Not exactly since the NDI solution works on Windows as well. It's just the USB connection that does not work on Windows and I did not know that at the time of recording the video.

Whenever I plug my IPhone into the USB port on my computer it doesn’t show up in the digital capture device, devices area. Is this because I have a windows computer or am I doing something wrong
Hello ChickenNougat, I do not use windows and can't test this at this time but I have learned through other comments under this video that it apparently does not work on Windows machines the same way as it does on macOS. That said, I nowadays would recommend to use a HDMI capture card and Lightning to HDMI adapter: ua-cam.com/video/zJcA9XNEeWs/v-deo.html
Thanks for this info! I will download and try the USB-cable solution. Hope it wont lag too much. Recording drums to music so I need quick response and sync. :)
I already connected my iphone to my macbook, and the obs showed the ‘ipad pro’ choice, but when I clicked it for video capture device, the ipad pro screen doesnt appear. How can I fix this?
@@yolanlimmm I have not tested this way of connecting with the iPad (only with the iPhone). But generally speaking, you can just get a USB-C to HDMI adapter for the iPad and then a HDMI Capture Card for the MacBook. That way is more reliable and also transfers audio to OBS Studio.
Great video! I’ve done the first method of connecting iphone w lightning cable and works great…super stable. What is problematic however is when i try to connect the iphone and the ipad for more video capture devices inside OBS…always crashes. I could go the NDI route if necessary for ipad and cable the iphone but wondering if you’ve tried connecting 2 devices and to what degree of success. Thanks!
Hello Nick, I have not tried to do this with two devices at the same time. However, if you are looking to do this more reliably, maybe look into the alternative of using an HDMI adapter and capture card (or HDMI switcher). That will give you a more reliable signal with audio and video features: ua-cam.com/video/zJcA9XNEeWs/v-deo.html
Hi Chris! Thank you so much for this video! Quick question, what should I do to auto transform from vertical to horizontal view and vice versa in OBS when I rotate my phone (NDI hx camera)? I selected 'Fit to screen' but doesn't work. Thanks!
I just tested it again: the NDI|HX Capture (for display recording) auto rotates. The NDI|HX Camera (for use of the camera in OBS) does not auto rotate and is locked in horizontal mode. There the easiest would probably be to make two scenes and manually rotate the NDI Source in them. However, there is an alternative to NDI|HX Camera which is called OBS.Camera - this app features NDI and USB based video transmission of the iPhone camera and it also has way more features than NDI|HX Camera. One of them being: it auto rotates. Which can also be annoying if you actually don't want it to do that 🙈. So that's my thoughts on the matter. Happy streaming.
@@ChrisSpiegl Thank you for your response! I already installed the NDI hx capture on my phone and able to broadcast in OBS. However, the auto-rotate doesn't work for me. Is the 'Fit to screen' is the only setting that needs to be set? Thanks!
Hi, I have since found out that when using the USB Lighting connection it does not send audio. However, the NDI system does support audio. Also, please check the option with an HDMI adapter and capture card. It definitely works the best.
1st of all, I was trying to link my iPad with windows lappy through cable, but it was getting access to its file, but not reading in OBS. And another one, that NDI HX is very costly app, so, still the problem pertains…
No, from all the comments I have gotten about this, the wired solution with a USB cable does NOT work on Windows. But, it's cheap to get an Lighting to HDMI and then a HDMI Capture card for like 15$. That's the most reliable solution which provides audio and video.

Hi Chris, was wondering if you'd be able to help me out. I have an iphone & ipad which I am using for my games. I have a Windows laptop and I have the Elgato Cam Link. I have OBS installed on my laptop. I connect my iphone/ipad using a hdmi/av display adapter with a hdmi cable to the Elgato Cam Link and into the laptop. When I use the Game Device Capture in OBS, and select Cam Link, I am able to have my iphone/ipad screen display onto OBS and also have the game audio in there as well. However, this does not allow me to connect my headphones to my iphone/ipad. If i connect my headphones to my iphone/ipad I immediately lose the audio of the game on the OBS on my laptop and am left with just the game video input. The only way to have the audio again would be to disconnect my headphones. Appreciate any ideas you may have. Thanks. Cheers.
I'd try to setup monitoring via the Laptop in OBS and see if that is fast enough for you and does not add too much of a latency. Alternative, there are capture cards which also provide a headphone jack. Not sure if that would be a possible alternative.

There are apps for Smart TV devices which can make them compatible with AirPlay. AirScreen is one of those apps (at least on FireTV). Not sure if it works on Samsung TV as I have not tested that.
Hello! Help please. I downloaded the app, installed the plugin to OBS and started screen mirroring. But when I check the recorded the video, the sound was entirely crackling. It's impossible to use the video in any way. How do I fix this? Thank you.

I can't hear ma gameplay sound while plugin my headphone in to my iphone. I can only hear when my headphone is plugin into desktop. How to fix that any solution????

Personally, I would get a HDMI Adapter and then a HDMI capture card to have the best possible solution. Probably ideal would be a HDMI capture card which has a headphone out port (if your gameplay requires real time reactions).
Did you have to download a plug-in or anything to do this? I notice even when adding a device you have an iOS Camera option available that I don’t see on mine. Even plugged in and unlocked my iPhone does not appear as an option to add as a device and anything I read online leads me to the OBS camera app for $25.
The best way I have found that also supports capturing audio without needing any additional devices is with the NDI|HX Capture app which works with the shown NDI plugins and OBS.
Ok. I just bought a MacBook Air and I’m using OBS to try and record my iPad Air. Took forever for OBS to see my iPad but it’s not capturing the sound. I attempted to add an audio capture device but my iPad isn’t there. Any thoughts?

Then again, if you are just trying to record the iPad screen, why not use the iOS Screen Recording feature itself? (this of course only applies if you are not trying to add anything / stream it etc.)
You can use the wireless solution (NDI HX Capture) with Windows as well. And the USB solution works only for mac, that is correct… however… I would not even know that if it wouldn't be for the comments here since I am a macOS only user.
Should work there as well if you are on macOS. But tbh I have not used this method in a while so not sure if it still works with current iOS / macOS versions.

Don’t know since I do not use windows at all. But from comments it says it may be tricky. I would recommend using a HDMI adapter & capture card (as described in a video linked in the description of this video here).
The Lightning to USB connection does not work with Windows (as mentioned in the Description and many comments). I recommend the HDMI adapter + Capture card method as the most reliable: ua-cam.com/video/zJcA9XNEeWs/v-deo.html
Hi, I don’t use windows so I don’t know really. Nowadays I am recommending the use of a hdmi adapter and cheap capture card to capture your iPhone screen. Much more reliable: ua-cam.com/video/zJcA9XNEeWs/v-deo.html
Best quality and reliability will be achieved with an USB-C dock which provides power and an HDMI out port. Then you can use a HDMI Capture Card. Link to the is in the description.
I have an iPhone 13, my phone is plugged in my PC and I can't find my iphone in the video capture device in OBS , do any of you know why ?! Please this is urgent!
So I got the iphone hdmi dongle and connected that to the hdmi port on the computer to use as a capture device in obs and I also downloaded the obs cam app and add on to the desktop version and it still doesn't pop up in the iOS cam or as a video capture device is there something I am missing?
The HDMI port on your computer is only a output. You need a HDMI to USB capture card to get the signal from your iPhone HDMI adapter. I talk about this in this video: ua-cam.com/video/zJcA9XNEeWs/v-deo.html
The NDI solution should be available for Windows as well. The OBS plug-in is there and the Runtime as well. But as das as I know the USB to Lightning connection does not work the same way.
i need HELP! Does the video capture device thing only work with mac? bc i don't have one... And I wanna do it by cable and video capture but when i connect it and want to select it in obs it dosn't show my ipad in devicec (nor does it show my phone (tried that too)) so i can't select it but why? And i wanna do it with a cable bc before i used lets view and i have no problem with the app but my internetconnection makes it so that the screen mirroring randomly stops and i gotta connect my ipad with the laptop again.... and this happens way to often :/
Hi, the lightning cable method only works with macOS and it does not support audio transmission. The best way you can do and the safest is to use a HDMI adapter and HDMI capture card as shown in the video linked in the description as a better solution.
Are you on windows or mac? Are you using the wired or the wireless option? Please provide more details otherwise it's impossible to help you with this.
@@VincentWongHugeBoy First up, I don't use windows so I don't know how things work there. I would assume that the Wireless option works just the same as it is NDI based and the OBS NDI Plugin is available for windows as well. With the wired option I have heard (not tested) that it either does not work at all or works when you install the iTunes program and somehow that may bring it to working? I am not sure though. I would most likely just go for the wireless option and plug the phone in to a charger to be safe on that one.
hi, the wired way was actually working for a while but not sure what happen out of sudden it just dont' show my iphone screen, even when it detected the iphone. What could have gone wrong? I notice it happened after i did once to share screen via airpot to my external monitor. pls help
When I was making this video I think to remember that that came up at some point. It may be because of those messages that sometimes come up and ask if you'd like to authorize the use of the external attachment or something like that. Maybe restarting the laptop would work, or even the iPhone if nothing else.
@@ChrisSpiegl will this video wired connection work with Window 10? since i just want to try doing some youtube and not buying capture card or anything first
Not sure what may be happening for you there. Personally, I can only say that I am now using a HDMI Capture card + a Lightning to HDMI adapter. This is much more reliable and has less delay/lag than when using the NDI + Wireless solution.
Two reasons: 1) you may be using Windows and this only works for macOS. 2) the iPhone asks for permission to connect to your laptop and if you don't give it, this does not work.
@@ChrisSpiegl prolly because im using windows. so do i have to use the hdmi adaptor if i want to connect obs to my iphone and do game livestream? or it will just doesnt work since im on windows? thanks for your replies btw
@@idksowhtevr2538 I would recommend going with the Lightning => HDMI => HDMI Cable => HDMI Capture card. This is going to be the most reliable solution which also transmits sound.
@@idksowhtevr2538 For that you would have to use a headphone jack and basically route the audio like you would with any mic connected to your computer. Not really easier… if you ask em.
That is very possible, I don't have a windows machine and don't have any knowledge of this feature being something that works there. Maybe there are different solutions (like NDI Capture app) but yea… guess that's a Apple only thing for now.
@@crashofmodsold9030 that’s no special cable. It’s just a braided Lightning to usb cable. You can get those on Amazon. I don’t have the link handy at the moment though.

I have used the app a few times - as you may have guessed by the video. The NDI app works pretty well. However, if you can use a solution with a cable, I would prefer to go the route of HDMI and a USB Capture card as I demonstrated in this video: ua-cam.com/video/zJcA9XNEeWs/v-deo.html Slightly higher cost but much more reliable.
Don't know what your setup looks like or which method you are using to connect to your computer. Without that info it's almost impossible to help you there.
PS: I have been trying to find out how to record a video just like you have i.e screen sharing my iPad screen and recording my face using an android mobile phone camera and trying to merge them, but haven’t been successful in finding out. Could you please help?
In this specific video I just filmed multiple different perspectives (camera + screen recording) and then combined them with Premiere Pro. However, nowadays I am actually using the ATEM Mini to do most of this without doing any editing and still being able to switch between multiple camera perspectives, displays, and even iPhone or iPad screens.

The USB method does not work on windows and it also does not provide audio. If you’re looking for a solid solution, I’d recommend a HDMI capture card and adapter - links are in the video description.

I did get it to connect via usb so im guessing the plugins are installed but im lost. Please help if you have the time and thank you for the stream.
For OBS.Camera to work wirelessly you will have to setup the NDI plugin in OBS. This is not the same Plugin as the USB plugin from OBS.Camera. You will have to install another Plugin, then add the NDI Source to OBS and select the OBS.Camera that your iPhone provides there.
Hey Chris thanks for the reply. I did download a plugins NDI cam 1.1 for obs. It was a different one from the first plugin they instructed on their website but nothing.
@@leesantiago1454 I just realized, I think this video would help you more: ua-cam.com/video/oK0YbDI77Oo/v-deo.html It's about an application that can do what you are saying and the tutorial shows how to set it all up with the plugins and all. All that granted you do mean the OBS.Camera app? Because I don't know an app called "OBCAM".
I think im the only one who doesn't really find this helpful? many people have made a video like this and I thought it would be great to follow. however, when I look back at the recorded footage, the video turns out to be super duper choppy/laggy and just unwatchable. I could downscale the output resolution to make it run smoother but I dont think I should be doing that when I want my content to be the games I play on mobile.
Sounds like some part of your setup can not handle the resolution/bitrate/frame-rate settings you chose. I don't know what kind of computer/phone you are using so that's something I can not help with. But generally, reducing the bitrate/resolution or fps could help in your situation.

Please note that the USB Cable solution may only work on macOS and does not capture sound. This is information I learned after making this video. If you'd like a more reliable solution (less lag and also works on windows & mac) I have this video for you: ua-cam.com/video/zJcA9XNEeWs/v-deo.html
TLDR: your best bet is to use a USB-C to HDMI adapter and a HDMI Capture card on the MacBook Air. Then again, if you are just trying to record the iPad screen, why not use the iOS Screen Recording feature itself? (this of course only applies if you are not trying to add anything / stream it etc.)
Only for Mac. Why not put that information in your title? What a waste of time. Thumbs down 👎🏽
You can use the wireless solution (NDI HX Capture) with Windows as well.
And the USB solution works only for mac, that is correct… however… I would not even know that if it wouldn't be for the comments here since I am a macOS only user.
When I try to find iPhone on “DEVICE”......my phone doesn’t appear on the list to choose from. Only has the MacBook camera
Should work there as well if you are on macOS. But tbh I have not used this method in a while so not sure if it still works with current iOS / macOS versions.
My iPhone doesn't appear as a vidoe capture device :(. I'm using iPhone X, is that too old?

but nice video, thanks for sharing
Thanks, I appreciate that 👍.
Mine doesn’t show up
thank you so much sir i love it !
You're welcome 🌸.
the app works with windows right? and give you sound and picture live stream right and just do some download links to connect to obs the its done?
Don’t know since I do not use windows at all.
But from comments it says it may be tricky. I would recommend using a HDMI adapter & capture card (as described in a video linked in the description of this video here).
Its Nice!
Thanks 👍
Does it work for restricted apps?
Windows?
Is OBS Studio available for the Mac?
Yes, OBS Studio works great on macOS.
when i plug my phone into my windows computer the device option isn't popping up
The Lightning to USB connection does not work with Windows (as mentioned in the Description and many comments). I recommend the HDMI adapter + Capture card method as the most reliable: ua-cam.com/video/zJcA9XNEeWs/v-deo.html
Hi, i want to use this method to use my phone as a webcam but i habe always the options from the camera app on obs. do you have a solution for me ?
With OBS you can then activate the Virtual Webcam and use the video feed that way.
for window sir.. what flugins i can download for detect my iphone thanks
Hi, I don’t use windows so I don’t know really.
Nowadays I am recommending the use of a hdmi adapter and cheap capture card to capture your iPhone screen. Much more reliable: ua-cam.com/video/zJcA9XNEeWs/v-deo.html
How can we teach via iPad in windows pc using OBS
Best quality and reliability will be achieved with an USB-C dock which provides power and an HDMI out port. Then you can use a HDMI Capture Card. Link to the is in the description.
I have an iPhone 13, my phone is plugged in my PC and I can't find my iphone in the video capture device in OBS , do any of you know why ?! Please this is urgent!
i think only for macos
does the trick work for PCs
Great, which method did you choose?
Just subscribed I’m an amateur UA-camr! Thank you for this sexy video!
Thanks, I appreciate that.
So I got the iphone hdmi dongle and connected that to the hdmi port on the computer to use as a capture device in obs and I also downloaded the obs cam app and add on to the desktop version and it still doesn't pop up in the iOS cam or as a video capture device is there something I am missing?
The HDMI port on your computer is only a output. You need a HDMI to USB capture card to get the signal from your iPhone HDMI adapter. I talk about this in this video: ua-cam.com/video/zJcA9XNEeWs/v-deo.html
@@ChrisSpiegl oh ok I did see your other video. I will try it out thank you !
I dont use macbook can you do windows?
Hi, I don't use Windows so I will not cover this on my channel any time soon. Sorry. Hope you can find someone who does cover it.
Does this work on windows
The NDI solution should be available for Windows as well. The OBS plug-in is there and the Runtime as well.
But as das as I know the USB to Lightning connection does not work the same way.
i need HELP!
Does the video capture device thing only work with mac? bc i don't have one... And I wanna do it by cable and video capture but when i connect it and want to select it in obs it dosn't show my ipad in devicec (nor does it show my phone (tried that too)) so i can't select it but why?
And i wanna do it with a cable bc before i used lets view and i have no problem with the app but my internetconnection makes it so that the screen mirroring randomly stops and i gotta connect my ipad with the laptop again.... and this happens way to often :/
Hi, the lightning cable method only works with macOS and it does not support audio transmission. The best way you can do and the safest is to use a HDMI adapter and HDMI capture card as shown in the video linked in the description as a better solution.
You need the cam link for the first way to work correct? Or incorrect? 😳
No, on macOS it's a USB cable for this method.
You only need a Camlink when you use the HDMI adapter.
Hi! I did exactly the same when clicking on the Video Capture Device, but there is not option to find connect to my iphone device lol...
Are you on windows or mac? Are you using the wired or the wireless option? Please provide more details otherwise it's impossible to help you with this.
@@ChrisSpiegl Thanks for the reply! Im using windows and the wired option
@@VincentWongHugeBoy First up, I don't use windows so I don't know how things work there. I would assume that the Wireless option works just the same as it is NDI based and the OBS NDI Plugin is available for windows as well.
With the wired option I have heard (not tested) that it either does not work at all or works when you install the iTunes program and somehow that may bring it to working? I am not sure though. I would most likely just go for the wireless option and plug the phone in to a charger to be safe on that one.
@Dr. Venture Good to know, I hope you'll find a solution for your system.
hi, the wired way was actually working for a while but not sure what happen out of sudden it just dont' show my iphone screen, even when it detected the iphone. What could have gone wrong? I notice it happened after i did once to share screen via airpot to my external monitor.
pls help
When I was making this video I think to remember that that came up at some point. It may be because of those messages that sometimes come up and ask if you'd like to authorize the use of the external attachment or something like that.
Maybe restarting the laptop would work, or even the iPhone if nothing else.
If I have ipad and other is Lenovo laptop ,is it work??
Don’t know, I use macOS and can’t comment on Windows machines. Best to try it out.
Wired one might not work but the ndi
one might work
@@ytchautszyiu that’s a good point. The NDI Capture app would probably work. That’s true.
Hi!, When i try to capture my game My phone isn't listed as a device
Which solution are you trying to use?
Hello, wanna know about if i use Wired Connection using the original charging cable, will it work?
If you are using macOS, then the wired connection would work. However, I since am recommending another method (link in the description of this video).
@@ChrisSpiegl will this video wired connection work with Window 10? since i just want to try doing some youtube and not buying capture card or anything first
whenever i use letsview to try and add my phone to obs, it black screens. it was originally working for me but then randomly stopped. any tips?
Not sure what may be happening for you there. Personally, I can only say that I am now using a HDMI Capture card + a Lightning to HDMI adapter. This is much more reliable and has less delay/lag than when using the NDI + Wireless solution.
what about samsung users
Sorry, I can’t help you there since I do not use any Android / Samsung devices.
Is it working with Android too?
I don't know, since I do not use Android like at all 🙈.
how come i couldnt finde the usb device option in my OBS even if i got my phone plugged
Two reasons: 1) you may be using Windows and this only works for macOS. 2) the iPhone asks for permission to connect to your laptop and if you don't give it, this does not work.
@@ChrisSpiegl prolly because im using windows. so do i have to use the hdmi adaptor if i want to connect obs to my iphone and do game livestream? or it will just doesnt work since im on windows? thanks for your replies btw
@@idksowhtevr2538 I would recommend going with the Lightning => HDMI => HDMI Cable => HDMI Capture card. This is going to be the most reliable solution which also transmits sound.
is it possible for my stream to at least have the ingame audio without using capture card?
@@idksowhtevr2538 For that you would have to use a headphone jack and basically route the audio like you would with any mic connected to your computer. Not really easier… if you ask em.
I have a windows computer and when I plug my phone in it won’t show
That is very possible, I don't have a windows machine and don't have any knowledge of this feature being something that works there. Maybe there are different solutions (like NDI Capture app) but yea… guess that's a Apple only thing for now.
I have the same problem but with ipad and iPhone
You have to have iTunes installed
@@jundabug Interesting, does it work on Windows with iTunes installed?
@@jundabug Does it work after installing itunes?
Cn u pls give a lin kto the cabel u are using
Which cable?
I just saw my writing and at first sry for that xD The cabel u are using that plugs from ur phone into the pc
@@crashofmodsold9030 that’s no special cable. It’s just a braided Lightning to usb cable. You can get those on Amazon. I don’t have the link handy at the moment though.
Does it work on pc with iPhone cable?
Not as dar as I know. But you could use a hdmi adapter and capture card: ua-cam.com/users/chrisspiegl
Why I can’t connect my IPhone with obs studio???
Depends, are you using windows?
@@ChrisSpiegl Yes, windows 10
@@MNM728 Then I would recommend this method: ua-cam.com/video/zJcA9XNEeWs/v-deo.html
Thanks for the video. When I follow your settings and try to stream, I get the display on OBS but when I send it to UA-cam studio the screen is black. Any ideas?
Are you streaming from OBS to UA-cam via RTMP or are you using the Webcam feature of UA-cam Studio?
Hi how r you i wana ask if i could onely recoerd 1 app like game captuer in pc it’s possible in iPhones For example when I stream i wana go to whatssapp or any program i dont went to show
I don't quite understand what you are trying to achiv.
i get it, its like when you are streaming pubg and when you switch app, the live broadcast still shows the pubg screen
@@alieffio1313 Pretty sure that's impossible with screen capturing on the iPhone. You'll have to switch scenes in OBS to not show other apps.
Hey, I wanted to record my mobile screen but I have an android and I have a MacBook. And it's not showing my phone on OBS when connected
I don't use Android and don't know what ways would work with your setup.
Maybe this video can help you: ua-cam.com/video/iqqlaOEx9j0/v-deo.html
@@ChrisSpiegl Yeah I got it! Thanks for the directing me in the right way.
i did everything you said but it didn't work for me
Which method did you use and are you using a windows machine?
@@ChrisSpiegl yeah i think that’s why i’m using windows
@@hika2468 Yes, the NDI method works there, but the USB Cable method does not.
I would recommend this setup: ua-cam.com/video/zJcA9XNEeWs/v-deo.html
@@ChrisSpiegl thanks!
its a paid software with no ratings and nothing explained by developers....im not sure guys so please let me know if any one of your actually tried the app?
I have used the app a few times - as you may have guessed by the video. The NDI app works pretty well. However, if you can use a solution with a cable, I would prefer to go the route of HDMI and a USB Capture card as I demonstrated in this video: ua-cam.com/video/zJcA9XNEeWs/v-deo.html
Slightly higher cost but much more reliable.
Cool
Absolutley.
When i go to devices, it doesnt come up and my phone is plugged in to it and unlocked
Hello LinoGMF, are you using an original apple cable? Do you use macOS as your operating system? And have you tried restarting (phone and mac)?
Hey Chris, why does my stream not output any audio from the game? even the phone doesn’t output audio
Don't know what your setup looks like or which method you are using to connect to your computer. Without that info it's almost impossible to help you there.
I have the same issue. @Sean Joshua Do you install plugin called iShowU Audio Capture ?
your video wasn't useful at all i was stuck here 2:40
PS: I have been trying to find out how to record a video just like you have i.e screen sharing my iPad screen and recording my face using an android mobile phone camera and trying to merge them, but haven’t been successful in finding out. Could you please help?
In this specific video I just filmed multiple different perspectives (camera + screen recording) and then combined them with Premiere Pro. However, nowadays I am actually using the ATEM Mini to do most of this without doing any editing and still being able to switch between multiple camera perspectives, displays, and even iPhone or iPad screens.

Great vid but the usb method won’t work
The USB method does not work on windows and it also does not provide audio. If you’re looking for a solid solution, I’d recommend a HDMI capture card and adapter - links are in the video description.
@@ChrisSpiegl well I would like todo ndi but I don't want to use any money
@@UnderC2/videos Guess there is no way atm… unless NewTek decides to make the app free again.
i cannot find my device how do i fix it even though i plugged it in
Do you use windows? The cable solution only works on macOS.
@@ChrisSpiegl yes i use windows
@@ix9regretz311/videos Then the USB cable solution does not work as I have learned from people here in the comment section.
And I also would recommend a different solution now: ua-cam.com/video/zJcA9XNEeWs/v-deo.html
@@ChrisSpiegl thanks you will let u know if it works
I hope you can help I downloaded the OBCAM for iPhone/ipad but cannot get it to go wireless. I followed all the instructions that Obcam suggested and nothing. I did get it to connect via usb so im guessing the plugins are installed but im lost. Please help if you have the time and thank you for the stream.
For OBS.Camera to work wirelessly you will have to setup the NDI plugin in OBS. This is not the same Plugin as the USB plugin from OBS.Camera. You will have to install another Plugin, then add the NDI Source to OBS and select the OBS.Camera that your iPhone provides there.
Hey Chris thanks for the reply. I did download a plugins NDI cam 1.1 for obs. It was a different one from the first plugin they instructed on their website but nothing.
@@leesantiago1454 I just realized, I think this video would help you more: ua-cam.com/video/oK0YbDI77Oo/v-deo.html It's about an application that can do what you are saying and the tutorial shows how to set it all up with the plugins and all.
All that granted you do mean the OBS.Camera app? Because I don't know an app called "OBCAM".
Thanks Chris for the help I will definitely check out the video. Great stream keep up the good work.
@@leesantiago1454 thanks and I hope you find a solution for your setup.
Is there any free options
There are alternatives like for example the Elgato EpocCam. I think that has a free version and works reasonably well.
so sad, it doesnt work on window 10 :(
I understand, maybe try the HDMI capture card + adapter method linked in the description. It's more reliable and relatively inexpensive.
I think im the only one who doesn't really find this helpful? many people have made a video like this and I thought it would be great to follow. however, when I look back at the recorded footage, the video turns out to be super duper choppy/laggy and just unwatchable. I could downscale the output resolution to make it run smoother but I dont think I should be doing that when I want my content to be the games I play on mobile.
Sounds like some part of your setup can not handle the resolution/bitrate/frame-rate settings you chose. I don't know what kind of computer/phone you are using so that's something I can not help with. But generally, reducing the bitrate/resolution or fps could help in your situation.
