How to get rid of artifacts in the image from the camera?

Question

Iron

There is a webcam 1080p 30fps
It works fine on the laptop, without any complaints

When connected to a stationary PC, artifacts begin, but only at a resolution >= 720p
What we tried to do:

• Demolish drivers
  
• Update drivers (video cards, and cameras)
  
• swap to different usb slots
  
• Installed K-Little codec pack
  
• Put another webcam (Did not take off)
  

From the last point, I can say that the problem is clearly in the PC

. At the same time, other peripheral devices are working normally

Image example -


And thus the picture shimmers like in a kaleidoscope

Tested in programs:

• OBS
  
• Opera, Chrome (webcamera testing site)
  
• Discord
  
• The stock camera app in Windows 10
  

Answer 1

Once everything is correct on the laptop, and

swap to different usb slots

have already done. That is definitely not a hardware problem.
You can demolish the driver / Update the driver in different ways, and frankly, you can rummage. Cleaning the registry, etc. takes place. If the laptop shows everything okay, in all resolutions, then the problem is most likely in your stationary PC, namely, with its problem it displays the image from the webcam correctly.
You correctly wrote above about codecs. We do not know what image your webcam produces, and in what format / stream, etc. First, try updating the drivers not for the webcam, but for the video card.

Answer 2

Change video codecs

Answer 3

what program does this happen in?
for example, when using browser codecs, is it normally broadcast (try talky.io)?
almost certainly the problem is not in the camera, but in this program, it encodes crookedly with a
ps error. Have you had a video card on a stationary one for years?

Answer 4

To all of the above: video card drivers may not work, and everything is captured and drawn by the processor. Look at the CPU load while the program is running.
And yes - update (or try others) software, camera and video card drivers, codecs.
