2 Find log entries for the webcam or microphone in the Real-Time Audio-Video log file.
a In a text editor, open the Real-Time Audio-Video log file.
The Real-Time Audio-Video log file is named ~/Library/Logs/VMware/vmware-RTAV-pid.log,
where pid is the process ID of the current session.
b Search the Real-Time Audio-Video log file for entries that identify the attached webcams or
microphones.
The following example shows how webcam entries might appear in the Real-Time Audio-Video log
file:

3 Find the webcam or microphone that you prefer in the Real-Time Audio-Video log file and make a
note of its user ID.
The user ID appears after the string UserId= in the log file. For example, the user ID of the internal
face time camera is FaceTime HD Camera (Built-in) and the user ID of the internal microphone is
Built-in Microphone.
