# Mon2Cam
Fix for multi-monitor Discord screensharing
## Dependencies:
- [Deno]
- [xrandr] (X11)
- [ffmpeg] (X11) or [wf-recorder] (wlroots)
- [v4l2loopback] 0.12+
Note:
Ubuntu 18.04 and below does not provide v4l2loopback 0.12, if you use older versions of Ubuntu you will need to [compile from source](https://github.com/umlaeute/v4l2loopback#install)
## Instructions:
- Install [Deno] ***DO NOT USE UBUNTU SNAP***
- Run `curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ShayBox/Mon2Cam/master/install.sh | sh`
- Open a new terminal and type `mon2cam`
- Switch discord webcam
You can also use the [AUR] package which is a deno bundle and a desktop file
```

## Audio routing
There is audio routing built into Mon2Cam, which you can use with the -s flag. It's interactive, so it's not hard to use, but keep in mind that it may still have bugs. Also, it probably introduces some latency, however this wasn't tested and is probably quite tiny. (I haven't noticed any difference.)
Mon2Cam will try to detect if discord is trying to record, and then switch it's input to the Mon2Cam combined sink, but you may have to do it manually. You should also disable echo cancellation, because discord will detect most audio as echo.
