Question / Help Webcam from laptop

[Veivei]

Hello everyone! Recently started streaming and I may have an odd question... Is it possible to use the webcam on my laptop and put it on the stream somehow? I use my T.V. as a monitor and I don't have a portable webcam to connect to the computer. The only webcam I have is connected to my laptop. So to clarify, is it somehow possible to use my laptops webcam and sill use the computer's stream?

Thanks!~

You will have to find a way to stream the webcam to your computer. For example you make a skype video call and add the webcam with a screen region. Or you use OBS on the laptop to stream the webcam to a local media server (red5/nginx/flashmediaserver). Then you would use the browser plugin to add this stream to OBS on the Computer.
Skype will probably be sufficient though :)
