When I use any software for video chat or video capture, it says "Bluetooth video service not running". I have a sony vaio laptop and use an in-built cam.
 
bluetooth video service not running

In Skype go to tools/ options/ video settings/ select webcam and then choose Sony visual communication camera.
 
Vaio

This happened to me too - but how did it get switched to Bluetooth in the first place?
Thanks for the assistance!

hey i have this problem with justin tv.... does anyone know how to fix this its really annoying

just unhook your power suply and suck all of the juice out of the batteries, then wait 20-30 minutes switch it back on and that should do th trick. It flushes your register and usb port data. worked fine for me..
