OBS to Zoom/Teams/Webex Screen share for meetings not streams

Hello everyone. Trying to see if it is possible to improve my "powerpoint" presentations using some overlays and having my video feed on top of the powerpoint slides (think picture in picture). So far everything is going fine on the OBS side. I've created my scenes, but I am getting stuck on how to send this over to Zoom/Teams/etc and have it be full screen for everyone.

1. If I use the virtual camera, then when I use the PIP scene, it will be tiny due to all of the other participants in the room.

2. If I go fullscreen in OBS and screenshare that in Zoom, then you will see my camera in the top boxes with everyone else, along with another box of me on the PIP screen.

Is there a good way to do this? Most of the information on the web is for streamers and that would be fine in this case, but I am presenting to others in a room who also have audio/video instead of a stream being a "one to many" solution.

In Zoom when you share, click the second tab "advanced" and then click on "Content from 2nd camera".

The word "second" does not make too much sense here. I have a total of 5, so what the hell.

Anyway: what the button does is it shares the content of a real or virtual camera. You'll then have to manually enumerate through them until you share the OBS virtual camera. (That means: you cannot pre-select the one you want when you start sharing). So just keep selecting the next one by clicking the button that appears on the upper left corner of the sharing window until you share your virtual OBS camera.

PM me if you still have issues.
