Can you use any web cam with this TV or do you have to buy a specific one?

You need the one made for LG. If your model is 2012 or newer you can buy the 400 series. I have a 2011 model so I needed the 200 series which works great. I had to send the 400 series cam back.

In order for a webcam to work, the operating system would need to have an appropriate driver to run the camera. Google TV does not include any webcam drivers and since Google TV's operating system is "read only" there is no way to put drivers onto it. Therefor, it is impossible to put a webcam onto this device.

I ordered a similar model about 9 months ago and it didn't have a webcam. However, with a lot of laptops you have to get the serial number of the system and check on the manufacturer's website to find out.

If it has HDMI inputs, you can get most of the boxes to work with it: Roku, Sony Google TV, Amazon FireTV, in addition to this Panasonic DMP-MST60. Google's ChromeCast will work if you have Smartphone/tablets. If you are not tech savvy, buy Roku. I haven't tried FireTV, I love Sony Google TV among the rest.

You can use any analog camera. The higher the TVL resolution, the better the picture. This card also has the ability to record audio, if the camera is compatible.

All the webcams stream video. It is controlled by the software rather than the camera itself. Some software is designed to work only with a particular brand whereas other software is designed to work across many brands. You need a host site for your account. Some are free while others charge. Video can be streamed to your computer continuously or by motion trigger depending upon software settings. The setup can be tricky. You have to worry about firewalls blocking the video stream, setup of the camera, the host website, your router and your PC. They are a great tool for security and status monitoring. You can have multiple webcams viewable on the same screen. All the webcams stream video. It is controlled by the software rather than the camera itself.

Yes, any USB camara will do, but not sure if Skype is working on this TV. Try Aptoide and download it first and see if it recognize it first. But, I don't have one on my TV so not sure. Research on YouTube and other sites before spending any money. Or ask your retailer if you can get your money back if item return open.

Yes, every modern laptop will have a basic webcam. From the specs: 0.3MP Camera

yes - with any brand. All the software you need is actualy on the webcam, not the TV. I have 2 of these and use them on a Vizio, LG and Sharp TV. happy with the product - use it to stay in touch with family overseas. easy to use and will ring when TV is off (if you set it that way). Can be used as surveillance for your house if you have 2 skype accounts and use one to call the other, when the auto answer is set to ON.

Any miniDV camera will work, so you can buy the cheapest one you can find. Just makes sures its miniDV and that it has a firewire port (most do but some don't)

Yes there is a web cam. It does not work as well as I would like why I do not know? It seems to be a little grainy? Why

We have never tried to attach a web cam but it has a USB port that works for other devices so probably but no proof.

I have this and I do not use it much. From what I can tell just the basic web cam works, no other features work. What I have come to realize is the only Mac that does not come with a web cam built in is the mini (which is what I have), so not many companies produce a web cam that is compatible. This was one of two I found that are supposed to work with Mac, I don't remember what the other one is but i tried that one first and it did not work. I don't know if this helps, sorry if it doesn't.

Yes! This TV has a HDMI input so you can connect your computer to it. It's working very well. Best of all, there is a "PC" setting, so you can easily switch between TV, DVD & PC. I also purchased a wireless keyboard so I can navigate the computer from my couch. With this setup, you'll never need a web TV.

the best to get the right camera is to start video call on Skype or other program on you tv and the message appears what camera you need to buy. I have Samsung TV but different serial number, this camera is great, small and slick and fantastic picture quality. you can also go to Samsung website to find out exactly what you need. hope I help you.
