™ Change background
This option enables you to replace the actual (real-time)
background image by one from the WebCam background list
or by one of your own pictures.
Note: When changing the background, make sure that:
- the actual background is static. There should be no
movement within the WebCam field of view. Not even the
movement of a curtain.
- there is sufficient light in the room. The better the lighting
conditions, the better the performance of the ‘Change
background’ feature.
- lighting conditions are not changed. Even a slight change
in the lighting conditions will negatively influence the
image.
- the colors of the cloths you wear are not the same as the
background color.

will negatively influence the image.
