It might not only be a gate into IP camera, instead it might be a device that splits exclusive use type video camera device between applications, or something that adds an overlay onto captured image. And this is why all virtual devices were left overboard. And Skype started вЂ“ supposedly вЂ“ skipping devices without it. And it does not exist in virtual devices, and you cannot use it to distinguish between them. Unfortunately, DevicePath is not a mandatory property. The documentation is unfortunately confusing in this part and perhaps developers thought they were doing the right thing, nevertheless multiple discussions online suggest a different approach. You can use this property to distinguish between two or more instances of the same model of device. The вЂњDevicePathвЂќ property is not a human-readable string, but is guaranteed to be unique for each video capture device on the system. Skype guys decided that if a video device does not have a DevicePath property then it is not good enough for them. Presumably, there was a good reason to touch the video capture code and from moderately terrible it started being even worse. New Skype still uses DirectShow as API to interface capture devices and to discover such it enumerates them the way all decent applications do: Enumerating Devices and Filters. Since quite some people are interested in details ( Skype 6 Virtual Camera issues, Skype Client for Windows вЂ“ SCW-3881 вЂ“ Virtual cameras no longer work with Skype 6), here goes a bit of relevant information on the problem.

Just oops, nothing works any longer if only it is not a full driver exposing virtual device through WDM. As mentioned before, new Skype 6 broke compatibility with all virtual DirectShow devices out there.
