In Topic: Any chance to avoid CamTwist to "activate" webcam?

01 October 2012 - 12:13 PM

I understand that CamTwist should be needed when webcam native resolution is different from an iSight (any of its revision).
Original webcam of Lenovo B570 (058F:A006) has a crappy 320x240 resolution (:-O).

Even with CamTwist, I wasn't able to make it work in Skype.

I found an easy way: I buy on eBay webcam of a similar Lenovo laptop and a higher resolution. I have bought a webcam for G575 (5986:0292) for $ 19 and work natively without CamTwist or AnyiSightCam.kext.

You have just to pay attention that webcam has the same form factor and same connector.

Removing the bezel is super easy, enjoy your DIY! :-)

Great, I think because 10.8.2 system update doesn't overwrite AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext.
Can you make a big favor to anyone of us? Can you zip your /Extra and /S/L/E directories and share them?
I will happy to make a step-by-step tutorial for installing 10.8.2 from scratch on B570.

I know that seems a stupid information, but can you copy and paste here your Voltage/Amperage with ML and that patch?
To see it, you should pull the plug, set to min brightness, wait a minute and look for that informations in system profiler (under Energy menu)

Thanky you!!!

wow, data14 this is great news :-O
What about battery life? At idle w/ minimum brightness, what power usage is shown in system profiler?
