WEB-Camera for TV BOX: a universal solution for $ 20
A chic solution was offered by several Chinese stores at once - WEB-Camera for TV BOX is simply devoid of flaws. Everything is thought out to the smallest detail. And this approach will certainly appeal to buyers. It is not clear who the actual manufacturer is. One store indicates that this is XIAOMI XIAOVV. Other stores sell a complete analogue under a strange label: XVV-6320S-USB. But it doesn't matter, because the functionality is more interesting. And he's impressive.
WEB-Camera for TV BOX: what is it
The idea of attaching a WEB camera to a TV is not new. Owners of large-screen 4K TVs are used to a comfortable sofa or armchair in front of an LCD screen. At first, for complete happiness, there was not enough TV box with a gamepad for games. Now there is a limitation on multimedia. WEB-Camera for TV BOX can eliminate such a minor flaw.
The gadget is interesting for users who prefer to communicate with family and friends in video mode. It's one thing to see the interlocutor on the smartphone screen. And another thing is to communicate on TV. And the picture is bigger, and the convenience. Why limit yourself - there are all the tools for cool relaxation and communication. You just need to reach out and take it.

There will be no problems connecting the camera to laptops and computers. The operating system quickly detects the new device, configures it, and allows the user to work. But with Android, there are no guarantees. WEB-Camera for TV BOX has been launched with TV BOX Ugoos, Beelink and Xiaomi. But I didn't want to work directly with LG and Samsung TVs. Although, they also have Android installed and the technique is able to detect devices on USB ports.
General impressions of the XVV-6320S-USB
The 1080p format was disappointing at first. But among the analogs capable of high-quality video shooting in 4K format, there were no worthy solutions even in the price category over $ 50. Therefore, interest in video in 2160p resolution has disappeared by itself. On the other hand, FullHD is even better. The camera has good low light sensitivity. Plus, tracking autofocus works great. Sometimes, when there are several people in the frame that are at a distance from each other, the autofocus will miss. But, in just a couple of seconds, the image becomes perfectly clear along the entire perimeter of the shooting.
Pleased with the mount. It's not entirely clear where this camera can be screwed - we are talking about the hole for the tripod. But the clothespin is gorgeous. The camera is easily mounted on the TV panel, on the edge of the table, cabinet, heating pipe. Moreover, the clothespin presses the camera so that it cannot be moved inadvertently.
When connected to a TV BOX, no settings need to be made. WEB-Camera for TV BOX is detected by Android operating system. It is better to go straight to the application menu, as a new icon "Camcorder" appears on the panel. If the system does not detect the camera, do not despair. There is an interesting app in the Google store called "v380pro". It can help in the event that the TV or set-top box can recognize that something is connected to them via USB.
And another interesting moment - on TV Box Ugoos and Beelink the gadget was not only recognized by the prefix, but also rushed into all applications automatically. Even games. There was even a desire to launch a dance simulator. There were no free applications, so the idea quickly disappeared. In general, WEB-Camera for TV BOX XIAOMI XIAOVV is a very useful gadget. It connects without problems, transmits the picture, there are no questions about work. Even the $ 20 price tag looks ridiculous.
