2 cameras - one to stream, one for recording - at the same time

[danceteacher]

I stream dance classes on Zoom - for that I use a 2 MP webcam (BRIO Ultra HD) with audio via my computer.

I would also like to add a second camera (Droidcam OBS) to record the dance class for better quality on demand videos also using the audio via my computer.

So the BRIO webcam would be seen for people live on Zoom while the Droidcam records a version for video later.

Is this possible? Can you tell me how to do it please?

I set up a Scene with both resources: BRIO and Droidcam but it only records what's on the screen, so even if I move Droidcam to not be visible to the Zoom screen, then OBS only records the version from BRIO.

I appreciate your help!

OBS isn't really meant to be a recording multiplexer; it's a livestreaming tool.

You may be able to install the 'Source Record' plugin, and add that to the Droidcam as a Filter to record it to a separate file.
