Hi
new to OBS, this is my situation:
i need to stream a lecture.
i will have a video camera connected to a capture card (magewell usb3) that will record the teacher,
and the teacher will use his personal laptop (not the same laptop for the video feed) to display a ppt presentation.
i need to display the video feed + the ppt presentation, and i can't get the presentation in the video cam frame.
so baiscaly i need to find a way to capture the teacher's ppt.
is this possible to do using OBS?

thank you!

You can use some kind of remote viewer of the teacher's laptop. Then you can record the remote viewer program with OBS on your machine. VNC is able to provide this, or Teamviewer. The teacher has to install that software on his laptop and share his desktop for this, and for VNC you must have network connectivity to the machine of the teacher. For Teamviewer both machines must have access to the Internet to connect themselves over the Teamviewer servers. It's probably also possible to use the Windows-builtin Remote Assistance for this, but I never used this.
