Hi

Spoutcam works well as a video capture device in obs and shows the spout2 plugin output from obs properly. However, when I use it in zoom or chrome (google meet) it shows static noise.

What am I doing wrong ?

Thanks for your support!

This has been a problem for some time and is unresolved.

If you can get a Spout input into OBS, try the [OBS virtual camera](https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/obs-virtualcam.1744/)
