2 Find log entries for the webcam or microphone.
a Open the debug log le with a text editor.
The log le with real-time audio-video log messages is located at /tmp/vmware-<username>/vmware-
RTAV-<pid>.log. The client log is located at /tmp/vmware-<username>/vmware-view-<pid>.log.
b Search the log le to nd the log le entries that reference the aached webcams and microphones.
The following example shows an extract of the webcam selection:
