Question / Help Webcam brightness settings not properly applied in OBS (Lifecam HD 3000)

[Erik_TheRed]

Hey,

I have a Lifecam HD 3000 and have turned off all the automatic adjustment options in the OBS settings. However, when I attempt to lower the brightness and hit "OK" in the device selection window it reverts back to the default brightness. Once I go back into the configuration window for the webcam within OBS, tweaking the brightness bar even by one unit makes the whole picture darken to the desired level again.

I tested the same thing in the Lifecam software and it properly applies the brightness settings there, so the issue appears to be unique to OBS.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Quick note--

I just realized that setting the brightness in the configuration menu and then closing out of the windows instead of hitting "OK" retains the proper brightness level. I guess that's a workaround but there still seems to be something weird going on in the settings.
