Weird error - camera showing black and white

Hi, I'm having a weird error with MS Teams on Desktop. On my side (with the little preview window), my camera shows in colour and comes through clearly, however everyone else in the call with me ...

scurry126 Wanted to give an update on my findings.

I also reverted back to Nvidia driver version 457.51, which has resolved the issue for me. This appears to be an Nvidia driver issue with their latest version causing these problems. I have had Teams meetings all morning and everyone has told me that my video feed is fixed.

I tried uninstalling OBS and turning off Hardware Acceleration in Teams, but those didn't work. I also swapped my Nvidia card with an AMD Radeon card, which did solve the issue.

So in summary, you need to revert back to 457.51 on Nvidia cards until Nvidia releases an updated firmware to fix this issue.

I've been using the the 461.33 Hot Fix Driver for over two days and dozens of meetings without issue.

It says Zoom...are we sure this works for MS teams? I'm happy to download but worried this problem will show up again on an important work call

    bendobbo Okay I have the 461.33 hotfix driver! Still weirded it out that GeForce thinks the release date is 12/2/2020 and that this is the "latest" driver. I can still download the next update when it's pushed out you think? Sorry for being such a novice
