I'm using a DX80 as a 'second monitor' that also handles my video conferencing related needs. I have both the USB type-b/HDMI ports on the back of the DX80 connected to my desktop PC. Obviously, the DX80 has a camera on the front and I've also connected a headset to the back into one of the available USB ports.
The thing is, my PC does not seem to recognize the DX80's camera nor the headset's microphone. This means that everything works great for WebEx and Jabber, but that my PC doesn't think I have a camera or microphone (it does recognize the DX80 as a sound out device, so I can play PC audio through the DX80 speakers or the connected headset). If I want to record a PowerPoint presentation or answer a call inside of Slack - I really can't, without unplugging my headset.
Should the PC recognize either the headset or camera? Right now, I've noticed that when I unplug the USB-B connector in the back, it doesn't seem to make any difference - I was expecting that this is how the PC would be able to communicate with the connected devices?
Can someone provide some information? I can purchase a USB switch and a different webcam but I'd like to avoid it if I can get the DX80 to integrate better with the PC.
Thank you
