    im not sure but I do know a few people have returned them and gone back to the 9000. I wouldn't trade mine for any other cam and in fact plan to buy a few more. I have 2 because I dont' want to be without one!

    idk why but my c920 refuses to work with the encoder;
    in fact whern i first tried it out it Fucked up my hp touchsmart 520 so bad it shut down.
    so idk what the deal is
    im considering checking bh photo and seeing if there is a higher up cam that i can get

    Well I used mine with the encoder and it worked fine, but I did have to reinstall windows on my computer recently and since then, whenever I change my aspect ratio to 640x480, the encoder crashes... I found that I just used a larger size & it fixed my issue. Exactly WHAT is wrong with yours? Cuz aside from the encoder, I LOVE my c920

    well, when i open my encoder and i switch the cam source to the c920 it says the device you are using is either broken or not working.
    strange.. lol cuz it works fine otherwise.
    so thats where im a bit confused.
    you reinstalled windows?
    ill have to contact my hp support for that since my computer is still under warranty,
    ill do that after im done working this afternoon

    Try using the other version of the encoder

    I can not cam on the encoder 3.1 my sound is all messed up.

    But I can cam just find on 3.2. ( and I do not have top of line computer)

    you can have both on your computer you just have to download 3.2 first then 3.1

    .... I spoke too soon. I had gotten the encoder to work for me for a while. I was on cam earlier for about 2 hours. Moved my laptop into the living room, now the encoder won't start without crashing IMMEDIATELY. reinstalled the encoder, reinstalled the logitech software... I am ready to SMASH this webcam. In the meantime, I have to work imlive. (((((((( I Am so frustrated, I'm in tears. I don't understand why this is happening, and Logitech is SO lucky they are closed, because they would have a really angry woman on their hands right now, and they WILL tomorrow. I want a different webcam.

    Take that back too. Imlive won't even work. NOTHING except the logitech software will start the stupid piece of shit C920. I am definitely even MORE upset now. This webcam cost me $80.... And it won't work at all, not even 6 months later? UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

    A system restore? GRR! My computer claims I'm missing some file to do a restore and last time I reinstalled windows, it caused the encoder to act even worse! I want to harrass logitech SO MUCH! I dont know how I'm supposed to make any money My cam works FINE through regular streamate, with no encoder, but as soon as I start the encoder, it immediately disappears If anyone can help, PLEASE DO!!! I am at my wit's end, I don't know what to do anymore.

    and by the way; its NOT my encoder its my cam. because i used my built in webcam on my hp touchsmart desktop all in one; and it worked just fine. adobe encoder 3.2 version. all settings are set correctly and everything my issue is; i cant make very much on a webcam that is immobile. since i move it around alot for shows and especially gold shows i like different angles ugh!
    and also my hp webcam is a whopping 1 megapixel, where as my logitech is top of the line. UGH!!!

    I am bumping this thread because of the new Widescreen option Streamate is trying to convince us to move over too. One of the two cameras they RECOMEND to use with the encoder is the Logitech C920.

    Are girls still having trouble with it crashing their encoders?

    I was thinking about purchasing one since my Logitech 9000 light sensor seems to be glitching but now I have no idea what I should purchase. (*sighs*)

    I have been using my C920 with the widescreen settings and I've had no problems so far. For the record, I DID have problems with the encoder crashing recently, but it was while I was using the old settings. I was able to solve that particular problem by using Firefox instead of Chrome for a while...of course I didn't figure out that solution until I had uninstalled and reinstalled everything from my Logitech software to freaking Windows itself. Ah well, it's all working great now! *knocks on wood*

    Pretty sure they only recommend the 920 because its a newer model of the 910. The 910 is superior IMO. 920 is brown and grainy. 9000 is yellow.
