    Hi there!

    I'm having trouble with my webcam on my Sony Z series and I'm wondering if anyone has heard of this issue before. At any time my webcam is being used, the color in the video appears to be very distorted. See the picture I've attached below. Has anyone seen this before? Is it a hardware or software issue? It occurs on both video chips (Windows and Nvidia) and occurs in any video program (Google talk, Skype, etc). Any ideas on how to proceed?

    Note: The webcam on this computer has not always been like this. It happened maybe a few months ago.

    I apologize if this question has been answered before. I did a quick forum search and could not find any similar thread.
