If your Asus laptop computer shipped with an integrated webcam, you might want to adjust the device's settings to improve image quality before capturing video clips or video chatting with online friends. The Asus LifeFrame software bundled with all webcam-equipped Asus laptop computers controls the device's video settings. Launch Asus LifeFrame to adjust all webcam settings, including color, contrast, audio volume and video resolution.
