Since last week AVG is blocking ManyCam product from accessing webcams. Avast confirmed that they had the same issue and already solved it. Somehow AVG support rejected any help and denied the existense aof this issue. Disabling AVG doesn't help but uninstalling the product actually solves the issue. Any comment from anyone?
Hello Gleb, We are sorry for the inconvenience caused. Please try adding the .exe flie of the programs into exception by following the instructions from the article: https://t.co/wtdI1EvS3H and check if that works. If you are still experiencing the same, we request you to attach a screenshot of the window for better analysis and to resolve your concern. Please click on the following link http://support.avg.com/SupportArticleView?urlname=How-to-create-a-screenshot to send the screen shot. Thank you.
ManyCam, If applicable.. For your info, just in case that you are unaware, you can post the screenshot here in your topic. Click on 'Answer' & then click on the 'Image' [mountain symbol] & follow the instructions. AVG Guru
I tried adding EXE files and paths to the programs to exceptions for all components (as in the guide on AVG Help Pages) and it didn't help. I see that AVG and Avast are very similar products and somehow Avast confirmed and fixed the issue but AVG didn't.
Screenshot of ManyCam attached, as you can see it simply doesn't receive any picture from webcam. The same problem can be reproduced in latest OBS version (see their forums) and GraphStudioNext, small tool that we sometimes use for testing. No picture can be captured from webcam if AVG is working on the system. As soon as I remove AVG, problem disappears.

I am experiencing a similar issue and would like to know when this will get fixed. What's strange is that Microsoft Camera app in Windows 10 can access the camera, but another non-Microsoft application that I am using can not.
To me it happens the same with other applications, when I have installed avg the desktop applications that use the camera do not give me image, and when I uninstall avg they work without problems

Have the same problem with my MIcrosoft Lifecam VX-2000, ever since the latest AVG upgrade on 5/4/2017 my webcam video is blocked from working. Really affected my planned activities for today. Only works if I uninstall AVG.

Same issue here for me .. AVG (free edition) updated last night, and wanted a reboot... so restarted computer, wheich then failed to boot past the bios screen icon no matter how many resets or removal of power cord (not sure if this was AVG related or not.. but suspiciously coincidental??) anyway .. powered it off fully and left it disconnected from power over night .. checked it over this morning .. all seemd good.. powered on and it went to window. great. only to discover when opening ispy that camera no longer showing video. I didn't put 2 n 2 together at the time to suspect AVG .. but after a few uninstals of the camea and removing isp.. and updating ispy to latest .. I find these threads when searching for an answer... I can see video in logitech cam application .. so the usbcam is working fine.
I have followed a few links and added exceptions ..but still in the ispy it says "video not supported" when it tries to add my camera.
