Simple connection into teleconferencing software (Zoom, GoToMeeting, Microsoft teams etc).

[Entelecheia]

My request is "Simple connection from OBS to teleconferencing software (Zoom, GotoMeeting, MS teams etc.)

I see that I can use Virtual camera to pipe the video stream output from OBS into my teleconferencing software (I use all of the above). This seems to work well.

But I have a real problem with synchronising audio and video. Because of latency in the video capture device the video is lagging 1500ms behind audio. People have suggested using AV cable to connect the audio ouput stream from OBS into the teleconferencing software. But there seems to be no way of making OBS output a delayed audio stream into AV cable. So I can't build a synchronised stream. I have searched the user manual on how to do this and can find nothing about controlling processed audio output from OBS into other software.

I am suggesting that just as you have a simple set-up to connect OBS to various streaming services, it would be great to do this with teleconferencing software. There are a lot of people trying to do teleconferences at the moment, and this would get wide usage I am sure.

We have used the NDI plugins for use with Zoom. Using the NDI Virtual Input tool you can grab the Audio/Video stream in what ever application you would like. This method also gives you the advantage of being able to separate the two systems if you want to do your compositing/switching on one and conference management on another.

This worked for us than the Virtual Output only because the NDI carried audio as well.
