How to create multiple virtual cameras for an app in development?
I have tested OBS's Virtual Camera feature, but it only provides a single virtual camera from what I've tried. I also tested a piece of software called Webcamoid. It was easy to use, but I couldn't get the MediaStream object from it using Tauri on MacOS for some reason, even though it worked when I opened the test app in Chrome instead. I am not sure it would enable multiple instances either.
- Shout out to webcamoid - a tool that finally allows to take full advantage of modern webcams

Webcam issues
That did not seem to do anything with Cheese, however it lead me down a rabbithole to https://webcamoid.github.io/ with links to virtual camera drivers for "akvcam" and "v4l2loopback" which solved the issue within browser. I installed both, not sure which one was needed.

How to edit frames from camera input and output them into meeting app?
The parent it seems you’re missing right now is the virtual cam. This is the repo that the OP linked. There’s another package too, pyvirtualcam. Both require you to install the actual virtual camera binary to your computer where the package simply routes your edited frames to the camera.

A library for python virtual microphone input
Just like we have pyfakecam do we have a similar library for real-time audio? Actually, I need to manipulate the audio input from the microphone and send it to the webrtc in form of microphone input. pyfakecam works seamlessly with opencv and I can easily manipulate live camera input and create a virtual camera for it. But same is not possible for audio input.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing webcamoid and pyvirtualcam you can also consider the following projects:
akvcam - akvcam, virtual camera for Linux
v4l2loopback - v4l2-loopback device
