RewardsTheater VS obs-v4l2sink

Hi everyone! Just created an open-source (GPLv3) OBS plugin that does basically what triggerfyre does, but without a server. You can just add a Media Source/VLC Video Source to your scene, and it will play it automatically when a channel point reward is redeemed. Hope this will be of use to someone.

There a temporal workaround but it's quite old and honestly I don't know if it still works on modern systems. It's basically to use this plugin https://github.com/CatxFish/obs-v4l2sink If you manage to install it it should give you the ability to choose what of your loopback devices should be the virtual cam. Good Luck!

well the easiest way I can think of is just using the OBS virtual camera thing (Unsure if they released it officially on Linux, but there is a plugin for that [1]).

Use chroma key to remove the background and add a video there, possibly on a loop.

In case the built-in filters are not sufficient or unavailable, the workaround would be to install OBS. In OBS, set up your webcam as a source, and set up a view that has all the effects that you want. Then set up a virtual webcam: if you're using Windows, using OBS Virtualcam; if you're on a Mac, using the "Start Virtual Camera" button built into OBS; and if you're on Linux, using the v4l2loopback kernel module and the obs-v4l2sink plugin. You can then configure Zoom to use this virtual webcam, which has all the extra effects that you configured.

It also links a plugin thing for linux https://github.com/CatxFish/obs-v4l2sink and mentions that something might be in development for macOS

PS: Seems the feature is now part of OBS 26.1! I have not seen it in my version. I'll look further. Thank you for your reponse!

Try using OBS studio along with something like v4l2sink.
