Hello
Under Teams Classic - there used to be a number of camera settings under Settings > Devices > Camera such as Zoom/Pan/Tilt. Those settings no longer appear, to my knowledge, in New Teams. Am I missing something or did this feature not carry over?
Also, the webcam I am using, a Poly P5, has local software installed but those zoom/pan/tilt settings have never carried over to Teams (Classic or New).
Any advice? Did this feature disappear forever or am I missing where it is?

Same issue for me - we use the Yealink UVC30 4k cameras and they consistently default back to a wide FOV - in the "classic Teams" you could adjust pan/tilt/zoom - now there is nothing.
Did anyone actually get to the bottom of why this has been removed in "new Teams"?

Thank you for the tip, but when I extracted the ffmpeg file, at first I could not find the .exe file but then took a closer look and I had downloaded the code instead. I have now found the correct .exe file.
I tried to write a bat file, but I don't think I got it quite right.
@echo off
cd "C:\Users\OneDrive - Adobe\Documents\LAP\ffmpeg files\ffmpeg-master-latest-win64-gpl\bin>ffmpeg -f dshow -show_video_device_dialog true -i video="Logitech Webcam C925e""
pause
Is this the correct way? Any guidance from you guys on how to correct this bat file would be very helpful!

This is what mine looks like:
cd "D:\Programs\ffmpeg-N-112848-g2020ef9770-win64-gpl\bin"
ffmpeg -f dshow -show_video_device_dialog true -i video="NexiGo N930AF FHD Webcam"
Here's what worked for me. Put the following in a text editor:
cd "Full\Path\to\ffmpeg\bin\folder"
.\ffmpeg -f dshow -show_video_device_dialog true -i video="Camera Name"
Camera Name is literally what's listed as the camera's name in Windows Settings -> Devices. Save the file with a .bat extension, then double-click it to run it.
Note that, as I understand it, you'll have to create a different .bat file for each camera you intend to use.
I'm in WIndows 11 and it does not work there either.

I was having the exact same problems as all other comments. Logitech camera, used Device Options daily to fix zoom. New Teams missing the option. I was able to download/extract ffmpeg on my office PC (no "install" necessary), and run the commands in a command prompt to get the same settings window to open while running the New Teams. I then saved those commands into a .bat file that I can run daily to open the options window. The only issue is the warning from Windows Defender that I have to bypass every time to run the batch file. Thanks for the tip, this solution is an adequate workaround until New Teams includes the same option as classic Teams. Like other commenters have said, New Teams should have this functionality. New Teams should respect the device settings as defined by the system. New Teams should not reset to system default settings after reboot or coming back from sleep mode. Until then, this works out okay. Thanks for the tip!

Glad it's working for you. Interestingly I dont seem to get the Defender warning... no idea why...
