New Teams: Camera Settings Gone

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?

    Thanks for the information. I am currently using old teams because I really do need to have zoom feature, and I like the exposure/brightness etc control as well. I can't install FFMPEG or have that done for me with my org, as its more locked down, so I really do benefit a lot from the device settings options. Well, not just benefit, but frankly *need* given my office space, and the way it helps me to be much more professionally presented with more control.

    There's nothing to install, as ffmpeg is portable. Most orgs don't have an executable whitelist, so you should be fine.

    Thank you. This fixed it for me. All the needed features are in the Logitech app.

    FFMPEG doesn't need to be "installed", but is simply an executable that I run from the command line. But your organization may prevent you from running exe files. The only error I get on my work PC is a bypassable Windows Defender warning when I run the .bat file with the command line code.

    Yes, if you have admin permissions on the PC you can install Logi Tune, which is the official way of accessing current gen Logitech webcam controls.
