Bug Description

Using Skype 4.2.0.11 - my webcam (an old MS webcam) has been working fine, but in the last few weeks, Skype has started showing just a black screen for both my video output, and the video output of my Skyping partner (see attached image).

The webcam is working fine, and the other Skypist can see and hear me fine - it's just the video display in Skype that is the problem.
