I have installed and configured OBS to be used only as a Virtual Camera. I have a Canon SL3 connected thru HDMI capture card to OBS. Video image is perfect in OBS, no problem. but when I start Virtual Camera so I can use it in (Edge) browser, I get msg in browser that "Camera or Mic is being used by some other process that does not not allow these devices to be read.' It seems that OBS's use of camera is persisting through to the browser. I can see OBS Virtual Camera as a choice but cannot actually choose it without msg appearing. I did actually make it work about 5 hours ago, so I know it should work, but then I restarted my computer and was not able to replicate.
Above is on MS Edge. In FF I simply get "Abort Erorr' msg.
BTW, finally no problem accessing OBS VC in Google Meets. Just not in other browser applications.
Any ideas?
