Technical Basics
An operating system (OS) is system software that manages computer hardware, software resources, and provides common services for computer programs.
The three most common operating systems for personal computers are Microsoft Windows, macOS, and Linux. JasminCam is available for Windows and macOS only.
Modern operating systems use a graphical user interface, or GUI. A GUI lets you use your mouse to click icons, buttons, and menus, and everything is clearly displayed on the screen using a combination of graphics and text.
A driver provides a software interface to hardware devices, enabling operating systems and other computer programs to access hardware functions without needing to know precise details about the hardware being used.
Hardware devices that are unknown by the operating system or that have features that are unknown by the operating system all require drivers. If the appropriate driver is not installed, the device may not function properly.
A VPN, or Virtual Private Network, allows you to create a secure connection to another network over the Internet. VPNs can be used to access region-restricted websites for example.
VPN will always decrease the internet speed, as it adds a number of steps that were not present in the connection before.
One of the primary causes of Internet latency is the physical distance between locations where data is accessed and delivered. The reduction in speed is due to the encryption process of your internet data which a VPN implements to make everything safe and secure.
How to find the CPU / GPU?
The available graphics adapters are listed under Display adapters.
In the search box on the taskbar, type Device Manager, then select from the menu.
What is “dxdiag”?
DxDiag (DirectX Diagnostic Tool) is a diagnostics tool used to test DirectX functionality and troubleshoot video- or sound-related hardware problems.
Checking the date and version of the graphics driver:
Open start menu, type run or keyboard shortcut Windows + R
Type dxdiag and press enter
Integrated GPU
In case of integrated graphics the built in adapter should be something similar to Intel HD Graphics. (with intel processors)
If the intel processor has built in graphics and not listed in the Device manager, then it is disabled in the BIOS.
To determine if the processor includes Quick Sync check the list or the official intel site of the exact processor.
Quick Sync is available only with intel. You may find the list of QuickSync processors here.
If there is no processor graphics part on the official intel site, it means the processor has no built in graphics.
For the proper working the latest driver should be installed. Intel Driver & Support Assistant.
Dedicated GPU
In case of using a dedicated video card, an Nvida card that has NVENC video encoding OR an AMD card that comes with VCE/VCN encoding is necessary for HD (1280x720p) and FullHD (1920x1080p) streaming.
Nvidia video card:
You may find the list of Nvidia graphics with NVENC here:
https://developer.nvidia.com/video-encode-decode-gpu-support-matrix
For the proper working the latest Nvidia Geforce Game Ready driver should be installed.
https://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx
Alternatively, you may install the Nvidia Geforce Experience. It will automatically install the right Nvidia driver.
https://www.nvidia.com/en-eu/geforce/geforce-experience/
AMD (Radeon) video card:
Note, that not all AMD cards come with VCE/VCN encoding.
AMD software to keep the drivers up to date: https://www.amd.com/en/support
Any AMD graphics card released in 2012 and later should come with VCE/VCN encoding.
A list of card series can be found here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_AMD_graphics_processing_units
Please note that AMD’s Oland-series cards do not have this feature.
Or visit their website and search for your card’s specific driver from their downloads list.
The following AMD Radeon™ Graphics cards do not have H264 encoding:

Updating CPU & GPU DriversGPU Driver update for PC’s with Integrated and Dedicated GPU’s. Integrated + Dedicated GPU When installing drivers for a PC with both an integrated (built into the CPU) and a dedicated (separate card) GPU setup, the order of driver installation is important for several reasons, such as ensuring system stability, compatibility, and optimal performance. Install the drivers for the integrated graphics first. This step is crucial because the integrated GPU often handles basic display outputs (specially on laptops) until the dedicated GPU takes over. Finally, install the drivers for the dedicated graphics card. Since the dedicated GPU will likely be the primary source for intensive graphical tasks, installing its drivers last ensures that it can take control over the integrated graphics without conflict IntelIntel Driver & Support Assistant tool:

Low FPS/Video issues troubleshooting
Check the CPU and RAM usage. (Ideally should be under 85%)
- If the values are high → Close running apps, Browser pages, Antivirus → Check Task Manager Processes tab for high CPU/RAM usage apps.
- Check the camera angle / lighting
- Direct Lighting, Backlighting, Inadequate Lighting (Darkness), Reflective Surfaces (Mirrors, Glass) could also cause fps issues.
- If the model is online with a Splitter.
- Set the same resolution in the splitter, as it is set in JasminCam/MegaCams
- Adjust the FPS to 30 in the splitter app
- Bring the performer online without Splitter software
- Adjust camera settings further
- Set all to default if needed
- Disable auto functions
- Disable “RightLight/Low Light Compensation”.
- Lower Exposure value. Setting it too high can cause lagging as well, (lower ones will cause flickering.)
- Avoid too high color settings, or sharpness.
- Replug camera into another USB port. USB 2.0 is required at least.
Use rear ports. Make sure there’s no extension cable on the USB.
- Check Windows Updates
- Check GPU Drivers
- Lower the resolution.

Inappropriate Camera Quality
The purpose of the following policy is to ensure that Performers streaming on the site meet the high quality expectations of our Members, represent our business priorities, and uphold our brand image.
Streams that do not reach the minimum requirements of their category either from an aesthetic or from a technical perspective, should be suspended with “Inappropriate camera quality” violation
- Aesthetics:
- Extremely dark or overly bright stream
- Extremely small room
- Damaged, dirty, messy room
- Technical:
- Low FPS, Heavy Lagging (under 20 FPS)
- Pixelated image
- No video feed
- Distorted video feed
- Flickering image
- Aesthetics:
- Evidence where the issue is visible must be included with the violation.
- For the account activation Performers must prove the quality of the stream on a Camtest account.
- Watermark / Effects
- Turn off the Source in OBS
- Turn off any third-party apps that might be affecting the video feed.
- All kind of watermarks are prohibited, especially Lovense pricetables, Lovense watermarks, DMCA logos, personal information
- Audio Issues
- No audio – Common reasons:
- The device is incorrectly set in JasminCam (or in the Splitter software)
- Wrong device is selected in the OS (Windows – Control Panel – Sound – Recording) – Make sure that only one device is enabled, and set it as “default”.
- Record volume is set too low (In Control Panel/Sound/Recording right-click on the recording device and adjust in the Levels tab)
- Device is physically muted
- Unintelligible audio – Common reasons:
- Internal – Microphone or the cable is low quality, incorrectly connected, faulty device/cable; extremely low internet connection speed
- External – Microphone is too far; Some external factor distorts the audio (Eg.: A fan is located too close to the recording device), background music is too loud
- Echoing audio – Common reasons:
- Playback is enabled causing the microphone pickup up the same sounds over and over again (In Control Panel/Sound/Recording right-click on the recording device and uncheck “Listen to this device” under Listen tab)
- Spacious but empty rooms with a sensitive setting could cause echoing as well. (In rare cases the performer might be using a condenser mic – if so, recommend changing to a dynamic mic instead)
- Delayed audio – Common reasons:
- High CPU load – turning unnecessary software, browser pages off could solve it
- Extremely low connection speed – Network troubleshooting is necessary
- Certain streaming software, splitters have more complex audio settings. If so, recommend to check the sound frequency settings. (44.1KHz is a safe default with crystal clear quality)
- In case the delay is consistent, and the performer is using some complex streaming software (Eg.: OBS, Streamlabs) you can recommend to try fixing with “Audio sync offset” (For example: If their audio is delayed by consistent 1 sec, settings “-1000ms” could fix it)
- No audio – Common reasons:
- Feature Issues
- Feature is not working / not working as intended → Reinstall JasminCam, check Windows Updates
- UI Issues
- Can’t see chat messages / Text entry field beyond Monitor bounds → Check Windows Display Settings (Scale & Layout; Text Size)
- Notification / Alerts not working → Check JasminCam settings → Check Windows Audio Mixer
- Splitter Issues:
- Non-supported splitters: Snap Camera, Logi Capture, XCams, YY, SplitCam – they tend to cause lagging and pixelation issues
- OBS:
OBS phone camera plugins to look out for
OBS has some plugins, which enable using a smartphone’s camera for streaming, however, these camera devices are non-supported and are known for causing issues with JC5.
Keep an eye out for the applications listed below when checking a Performer’s camera in MegaCams:
-Camo/Camo Cam
-Continuity Camera
-DroidCam
-EpocCam/Elgato EpocCam
-NDI HX Camera
-VDO Camera/VDO NinjaNo Virtual Camera available in OBS when Model wants to stream at 480p In certain cases, the Virtual Camera may not be visible in JasminCam, if the canvas is not correctly set for 480p streaming in the settings.
When the Output (Scaled) Resolution (in File→ Settings → Video) is set to 854×480, the option is not visible in JasminCam.
Be sure that the Output Resolution is set to 864×480 in these cases.
Note: Virtual Camera may also be unavailable, if the FPS is not set to 30.
No Virtual Camera available in OBS In case of a regular default install:
File Explorer → C:\Program Files\obs-studio\data\obs-plugins\win-dshow → virtualcam-install.bat → Run as Admin
If the Virtual Camera needs to be removed first, run virtualcam-uninstall.bat instead, then do the steps above.If you have installed OBS Studio to a different folder or you are using Portable Mode:
- right-click your OBS Studio shortcut and select Open File Location
- in File Explorer, right-click virtualcam-install.bat and select Run as Administrator
No OBS Virtual Camera available in JasminCam In certain cases, the output for the Virtual Camera may be incorrectly set.
If no other apps are interfering;
- Click on the gear icon next to “Start Virtual Camera”.
- Set Output Type to “Scene”.
- Set Output Selection to the active scene you would like to use.
- Click “OK”.
MAC – Virtual Camera is not installed
Privacy & Security – scroll down to Security part
Because OBS needed extra permissions to what it already had, a button appeared called ‘Details‘ in that Security section.
By clicking on that ‘Details’ button you can see any apps that are blocked, which included OBS. Enabling OBS there then allowed the virtual camera to work as a webcam in Zoom. All up and running, and ready to broadcast!
I restarted OBS but am not sure if I needed to.Lovense OBS Toolset In many cases, Performers use the official Lovense OBS Toolset for displaying their toy prices and other information, as well as creating customized overlays.
However, these are not allowed on the site for our standard categories at all. You can ask the Performer to disable the Toolset in a few easy steps:
- Open OBS
- Find the Sources panel (it’s located in the bottom-left side of the window by default)
- In order for the Lovense OBS Toolset to be visible, it must be arranged to the top of the list among the Sources
- Either hide (with the small eye icon) or place the Toolset lower in the list to clear it from the stream
You can also advise the Performers to delete it from the Sources completely.
In case of stream quality decrease due to bitrate/bandwidth Settings → Advanced → Network → check the box next to the option that says “Dynamically change bitrate to manage congestion”
This feature detects when your internet connection is limited, and will automatically reduce your bitrate to compensate rather than dropping frames. Once any congestion disappears, it will automatically raise your bitrate back to its original value.
Can’t select preferred Devices / Resolution
- HD(1280x720p)/FHD(1920x1080p) resolution is missing
- JasminCam can’t find Camera / Microphone device
HD/FHD resolution is missing
The Full HD (1080p) requires the same hardware specifications as HD, for network speed 6.0 MBPS upload is required, if the JasminCam speedtest gets a value lower than this it will not allow the performer to go online with Full HD.
HD(1280x720p)/FHD(1920x1080p) resolution does not appear in the Video Quality list for any hardware encoding option |
|
1280x720p resolution does not appear in the Video Quality list for Intel CPU hardware encoding |
|
CPU is overloaded when Model has Intel CPU hardware encoding enabled |
|
JasminCam can’t find Camera / Microphone device
- Close JasminCam completely
- Make sure no application is using the device (Splitters, Video editors… all closed)
- Replug the device to another USB slot (usually rear slots work best)
- Reinstall JasminCam
- Update Windows
- Download and install the device’s dedicated software (if any)
- Check if the device is missing a firmware update
Vibes Messenger
Vibes Messenger is available on both on iOS or Android operating systems.
Models should always download the latest version from the related app stores, via their own smartphone.
Known compatibility issues
Huawei devices
- Some Huawei phones are not using Android OS (Harmony OS), they are not able to download from the Play Store. The app won’t be uploaded for the Huawei store named the App Gallery.
In short, the app won’t be available for these devices. - Some latest Huawei devices might have Android OS, but they could still lack Google Play Store, thus the app will not be available on these devices as well!
- Older Huawei phones might still be able to support the app, if the OS is up to date and the Google Play Store is available.
- Always ask Models with such devices to check for the Google Play Store first. If it’s not there, then they can’t use the app on that phone.
Google Pixel devices
- If used in portrait mode during video calls, these devices provide distorted, low quality feeds. (Still to be confirmed, but in landscape mode this issue might not be present)
Comparison of features and requirements.
Android | Apple | |
---|---|---|
OS | Minimum OS version is decided by App stores according to the feature set. If a device is not compatible the app cannot be installed (at the moment it should be Android 9.0 and iOS 14.0 minimum).

Video Call – Troubleshooting
Extra features
Picture-in-picture is available on Android for Video Call – when the model puts the ongoing VC in the background, she can still see the member in a miniature feed to continue doing other things on the phone, leaving the VC uninterrupted.
Interactive toy can now be used during Video Calls as well.
Video call can be enabled in the Messages menu or from the Settings menu.
- Turning the feature on and off
- Performer can turn feature on/off in the Vibes Messenger App only! Cannot be turned on in the desktop versions of Model Center or in the mobile browser.
- Performer can set the Video Call to “ON” even when they are online on Livejasmin
(Members should be able to turn off their microphone/camera and they are also able to switch cameras.)
When a video call is missed by the model, the system checks if there are two or more other missed calls in a row in the last 24 hours. If yes, the video call availability is disabled for the performer.
Missed call = the call ringing times out (no other cases count as a missed call, e.g. if the call was unsuccessful because the model had another ongoing call)
- When you filter Video Call those offline Models will appear on the top of the listpage who have the feature enabled in front of the other offline performers.”
Call price
- Default price is Private chat + TWA + Cam2Cam. The Model is able to set the price for the feature (1.99; 2.99; 3.99; 4.99; 5.99; 6.99; 7.99; 8.99; 9.99; 10.99; 11.99; 12.99; 13.99; 14.99). The 0.98 price is not available at all, even for promo period Models.
- Price can be changed in Browser, Model Center > Price and Privacy and can be set in Messenger App too.
- This is a Level Dependent Income, Models receive the same share as for Privates
