Download

Download DroidVideo-0.3.1-Android.apk to your phone and DroidVideo-0.3.1-Windows.exe to your PC. The EXE includes ADB, the OBS plug-in and Windows virtual camera. No extra component download is needed.

Updating the OBS plug-in

  1. Close OBS completely.
  2. Open the new Windows EXE.
  3. Click Setup → Install OBS plug-in and accept the Windows permission prompt.
  4. Reopen OBS and use DroidVideo Camera + Audio.

Updating the EXE alone does not replace the plug-in already installed in OBS.

Fixes

  • Replaced blocking OBS pipe reads with a bounded local transport that can stop when no video arrives.
  • Reduced buffering, enabled hardware decoding where available, and shared a single video decoder across DroidVideo sources in the same OBS process.
  • Audio-setting changes keep the video decoder running.
  • Enabling an already installed compatible virtual camera no longer overwrites a DLL held open by OBS or another camera app. New camera installations use versioned paths.
  • Added an English project website and clearer setup instructions.

Checks and limits

Android build/lint, 17 desktop tests, native camera checks, isolated libobs source lifecycle checks, and synthetic 1080p60/4K30 loopback video with AAC passed. The final package was checked for bundled components, matching source and icons. Real-phone latency and sustained OBS stability still need device testing; packaged startup and elevated installation have not been verified in this test run.

The Windows EXE is unsigned, so Windows may still show a security warning. Android uses the existing development signature. Windows virtual camera carries video only; phone audio is available through the OBS plug-in.
