Zoom Video Image question

[Mike Marchywka]

I found that qv4l2 could manipulate camera parameters with zoom
open and you could see the results right away.
I tend to use uvccapture but cant' remember if that work with 
zoom and left last used values.

Good evening I installed zoom using a Logitech C270 HD WEBCAM for video,
every thing works as expected except for my image on the screen. It is
very dark how do I increase the brightness?

I am running 22.04 LTS

In addition to the points Karl made (check your room illumination and look for a cover on the lens)

If your computer also has a built-in camera you may need to select the camera you installed instead of the built-in one.

You might also try another app to see if your results are different. Try the Cheese application in Ubuntu. (You may have to install it.) Are the results similar in Cheese?
