What is OBS Virtual Camera

In video conference software like Skype, Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, or Facebook Messenger Rooms, you can find a video source option named “OBS Virtual Camera” in the settings. And you may wonder what it is and how to use the virtual camera in the IM software.

In a nutshell, OBS virtual camera lets you use a media resource (video file, screenshot, App, game, etc.) as the camera output to Skype, Zoom, Teams, Meet, or more IM Video calls. Your conference partner will see the video source you just set instead of your face from the webcam.

An OBS virtual camera is very useful if you want to:

  • Not to show your face on the real webcam;
  • Do an online business presentation to your customers or co-workers;
  • Watch a movie with your best friends in the video call;
  • Have an online class with your student;
  • Give a demonstration by a real-time screen capture;
  • Have fun with your friends online during the COVID-19;

This article will show you how to use this powerful tool to satisfy your business partner, fulfill your tasks at home, and share your happiness in your video call.

Before you Start

You need to install the following software (all free) to get started. Some of the tools in the list are not mandatory but will give you a better experience in expanding the choices of your video sources:

  • OBS Studio. OBS studio is required for the “OBS virtual camera” option in your IM (or video conference) software. In addition, if you want to use the “OBS-camera” option, you need to download another App called Streamlabs OBS or SLOBS.
  • NDI Tools. If you need a free solution to capture another computer’s screen, you will have to install NDI tools on your computer.
  • OBS-NDI plugin. You need to install it to get the NDI signal in OBS.
  • VLC Media Player. Useful for multiple video playing.

(2022 Update: you don’t need to install a virtual camera plugin for OBS, as it is natively supported in the software.)
