Question / Help HOW TO USE THE SAME WEBCAM ON TWO OBS AT THE SAME TIME?

[Diego Alves]

As we know, is possible to open more than one OBS at the same time. The problem is that the second OBS opened don't show the webcam. I ask, there is any possible to make the second OBS opened show the same webcam that the first OBS opened?

I am trying to stream at facebook and youtube at the same time for free. Can anyone help me?

Webcam on the same USB controller ?
Always connect to different controller on mobo, read manual or buy USB expansion card.

A single webcam can only be used by 1 application at a time.

There is way to get 1 webcam on both OBS by forwarding it using the NDI plugin. 1 OBS opens the webcam and forwards it via the NDI filter to the other OBS using the NDI source.
