Virtual webcam – play a video in e.g. Zoom

• xupybd 6y ago
  Can't you just share the screen in zoom or Skype?

    Yes, you can share your screen in zoom and skype. At first, I wanted just to play "a funny" video over the webcam (instead of my face), for my colleagues. And sharing the desktop over the webcam was just a "nice to have" feature, in the case, the application does not support screen sharing.

    Screen share in Zoom normally takes up a lot of space and is annoying in my opinion if it isn’t by someone leading a meeting. It isn’t naturally via your webcam.

  This reminds me of using OBS to make entirely custom virtual cameras and when Shopify's CEO offered $10k for feature support. https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/issues/2568 https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/issues/2568
