Is there any way to use an IPHONE (specificlly iphone6) as a capture device in OBS. I have IRIUN Webcam running on my Linux Fedora 33 PC, and I can get the iphone recognized in Cheeze, but OBS will not recognize the IRIUN Webcam. I am using version 26 of OBS snap installation.
Thanks.

You can use SRT protocol with lariks app on the smartphone and make a stream to OBS using SRT.
https://apps.apple.com/app/larix-broadcaster/id1042474385 is link to the broadcaster app.
Other solutions is possible but this solution make it possible to transmit to your obs from remote location also.
You can even remote control OBS to turn on/off steamning/recordning with another tool - this is cool.

Thanks, but how do I configure SRT in OBS?

Thats not so easy for me to explain with my bad enlish - because it depends on your system and distribution and obs version.

One way is to install or maybe compile the SRT for you platform and use the included srt-transmit tool do wait for SRT and the let the output udp packet go out to the 127.0.0.1:1936 and on OBS you add media as udp://@:1936 with OBS 26 is should be possible to just use srt://ip:port i the media source but I use the external solution.

srt-transmit -a -s 5000 srt://:1935?passphrase=sillysecretpasword $127.0.0.1:1936

This will wait for the udp srt stream on port 1935 and output goto udp 1936.


https://github.com/Haivision/srt is the source for srt but I think more guides is on this site.
