@@tresmensajesprofeticos2143 I'm stumped! If you've properly set up your camera in OBS and then start the OBS Virtual Camera, then when you select the OBS Virtual Camera as your camera in Zoom, any recording you do in Zoom should record exactly what is being displayed. Similarly, if you're setting everything up in OBS and then recording from within OBS, it should still record everything exactly as it displays in OBS. Do you think it is possible that you've selected your actual webcam in Zoom rather than selecting the Virtual Camera?

Hi Billy! Great video. So clear and simply explained. One question: Is Zoom required? I am wondering if we can use the camera without an intermediary videoconference software (since we'll be recording only -- not streaming) Thanks!

Thanks for watching! That's a great question, and I'm happy to tell you that you can actually record through OBS. If you look on the right hand side of the OBS main screen, just below "Start Streaming" and just above "Start Virtual Camera" is a button for "Start Recording." Just hit that button and you'll record your OBS output! Good luck! Let me know if you need anything else.

Super-helpful and easy to follow, Billy - excellent presentation. You're clearly a seasoned presenter! I'd just like come clarification around the final process. Unless I missed it, I can't quite figure out the final setup steps to be done to show this presentation in a Teams or Zoom meeting. I assume I pick the OBS virtual camera as the Teams camera input, which will have my PPT presentation in the background and do they just watch that (like what they would see if I was showing my normal camera image? For advancing the slides, I guess I just go across to the window that the PPT presentation was set up in and then click away there, yes? But if there are multiple people on the meeting with their cameras, my camera image will be tiled with theirs. Do we need to ask them to set the focus to my image? Sorry, I'm a bit lost on that end part. Thanks!

Hi, Brett! Thanks for watching! Prior to firing up Zoom or Teams, you'll tell OBS to "Start Virtual Camera," then, when you start Zoom/Teams, you'll select the OBS Virtual Camera as the camera to use. For the second question you have, there are two ways to tackle the problem. First, if you have two monitors, you can simply run your OBS on one monitor and run the Zoom/Teams window on the other monitor; that way, you'll have one full screen where you can see yourself and your presentation behind you. The other method is what you mentioned--have the admin of the Zoom/Teams call make sure that you are "spotlighted" so that your image takes up the entire screen. I hope this answers your question! If not, please let me know. Good luck!

Thanks for the kind words, and thanks for watching! Check out the settings for your "Chroma Key" effect and try moving the sliders a bit. Start with the "opacity" slider, and also try the "similarity" silder. The opacity slider controls how opaque the image is as it appears over the PowerPoint presentation; the similarity slider controls how much green (from the green screen and other objects) is replaced with the PowerPoint. If moving the sliders doesn't sharpen your image, try getting more light onto your green screen. A well-lit green screen is essential to a good Chroma Key. If necessary, direct extra lights directly onto your green screen (out of the shot) to make it brighter, and see if that works! Good luck!

@letslearnusefulstuff
Жыл бұрын
While in OBS, go to the properties for your camera (right click on the camera in the "Sources" section and select "Properties" from the context menu). In the drop down next to "Resolution/FPS Type," select "Custom" and then in the drop down next to "Resolution" select a resolution such as 2048x1536, 1600x1200, 1280x960 and 800x600. Those resolutions are all 4:3 aspect ratios and generally show up as "square" versus resolutions such as 3480x2160, 2560x1440, 1920x1080 which are 16:9 resolutions and appear as a rectangle. Let me know if this helps!

Thanks Billy! One question: I see that the quality degrades. When I see the Zoom recording (I am doing testing only yet), the letters in the ppt presentation seem a little blur, or the color or lines a little chompy or not so smooth. I changed in Settings, OUPUT : Encoder Preset "FAST" for better quality and I saw some improvement. Is there anything else I can do so the powerpoint presentation is viewed with better quality? thanks!
@letslearnusefulstuff
Жыл бұрын
Hi Esmeralda! This is a great question. Generally speaking, the image quality is a function of: 1) the ability of your computer to encode the streams (i.e. how powerful it is) and, 2) the connection speed to the internet (how fast the connection is). I haven't run into image quality problems myself. I'd recommend giving it a try on a more powerful PC/laptop and confirming that your connection speed is adequate. Good luck!!!

Great question! At the lower right-hand corner of OBS you'll see a button that reads "Start Virtual Camera." When you click that button, your computer will see a new "camera" as if you've actually plugged one in (in reality this is a "virtual" camera because you haven't plugged one in to the computer, you've just created one using OBS software). Once you have OBS configured and you're ready to go, click "Start Virtual Camera" and then head over to Zoom. In the Zoom settings, you'll be able to select your camera from a drop-down menu. Using that menu, select the OBS Virtual Camera. Now whatever is on OBS will be broadcast over Zoom. Thanks very much for asking this question. I realize now that I forgot to add this information in my video. I'm going to add it to the "about" information for this video. If you're still having trouble, let me know and I'll make a new video that covers this!
