How To Use A Phone As A Webcam In OBS For FREE

[@StreamScheme]

Audio slipped a bit in the upload, so my lips are exactly 3 frames behind my audio, but didn't notice it until it released. Sorry about that! Figured out the issue, and it won't happen again. Have a lovely day! Happy streamin'!

[@jennifersizelove5899]

Canceled… jkjk 💜

[@ShawnRay]

I noticed this is the vdo.ninja test I did. What fix did you use?

[@eljayem]

@@ShawnRaythe delay wasn’t VDO Ninja, it was the audio timeline slipping. VDO Ninja delay is due to internet speed, it has to send the camera to the website and then to OBS. Genuinely surprised how little delay it is after all that.

[@spic3ynugz]

its because all 3 of these apps lag lmao

[@narutog98]

I wouldn't have noticed if you didn't say it, now I can't unsee it! Lol 🤣

[@clajmate69]

i love that you include the downside. most reviews don't add those. i sub instantly

[@Sh1verFN]

I just started streaming a week ago and I have wanted to get a Handcam! This video came out perfect timing!

[@StreamScheme]

Magic!

[@fromsoph]

I want to believe that I willed this video into existence by asking about this on the discord

[@chrisfellon9905]

No, that’s just how much our phones whatch us

[@Techtacula]

Amazing video Eljay! This is going to help a tonne of creators new and old. And thanks for letting help with the testing too!

[@StreamScheme]

Couldn’t have done it without you

[@Joeshcast]

I love the glitch pro. I use that one currently, I previously used dark glitch. My gaming chair is black and white though so it fits my on screen look better 🙌

[@Flaimbot]

i prefer "ip webcam" and then going the way of adding it as a browser source. no frills and it just works.

[@GEEOttv]

how you do that?

[@laylasaunders4432]

any mac users like me you can use continuity camera on your iphone there’s no delays and it doesn’t get too hot but still a little. not all iphones are supported and you can’t use two at once or leave the wifi network but for me it works perfectly and doesn’t need a download

[@Joeshcast]

I have both a Mac and a built windows pc. If I could use own3d pro on my Mac computer I totally would love to use my iPhone 14 Pro Max camera as my video overlay. But the packages I purchased via Own3d Pro keep me streaming on my built PC. The starting soon, BRB, Ending stream & Just chatting scenes are well worth using my PC.

[@ldope3904]

Damn, now I just need to know how to setup continuity cam on my iphone and mac. Does it still work with OBS like that?

[@jaquinjohnson21]

where can i find a video on how to make obs stop moving slow when i started recording

[@Jaysvictorious]

for me epoc wont work wired and only Connect wirelesly

[@rijiii_]

This was very informative and helpful. Thank you very much!

[@noobex096]

How did you say you made it horizontal? Because I turned my phone and it didn't do anything

[@FamousJyt]

i have epoccam pro and have been a user for about a yr now using it thru wifi is honestly buns just use a decent lighting cable only plus is when you leave it on auto it will automatically switch

[@StreamScheme]

Glad it works for you! I wasn’t implying that it wouldn’t work for anyone, just that it doesn’t for me and none of their documentation helps.

[@thomaskeithriehl]

Video quality is good, just having an issue switching between phone and other cam. Seems to be a 1 or 2 second delay. Is this normal? Thanks

[@gigachad4703]

Thank you!

[@Pugnaciouspie]

any app u can go to homescreen and camera will still be working, having ur phone open to that app the entire time seems difficult to do

[@victormora4601]

Does anyone else get a black screen when they copy the url link or is just me?

[@Rulatharod]

Thank you

[@riftlawyer167]

#Own3dGiveaway - would take a new overlay or some subbadges for sure. I m in dire need of those 😂

[@RegularFPSloser]

I tried connecting my Iphone 11 to my windows 10 monitor + PC/"box" through Wifi but it didn't work. I tried by connecting my computer with my Iphone though wires and it didn't work either. What am I doing wrong? Do I need a specific app to connect through wifi or a specific cord? I literally cannot continue streaming without setting this up.

[@CountryDweebin248]

So epoch doesn't go with obs right

[@b4g4b3l]

is there a method to do this via USB so i dont have to use phone on wifi or data ?

[@MalHerweynen]

use camo its free and a lot better than either of these options and you can just plug it in

[@b4g4b3l]

@@MalHerweynen its this an app called "camo" ?

[@MalHerweynen]

[@YouGotThisBro]

Dude, I've been hitting my head against the wall with tech issues for three days. You are the fucking man.

[@stoicmom375]

Thank you! Important question, please: I use the elgato facecam through obs as my cat cam; can I use the iphone with epoccam through camera hub at the same time for another use?

[@StreamScheme]

Test it and see :) otherwise use the other option I suppose. Though I’d use a phone as a cat cam, and the elgato as the other cam

[@artesy3004]

Thanks

[@Jess-vq3wh]

😭🙏you're literally bae rn.

[@ryan_ironrhinokil9020]

How do I input into my obs?

[@gamingbloxsters3786]

I myself started making videos for my KZbin channel and I have ngl found your KZbin channel and the way you explain things is very helpful . For now I just have low spec phone not as good as 300$ to 500$ dollor phones but everything have a solution so I'm making use of it . I would love to start streaming if I can have a Decent PC or if I can also show myself in me gameplay videos. Love your channel ❤🎉

[@StreamScheme]

Just glad the videos help :) hope you’re enjoying creating!

[@gamingbloxsters3786]

HELP MY CAMERA WONT FLIP TO THE SIDE WHEN I TURN MY PHONE HOW DO I FIX THIS

[@natasha4695]

My OBS wont flip between horizontal and vertical now matter how furiously i swap, tilt and setting!!

[@natasha4695]

oh. Its cus i had a rotation lock on the phone. Well then.

[@DiaGraphics]

Thank you so much, couldn't figure this out either 😅

[@LornaMoore-fz4ev]

It won't change to landscape for me

[@myck7021]

See that’s funny I could never get epoc cam pro to work wired, only would work wirelessly, I tried everyone of my chargers however I didn’t own the official apple charger.

[@TheOgresLair]

I tried Epoc Cam and epoc cam pro and on multiple occasions it would randomly disconnect my phone during my stream, leaving me with a big black box on live stating "no webcam connected" or something like that. Would not recommend that one.

[@StreamScheme]

I didn't have that issue :) But yes its dodgy sometimes as I explain.

[@Swipeyy.]

do any of these work on discord

[@MarkusWITH_a_k]

Is there a way to be wired up with obs

[@iulianabulgariu7551]

yes with elgato camera hub

[@KamiSutakku]

Spaceship Stream Overlay Template Package is the one i wanna get for the #Own3dGiveaway

[@spinnerboyz]

Why do we refresh when scene becomes active? When switching from other scenes to this one, it's quite annoying to not have it directly appear, but take a second to load. What happens if we unclick that option? I am using it without it and haven't have any problems yet. I am curious.

[@StreamScheme]

Because most people don’t have PC’s and internet good enough to have it running endlessly in the background

[@jpg334]

#Own3dGiveaway I'd be getting some overlays and or transitions I have some now but I could possibly use more

[@phazon_kiwi]

69th like, nice. That squirtle squad LED light is cool. I got gifted a Metroid one by partner, but it flickers on camera. Is this something that I need a better camera to resolve, because the anti flicker settings on my webcam don't help. A friend told me a camera where you can control the shutter speed is key. I know this is off topic, but any help would be cool. Keep up the awesome videos man!

[@StreamScheme]

I think any camera you use you need ISO, Shutterspeed, and F Stop control. It’s the triangle of exposure. The LED flickers because it’s hz are syncing with the cameras frames per second. It often happens when you’re shooting a format like PAL, but the light runs a current that is from America NTSC, or it’s just cheap manufacturing. Changing your shooting format, FPS, and lowering shutterspeed are the solutions to the flicker.

[@phazon_kiwi]

@@StreamScheme appreciate the heads up, will look at those different aspects and see if I can sort it :)

[@Bonecarpenter.]

What webcam do you use when not using your phone

[@StreamScheme]

I started with a c922 and good lighting

[@BreaddYT]

for some reason when i use my phone as a vdo ninja on obs it only picks up the sound on the phone and not my mic got any tips?

[@MrStrawberryTV]

There’s a setting on vdo ninja that lets you switch to no audio from the camera

[@ltdyson4553]

#own3dGivaway I'd go for the glitch package I like that one

[@n0x.4z]

Ds Link not working

[@jaubee]

Will this cause a lot of use in bandwidth ? Thought about doing this but I figured having my phone using wifi while I’m streaming and gaming (via ethernet) would just be another added device on the internet and my internet is already bad where I live. Anyone have issues with this? Or has it been fine

[@StreamScheme]

Yep, you’re sending the camera over the internet, so it absolutely adds to it. Hence why my shots don’t look amazing all the time, my internet wifi is fast but unstable.

[@LouiseBoyd-k2m]

[@TinoZwino]

I think you forgot the new android 14 feature that allows you to plug some phones in with a cable and use them as a webcam.

[@StreamScheme]

Nah, just trying to cover tools that anyone can use or the most focused on streaming. VDO ninja anyone can use, Epoccam is focused.

[@pojoh2585]

Hi and thanks for this video. Personally I use prism lens, for me it has less lag than VDO ninja. In your description box, you talk about white balance. Did you explained how to correct it on OBS please ? I didn't found the answer or didn't understand. 🧐 (My english is not perfect)

[@eljayem]

You don’t correct white balance in OBS :) you set it on the camera and lights, only adjust in OBS IF it’s adjusting the camera settings and not just editing the image.

Two apps, one is a web browser app that doesn’t need to be connected. The other is the elgato tool which can be either but many can’t get working wirelessly.

Better off having a PC with OBS installed, and then you can run your console THROUGH a capture card to the PC into OBS, and stream off the PC. Console streamers can’t do much without that set up.
