Cr-48 webcam not working on Chrome OS 433.257 (Official Build) stable-channel x86-mario

I found a solution in the chromium-os code discussion forum located at this link:

http://code.google.com/p/chromium-os/issues/detail?id=13741&can=1&q=plugin%20for%20webcam&colspec=ID%20Stars%20Pri%20Area%20Type%20Status%20Summary%20Modified%20Owner%20Mstone

Here is an excerpt of the discussion:

The following normally resolves the issue:
1. Enter "chrome://plugins" into the Omnibar, without the quotes.

2. Expand the (+) on the extreme right side of the display.

3. If there are multiple version of Flash, disable: /opt/google/chrome/pepper/libpepflashplayer.so

4. Open a new instance of the program using the webcam, and see if it works.


A later comment confirmed: The Pepper Flash in Chrome OS right now (R12) doesn't support mic or cam access. We will work to enable it in a future release. Thanks for your patience.


If you have any questions, let me know.:
