It is basically a Linux version of [obs-virtual-cam][vcam],\nbut only contains the video sink part. You can use it with\n[v4l2loopback][v4l2loopback] to achieve cross-program video transfer between OBS\nStudio and third party software supporting Video4Linux2, e.g. to present an OBS\nsession in proprietary browser-based conferencing systems by selecting the OBS\nsession as a webcam.\n\nThe idea for this plugin originated from the discussions around [obs-virtual-cam\nissue #17][vcam#17].\n\n[obs-proj]: https://obsproject.com/\n[vcam]: https://github.com/CatxFish/obs-virtual-cam\n[v4l2loopback]: https://github.com/umlaeute/v4l2loopback\n[vcam#17]: https://github.com/CatxFish/obs-virtual-cam/issues/17\n\n## Usage with v4l2loopback\n\n- Make sure to [load the v4l2loopback module][run-v4l2loopback] and check the Device Path.\n  - If using Chrome or Chromium you must use the option `exclusive_caps=1`.\n- Open OBS and select the menu entry `Tools \u003e V4L2 Video Output`.\n- Fill in the Device Path and select the appropriate video format.\n- Click the `Start` button.\n\n![Property Window](docs/property-window.png)\n\n[run-v4l2loopback]: https://github.com/umlaeute/v4l2loopback#run\n\n## Build\n\n- Install QT\n\n```\nsudo apt install qtbase5-dev\n```\n\n- Install LibObs\n\n```\nsudo apt install libobs-dev\n```\n\n- Get obs-studio source code\n\n```\ngit clone --recursive https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio.git\n```\n\n- Build plugins\n\n```\ngit clone https://github.com/CatxFish/obs-v4l2sink.git\ncd obs-v4l2sink\nmkdir build \u0026\u0026 cd build\ncmake -DLIBOBS_INCLUDE_DIR=\"../../obs-studio/libobs\" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr ..\nmake -j4\nsudo make install\n```\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2FCatxFish%2Fobs-v4l2sink","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2FCatxFish%2Fobs-v4l2sink","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2FCatxFish%2Fobs-v4l2sink/lists"}
