Obs studio linux
#OBS STUDIO LINUX INSTALL#
I tried it and it worked! I found it relatively painless to build and install and get working. In the process, I stumbled upon a Linux plugin to enable the virtual camera device in OBS Studio. I had previously installed it and played around with it, but I hadn’t learned much about how really to use it, so I finally took the time to do that today. I spent an hour watching tutorial videos on YouTube about getting OBS Studio up and running on Linux.
#OBS STUDIO LINUX HOW TO#
That sounded great to me! When I tried to learn how to do it, unfortunately, it seemed I needed Windows or Mac OS to do it… and I have been running Pop!_OS Linux since the summer of 2018.

This means that I could create cool scenes and transitions in OBS Studio, then use them in a live video, such as a conference talk or real-time video training session. When I finally did so, I learned about a simple idea: you can create a virtual camera device the captures the output from OBS Studio, then makes that available to other applications as just another video source. Some time ago I learned about OBS Studio, but it presents a steep learning curve and it took me quite some time to find the energy to sit down and start climbing that curve. I wanted a slicker-looking live video presence than what I could achieve with Zoom 1 and its wonderful virtual background feature. You’ll also notice that the virtual camera device is now called “OBS Virtual Camera”, in case the difference in name causes a problem for you. At that point, you’re doing sudo modprobe v4l2loopback. (You’re using etckeeper, right?)Īfter rebooting, you’ll notice that when you press “Start Virtual Camera” the first time, you’ll need to enter your administrative password.
