Webcam Utility broken with MacOS 15 Sequoia

[andystalick]

The utility can't connect to the camera, and the fix on MacOS14 Sonoma to set

system-override legacy-camera-plugins-without-sw-camera-indication=on

doesn't work.

MacOS 15 has been available to developers for months now, why is this still broken at release time?

Hello,

I have EOS 200D and Macbook Pro M3 model - OS Sequoia - 15. EOS webcam utility EOSWebcamUtility-MAC1.3.16 is not working any more even with - system-override legacy-camera-plugins-without-sw-camera-indication=on

Can anyone tell if we will get a fix for this, if yes. then anywhere to track the progress on this? 

I am really blocked with this issue and cannot go back to

@Stephen, while your team is working on a fix, is there a workaround ?

After upgrading to macOS 15 Sequoia on a M3 using EOSWebcamUtility v1.3.16, the webcam stopped working, even after enabling legacy-camera-plugins — However, with Sonoma 14.7 on a Mac M1, it works! Any updates on this.

Finally, today I was able to get the camera working. Canon has released a version for the macOS Sequoia; here are the links.

MAC USERS: Camera connectivity for macOS Sequoia is now available. Please use the below download link, “Download for MacOS Sequoia” to download the latest version. For macOS users on Sonoma or earlier, please use the “Download for Mac” button above. If you are unsure of your current OS, navigate to the Apple icon in the top left of your screen and click, “About This Mac”.

The problem is that our application (madmapper.com), which is used by thousands Mac users and links to EDSDK is not starting up on Sequoia. We had to make an urgent release to stop using the SDK on Sequoia. So sequoia users can't use features related to Canon. I hope you'll do something soon, indeed it doesn't look professional

If your issue is related to the EOS Webcam Utility, it was updated several weeks ago. You can get the current version at https://canon.us/livestream 

If you're referring to the SDK, you'll need to visit the Developer Community at https://canon.us/developercommunity
