Change Webcam Source

Asked by Michael Schwartz

I've been using Elementary OS since May 2013 and have been very pleased with it. I with Elementary being a distribution of Ubuntu it was a very easy migration.

I launched the Camera app but there's no way to change webcam sources, and I'd really like to use my new webcam. So I tried Software Updater which says, "The software on this system is currently up to date".

I then ran CamDesk from - https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/camdesk/jmjgcfadcmkpmkfhecfcoghmaloblkod?hl=en-US
and it works fine.

Does anyone know if there's anyway to change the webcam source in Camera or is this something that still needs to be added?
