Chrome on desktop or Android
When the site asks for access, choose Allow for the correct camera and microphone. If you blocked it earlier, open the lock or tune icon in the address bar → Site settings → set Camera and Microphone to Allow, then reload the page.
On Android Chrome, also check system Settings → Apps → Chrome → Permissions if access still fails.
Safari on iPhone, iPad, or Mac
Safari prompts when the site requests access. Tap Allow. If you denied it, go to Settings → Safari → Camera / Microphone (or Settings → Privacy & Security → Camera / Microphone on Mac) and enable access for Safari, then reload OmgTV.
On Mac Safari, you can also use Safari → Settings for This Website to reset camera and microphone for the site.
No picture, no sound, or “device in use”
Confirm the correct camera and mic are selected in the browser prompt and in any in-product device picker.
Close other apps that might be using the camera (other browsers, meeting apps, or the Camera app on mobile). Unplug and replug external devices if needed.
Check physical mute switches, system mute, and headphone connections. After changing permissions, fully reload the video page.
- Reload the tab after allowing permissions.
- Try a private window only if you understand you may need to sign in again.
- Restart the browser if the device list still looks empty.
FAQ
Why does the homepage never ask for my camera?
OmgTV’s marketing pages do not need device access. Permission is requested when you continue with video setup in the main experience.
Could another tab still be using my camera?
Yes. Browsers often allow only one active video capture at a time. Close other tabs or apps that might be using the device.
