			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Sorry about the necro-post, but I have this same problem and I was hoping someone, anyone could help me out with it. 

I have the c920 and when setting the exposure (pretty much the only setting you can play with that gives a good result) to something that looks good, dark lines begin moving down the screen and are visible on the captured image. It is possible to get rid of the lines by setting the exposure higher/lower but at the cost of a good, well-exposed image. 

I would appreciate any help that can get me closer to solving this really annoying problem. I have contacted someone who seems to know a solution for this problem, but in the meantime I would still appreciate some help.]]></content>

Interestingly, I still can't find how to set it on the camera settings; I found an option in Monkeyjam that allowed me to adjust it.

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[I always thought it would be best to have the exposure high and the gain as low as possible to obtain a consistantcy.  I could be wrong here but that's how I film with my 910.

More than happy to be corrected here.!]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Thanks for the feedback guys. I don't think it's the exposure due to me not being able to lower the exposure any further. Also, like I said, I have 3 lights: all Ottlites (they're awesome, but a little spendy). However, the webcam randomly started working fine again, so I dunno what the matter was.
Again, thanks. :)]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Sounds like something I call Chaotic Flicker. It's light flicker caused by the light reflecting off of the moving Lego. Having the settings too high increases your camera's sensitivity to these slight reflections.

It can be fixed by turning down your light settings (Exposure, Gain, and Brightness; especially the Gain). If it's too dark after you do that, add more lamps (usually, you need 3-4 lamps for this to work).]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[So, I have the c920 and have been having terrible light flicker. For some reason there is tending to be darker and lighter lines that move around between pictures. Does anyone have some clue as to why?

Also, to eliminate these possibilities, I where dark clothes, block light from my windows and door, have 3 lights that don't move, everything is on manual, and I tend to stay in the same spot between frames.
Any advice would be appreciated. :)]]></content>
