Question / Help Setup for Mac Lumix Camera & Audio

[johanhorak]

Hi
I have a novice question. So be patient as I don't know where to start.

I want to do screen recording videos but want to record my face with a lumix fz80 camera and have a meteor microphone to record my voice.

I will be looking for how to set this up in the software later.

For now I want to know how to connect the camera as webcam to my macbook Air so that it will be seen as a source in the software.

As well as how to connect my meteor microphone. I have the correct cable. Would I need software TO get the mic to communicate with OBS?

Regards Johan Horak

I have an adapter going from my mac to hdmi. Now I need an hdmi to micro hdmi to connect with the camera.

Problem: will the video play on the mac while using OBS?

BTW. I have an Samsung S20 and it will be a lot easier to use as a webcam if the camera setup does not work.

What type of adapter do you have? You need an encoder, not just something that gives you an HDMI output from your Mac.
