OBS virtual camera not starting #4901
Comments
Are you trying to run the Virtual Camera from multiple instances at the same time? |
No, I had an OBS instance running before but closed it, but the virtual camera wasn't working in that previous instance either |
I don't know if it's related, but on latest PopOS (21.04) w/ But if I do |
Now I do see the camera on other applications, but no frames are shown (only a black screen) |
on version |
This is a duplicate of #4808 |
Edit to add details about umlaeute/v4l2loopback#485 For Ubuntu users, I've made a PPA containing builds of 🩹 umlaeute/v4l2loopback#477 The patch above fixes the ability to start/stop the Virtual Camera in OBS many times. It *"works for me"*™ The PPA is here: 📦 https://launchpad.net/~flexiondotorg/+archive/ubuntu/v4l2loopback Feedback welcome. If this fix works widely, I'll work towards landing in the official packages for Ubuntu. |
Closing as duplicate, thanks. |
