webcam. Otherwise, I would have a dirty great big hole in my monitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GEOSoft Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 i'd be more concerned that the op is trying to turn off the camera led on a remote system. of course anyone whos camera can be hacked into doesn't have the system locked down tightly enough and probably deserves being eyeballed by willie the wanker.

Raik Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 (edited) You can't. <snip>This cams work with a generic uvc-driver. In theory it is possible to disable the led.
