Camera and Mic Permissions

Camera/mic failures usually sit at three layers: browser site permission, OS privacy settings and app exclusivity. Check the address-bar icon, then OS settings, then close meeting/streaming/recording apps. If it still fails, try another browser, port or cable before blaming the hardware.
