Hello.

I have installed the software and registered the dll's on a Windows 64 system.

When I launch OBS Studio the plugin appears to run (its window shows and I can click start) but no webcam appears in any software I use.

Any ideas?

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 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,

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
 
When using this I get a flickering on the output. The computer is i7 with 16GB RAM and an SSD it is not being maxed out CPU/RAM so I don't think it's load. (Also tried after a fresh boot)
 
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?

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.
