Hi! In Microsoft Teams during the video calls I can't see myself in the viewfinder. Everyone else can see me in the chat but I don't have the little mini video of myself in the corner. Anyone know how to turn it on?

    Hi NocoleOC,

    If you have further questions related to this, please let us know.

    Kind Regards,

    Yes, we're all *still* waiting for a fix, when will it come?

    It's even broken in /testcall - toggling video on and off shows and hides the black video bar at the bottom but no self view. The camera passes the test even though it's clearly not working.

    Everybody can see me and Zoom works perfectly so it's not a fatal device error.

    Even an acknowledgement that MS is working on an urgent fix would be nice. We are *not* going to migrate our organisation from Zoom to Teams for call until you stop breaking basic stuff like this.

    What worked for me was log/sign out of my account in Teams, quitting the app and restarting the software then logging back in. That seemed to reset my camera settings and fixed the issue.
