This help article includes information on enabling your webcams in the chat room and troubleshooting any problems that you might have.
Once you have entered the chatroom, to activate your web cam mouse select on the webcam icon in the top left hand My Camera box.
Your computer will ask whether you want to 'Allow' or 'Deny' the request to turn your web cam on. Choose Allow to complete with the process.
Your webcam should now be turned on for other chatroom users to view.
If you're unable to see the My Camera box, this suggests that your system doesn't have Adobe Flash Player installed. If however you are certain that you do have this installed, you can visit the Adobe Flash Player Test website to run a diagnostics check. If you are still having problems, please try using another web browser such as Google Chrome as a comparison.
If you find when turning on your webcam it does not show you or you have a new web cam that is not working, you will need to configure the settings in the chat room to point it to your web cam.

If you are unable to connect to the video service, there may be a firewall on your system that is blocking the connection. Please try and diagnose your system by temporarily disabling your firewall, restarting your system, and then trying the webcams again to ascertain whether this is the problem.
