Webcam for Android TV


Hello I have heard that there are many problems with the microphone of your webcam on your Android TV television. I heard that the microphone is not working. I have now installed Duo on the Android TV and would like to know which webcam I can buy to use Google Duo.

Hello,
Could you please add more web cam support for the DUO video calling app? It remains one of the few applications for android tv but it does not see webcams that other apps can see. For example:iCatchtek SPCA6330.

And also making DUO on laptop more easy for older people, with functions like auto-start and auto-answer. I usually use Skype with my grandparents because of this functionalities but with android TV I can't , I still have to rely on my laptop and duo could fill this gap.

Thanks

I have tried Webcam on 3 Android 9 TV's

1. Sony 55"  
2. TCL 55"
3. Philips 43"

None of these TV's will populate the normal App menu with Duo and to make a call you have to open the PlayStore Account Menu and find the App from within there. 

Receiving calls is much easier, both the Sony & Philips would happily open the Duo App automatically.

So as most if not all are finding no success with sending audio via the Webcam microphone.

The relevance of the following article unknown, but definitely worth a read.

Same issue. Logitech Streamcam brings up video and audio but when you make a call it says the microphone is in use by another application.

Using android TV google duo app, can't hear the other person but they can hear me. Also happens if I connect my chromebook to the TV via HDMI, can't hear the other person, they can hear me. Chromebook duo works fine when not connected to the TV.
