Selecting Webcam as the source from the source menu will take the video input from the Webcam and output it at close to the selected resolution. If you have another Logitech webcam that you would like included please report it on the BATC Forum and we will try to modify the software for compatibility. The normal Webcam modes have been tested with The Logitech C170, C525, C910 and C920.

Some Webcams will also work at 576p and 720p widescreen resolutions. In the normal webcam modes, the webcam acts just the same as any video source and can be encoded in MPEG-2 (with audio) or H264 (without audio). The incompatibility issue has been resolved since Portsdown Stretch update 201902072 and the two cameras should now co-exist. It hangs half-way through shutdown, but may then be safely powered off. Note that if you do boot-up with the Webcam and Pi Camera both connected, the Portsdown will not cleanly shutdown. There is no issue if the RPi Camera is not connected.
#OLD LOGITECH WEBCAM C170 DRIVERS#
This is because of an incompatibility between the way that the RPi Camera drivers are loaded and the way that the Webcam drivers are loaded. In Portsdown Stretch (pre 201902072), the use of a Webcam with the RPi Camera connected requires that the webcam is unplugged at boot, and only plugged in once the Portsdown has booted up. The only versions tested so far are the Logitech C170 (a very old basic 640x480 device), the Logitech C310, the Logitech C525, the Logitech C910 and the Logitech C920 (full HD with internal H264 encoding). Portsdown software version 201803061 introduces proper support for some Logitech Webcams.
