What should I do if captured images flicker?
This problem occurs when you use the built-in camera under fluorescent lights and is due to a mismatch
between the lighting output frequency and the shutter speed.
To reduce flicker noise, change the direction of your VAIO computer so that you can adjust the direction of
the built-in camera. Some apps offer adjustable parameters, such as brightness or power frequencies, to
eliminate flicker noise.
Why are captured images poor in quality?
Images captured under fluorescent light may contain light reflections.
A dark portion in captured images may contain noise.
The area on and around the built-in camera is soiled. Clean the area. See
Notes on the Built-in Camera
for
more information on how to clean the camera.
What should I do if captured images contain dropped frames and audio interruptions?
The effect settings on your app may cause dropped frames. Refer to the help file included with the app for
more information.
There may be more app running than your VAIO computer can handle. Exit the apps that you are not
currently using.
This problem may occur while your VAIO computer is running on the power saving plan, which reduces the
CPU performance. See
Selecting a Power Plan
to check the current power plan.
Why does the viewfinder show no images or poor-quality images?
Some camera apps may not work correctly when another camera app is running. Exit the current app before
starting another.
You may not be able to use another camera app that uses the built-in camera while using the gesture
function.
The viewfinder may show some noise, for example horizontal streaks, when you are viewing a rapid-moving
object. This is normal and does not indicate a malfunction.
If the problem persists, restart your VAIO computer.
