That's...not how the VCam works. It provides a way for other *local* apps to connect to OBS's video output. If the app takes a camera, then OBS's VCam can feed it, on the same machine. No IP or WiFi, no phone app.

What are you doing?

before the last update of obs studio I connected to the phone (android) with Droidcam Obs app without problems indicating the wifi ip address in obs studio. After the update the setting in obs studio is gone, I can select obs virtual cam choose resolution but everything else is gone

Droidcam has nothing to do with VCam. Never has, probably never will.

Maybe something is labelled wrong? Screenshots would help.

And what was the "latest update" from and to? If it crosses the v27/v28 boundary in OBS, that breaks a lot of things and practically requires a complete rebuild.

Make sure you download and install the latest version of the DroidCam plugin (v2.1.0): https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/droidcam-obs-camera.1308/

The DroidCam app & plugin let you bring your phone camera into OBS studio, but these are not directly related to the virtual cam component.
I deleted everything including the directories, reinstalled everything, checked the versions ... now everything works correctly. Thank you
