Troubleshooting Microphone and Camera Issues in Connect Meetings

When both the web camera and the microphone do not work in an Adobe Connect Meeting, it is often caused by a restriction setting in the mms.cfg file.

The mms.cfg file it is found in the following directories:

• Windows 32: C:/Windows/system32/Macromed/Flash (32-bit Windows)
• Windows 64: C:/Windows/SysWOW64/Macromed/Flash (64-bit Windows)
• MAC: MainDisk:Library:Application Support:Macromedia

Renaming or deleting the mms.cfg to mms.old is one way to solve the issue, but often it is more prudent (less intrusive) to edit the file. Open the mms.cfg in any text editor and look for the line:

AVHardwareDisable

Delete the setting AVHardwareDisable from mms.cfg and save the file. This setting deliberately prevents the Meeting SWF from gaining access to cameras and microphones on the Meeting client.
