In Google Meeting, there is a settings button. Right click and pick the input source as my laptop. Finally noticed in the Window system tray there is a NDI entry now. To feed that into Google Meeting, I started up on Windows "NDI Virtual Input".You can use the NDI Studio Monitor to just checking it is streaming.(You need to install NDI Tools before starting CH for this to appear I think.) In "Stream" mode, CH can be configured for Preferences / Live Output - turn on Mercury Output and select NDI Output.I installed NDI tools on my Windows laptop where I have CH running.I tried a few things, failed, upgraded everything to the latest versions (NDI Tools 4.5, latest CH etc).Well, got it going both ways! No YouTube video from me, but a few pointers if you have a go before Daniel creates an up to date video: But I have not tried it yet.Īnyone actually done it? I have done it with Streaming to YouTube, but that is streaming via OBS (not using a virtual webcam). OBS is more for streaming, but I *think* OBS-VirtualWebcam allows the output to be sent to a "virtual webcam" which you can then use Zoom use as the video source. I have not tried on Windows recently though, but my reading is it *should* be possible. I was going to use NDI to stream a video signal from my Windows laptop to my Mac to balance the CPU across machines. (This does not mean its not possible!!) I think Windows does support virtual cameras, just Mac OS does not (any more). So I could not work out a way to get any virtual camera going into Google Meet/Hangouts. But it looks like on the latest Mac OS they closed some "loop holes" in security, and some of the virtual camera packages stopped working. I am not a Zoom expert, but my limited playing with Google Hangouts/Meet is that software can pick things up from a camera or a captured screenshot (using "present" mode).
