Sorry for the lately reply , Is there possibility you only register 64-bit dll ? There's still many application run on 32-bit mode and they need 32-bit dll .
You can check it by OBS itself . If you registered successfully , you would see virtual-cam shows on capture source list .
Sorry , it seems impossible . The only way might be implement a driver-layer virtual camera . But there's still many problems , especially all driver need paid certificate to install , so I am not going to do this recently.
To the dev: I found an app called Webcamoid for linux. It is a webcam toy to for webcams with ability to enable a virtual webcam. I noticed it dont work for me well, but I think if someone patched it up it will work for using it as a virtual webcam. I really desire the ability to enable a virtual webcam thru OBS but youre plugin is only windows. I was wondering if you could impliment a plugin that works like webcamoid which uses ffmpeg, and v4l2loopback. source of webcamoid: https://github.com/webcamoid/webcamoid/wiki/Virtual-camera-support
I figured I would ask since people want to stay in Linux vs windows for everything.

I'd be willing to pay $50 for this once the audio integration (microphone) is done! Any ideas what the timeframe for that next update is?
I have the latest version of Skype and OBS. Just installed both and LOVE OBS. I also just installed the Virtual Cam Plugin. But OBS is not showing as an option in Skype. I followed the instructions, went to "Tools, Logitech Brio, Start" closed the dialogue box and opened Skype.All I see there is "Logitech Brio." When I run Skype is says "camera in use by another device."
How do I get Skype to recognize the plugin?
Thanks for any help. I am not very techy. If you reply, please provide instructions fit for a 7 year old!

Stiletto,
https://go.skype.com/classic.skype
Go to this page and install the "Classic" version of Skype. Then log out of the Skype that's built in with windows and login in to this one.
Personally, I am experiencing the same blank camera issue when attempting to integrate this plugin with with a flash based browser applet. It appears this issue came up and was fixed in a prior release, but seems broken again. Possibly a new permissions issue? The virtual camera is available in the drop down list, but gives no output once selected.

OBS-Virtual-Cam:
When I put a text box in OBS Scene it appears mirrored in Google-Hang Out-Session.

How can I fix it?

Google Hangouts reverses the video that you see so that when you look at it, it looks like you're looking in a mirror. I don't know if the mirrored view is sent to viewers in Google Hangouts, but there may be an option in Hangouts to not have that behavior. Either way, this is a Hangouts issue, not an issue with the plugin.

I solved it now within OBS:
TOOLS --> VIRTUAL CAM --> mark HORIZONTAL FLIP

I am having difficulty registering the dll. Whenever I run the install or try to manually do it I get the below error on both 32bit and 64bit. Any ideas. I have run in admin mode but still same
Maybe there's a conflict with software you are using .Do you get same result with other 3rd party softwares?
Check this , you might delete some FFMPEG component which this plugin needs.
Hi catxfish
Is there a way to output in portrait resolutions? for example in 9:16 ratio.
I want to " fb live broadcast" a prerecorded video that is in portrait resolutions but when ever I try to do with VirtualCam the video is stretched laterally or have black borders to form 16:9 video again .
My output resolution in settings>video is also in 9:16
Kindly look into this.

The output resolution is decided when 3rd party software start to open virtual-camera and by following order :
1. The 3rd Party software asked resolution
2. If software not asking ,then use OBS canvas resolution
3. If OBS is not opening , use 1920x1080 resolution
So if you can't output portrait resolutions even you set the canvas ratio to 9:16 ,
It might be FB web-Interface ask for landscape resolution as default.
Could be that. Also opening OBS virtualcam as capture device in VLC would also change the resolution but in a different way.

I just watched the video and OBS did not record itself crashing at the end. It did crash though.
