You can run the Logitech c920 at 60fps if you do the following. (OUTDATED)

***When originally published this method actually worked, now after a couple of Windows Updates the C920 stays stuck at 30fps… Will update and make a new post if another fix is found.***

Out of curiosity I decided to search the impossible. I began pondering if it was possible to make my Logitech C920 webcam function at 60fps as opposed to 30fps. Upon doing some digging I discovered it is actually quite possible, you have to disable the “right light” setting under your Logitech Webcam properties.

Once unchecked my video was butter smooth. Of course this will be limited to the program you’re using; for example if you’re using a program that caps you at 30fps then you won’t be able to take advantage of the performance.

I’m not sure what use this will be to me, considering I mainly use VSee and that has a 30fps cap. Plus I have a rule about showing my face on the internet. It’s there if you can dig for it (albeit not an accurate representation of me today), but perhaps I can find another use.

Ready to stream!

After numerous experiments I think I’m finally ready to do some serious-ish streaming. Did some final experiments earlier with some friends watching once again. Even got FaceRig setup so people could see my… face? 😛 I will need a better camera for it though, the one I currently use is an old Sony Handycam that takes old digital tapes. You can tell it’s old because it still uses FireWire. 😛 Still a good camera though! But unfortunately I don’t use it anymore since it’s low res. I’ll probably get a 1080p Logitech of some kind so that I’ll have better face tracking and overall better clarity.
