    Tough one. Surface 3 is using rear camera for job app "hello" vid


    Good day,

    I'm applying to teach English on Cambly. When I go to record the video to introduce myself, I'm looking at my toes! It's using the "out" facing camera. For the camera app, it's using the camera that faces me so that isn't the issue.

    As I'm applying to a job, I don't want to be scrambling to the back of my computer to press "record" and "stop" or have the video start with a shot of the wall.

    I don't want a work around if don't have to. Would like to solve it correctly so can see myself during the video.

    Thank you.

    This is a stab in the dark. Could it be the IR recognition interfering with camera choice? This probably has zero bearing on it, but take a look here.
