      This is how you make a troubleshooting video that pisses a person off because 80% of it is "in this video we're going to blah blah blah" filler. He spent more time telling us that he was _going_ to tell us something than he did actually telling us the information. This video could've been 30 seconds long.

    The very first problem solved my problem! You are the only or at least one of the only people to address this issue.
    One of the best things about this video you didn't talk just to hear yourself talk, like SOOOO many people do. People just want an answer to their problems.
    Ex: I clicked on a video last night for the same problem and the girl felt the need to tell everyone why her hair looked wet...I didn't notice until she said something, what's more, I didn't care!!!
    Thank you for getting to the point!

    Hi markus, I had a specific problem with the EOS webcam utility where it wouldn't let me use "configure video" in OBS. I have plugged the camera in through a capture card and I am able to use "configure video" (through HDMI, not USB connection) but this button does not work with the USB connection running webcam utility. Any Ideas as to why?

    •  3 роки тому +1

      That button doesn't work for me either. Maybe because there's nothing to configure.

    Question about the black screen.
    I got the Canon M50 Mark 2 camera just last Thursday and use it today for my church UA-cam live stream. The lens is remove and I use OBS. It was working fine but couple minutes later, the black screen show up and I don't know how to fix the issue. I know the lens is remove and is there a way to fix the black screen so I don't always have to press the top button on the camera to make the video show again???

    Hi Markus, fantastic video! Quick question...
    I've been trying to no avail to get my EOS Canon 5D Mark ii to work with zoom on my Mac mini (2020-M1) computer (Big Sur 11.4) -- do you have any suggestions or am I just out of luck?
    - I've updated the firmware on the camera...
    - installed the latest 5D Mark ii Utility on my Mac...
    - and because there is no Web-camera utility for the Mark ii, I've attempted to use a 6D Mark ii version...
    - I also made sure to reboot my computer AND close out the Utility software (and my lens cap isn't on haha)...
    Do you have any advice? Thanks!!!!!

    •  3 роки тому

      From what I can see at www.usa.canon.com/internet/portal/us/home/support/self-help-center/eos-webcam-utility, the 5D Mark II is supported. But I've never used the setup on a Mac.

    Great video, thank you for breaking this down to such an easy level of understanding. I used it to troubleshoot but I'm still getting the same issue where the camera is showing the computer icon on the camera and the "EOS webcam Utility" even after I've shut down the EOS Utility software, deacvitated it from starting in the start up processes and restarted the pc (Windows). Any ideas on why I'm still getting this error. I also checked and updated drivers on software and camera.

    Before I found this video, I followed some other youtube channel's advice and bought a ton of accessories on amazon - like video capture card and a HDMI to micro HDMI cable to plug my EOS M50 into the capture card. It is so frustrating because Canon even markets a "Content Creator" package with accessories like the mentioned HDMI cables BUT NO micro USB cable. So Canon itself made me confused on this one because they did not recommend the micro USB solution themselves anywhere.
    I tried to make things work for an hour, but when nothing helped me, I started looking for a solution. Then I found your video and learned, that all I needed was a micro USB cable. (which I do not have at home because I switched to USB-C a long time ago)
    So I got myself a micro USB to USB 3.0 cable and it works like a dream. Thank you for this video!

    Markus, one thing I heard and it's true is that there is a slight delay between voice and image when we use a different camera as a webcam. I would love to know if you have any tips about that. Thank you!

    •  3 роки тому

      That has not been my experience so far. But that probably depends on the software you're using.

    Having issues with a Nikon D5500, Ive got it running but theres a big black box around the entire image (oddly an earlier test I swear did not have this same box, the only thing thats changed since is my monitor). Ive had that lag issue but it seemed to not like the usb port it was in, once I changed it, it stopped. The LCD doesnt display anything. No preview. Not required but nice if I was looking away from my monitor preview. And once it was all fine (I had cropped the black box using OBS) but after about 10 minutes it just froze, seemed to still be powered it didnt boot to the nikon webcam utility screen, just a still image of me with stayed like that until unplugged an hour later. Is it just too old a DSLR to be used as an effective webcam. I would love some help cause obviously would save me either updating my camera or buying a specific webcam for streaming when all the little things Ive already picked up have amounted to so much.

      That's actually how it's designed. There's no audio transmitted over the USB connection. Over the HDMI connection there is audio. But that requires a capture card (amzn.to/3wKqLwO) and autofocus isn't usable.
