Description m.stenzel@mail.xy-space.de 2023-05-01 20:27:17 UTC
By pressing Fn-F10 on my NovaCustom (https://configurelaptop.eu/nv40-series/) laptop the integrated webcam gets switched on (or off).
Interestingly, there is no OSD linked to this. I have OSD information as to volume, brightness, aeroplane mode, internal/external display, etc. but no information as to the webcam status.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Press Fn-F10
2. Active/deactivate webcam

OBSERVED RESULT
No OSD activation

EXPECTED RESULT
OSD gets activated
