What I've done before is use OBS to capture a potion of a screen, then start its virtual camera and use that as the camera input for whatever service I'm using.

You can set up different scenes too to switch between camera, region of screen, and whatever else you may want.
I'm a big fan of this set up too because then it doesn't matter what service you use. Whether you're in a Teams meeting with your team, Zoom with a client, Discord with friends, same set up across the board.
- ruined 4y agoiirc zoom has some features like annotation that only work over a "screenshare" as it understands them, and not on other surfaces. it's possible to go one step further with OBS, take your capture camera and open a "windowed projector" and just share that window with zoom. then you have a window with a view manipulable from within OBS but zoom understands it as a screen capture too.
- LeonenTheDK 4y agoOh interesting, had no idea Zoom was so robust. The projector bit is good to know, thanks for sharing!
