Issues with Nikon D5100 camera + OBS on MacOS

Hi Everyone,

I have recently downloaded OBS for Mac (Big Sur) and started playing around with my DSLR,

Just did some initial testing and noticed 2 issues that I can't seem to be able to solve (checked online tutorials and found nothing)

I'm using a USB capture card + Nikon D5100 camera,

There are two problems :

1) I can see the AF bracket constantly tracking my face (I tried turning off the autofocus to manual on my camera but the bracket is still there)
2) I can see all the settings icon during video call or recording on the sides and I don't know how to turn them off to present the image only (screen attached and apologies for the attire :D)

If anyone had the same issue or has experience with Nikon cameras and could share some feedback I would be super grateful,

Thanks !

I didn't mention one more issue,

After a few minutes the camera clicks and the output changes to colourful strips, I need to pull the viewfinder toggle to bring back the video output, not sure why that's the case

I managed to solve the issue with the turning off camera,

One final question,

I have been playing around with applying some cool LUTs to my video on OBS, can such video be then output as a webcam feed ?

Currently whatever I see in OBS with LUT or other filters is not the same as the video I see on ZOOM or Skype (this is not colour graded) I'm on a Mac btw, because I saw one video showing a similar option by going to Tools/Virtual Cam/Autostart, but this option is not available on Mac OBS,

Please help :)
