Discontinued: You now can select the source for virtual camera in OBS itself.
adds a filter to output a source or scene to the build in virtual camera
Normally the obs virtual camera can only output the final mix, but with this plugin you can output an other scene or source by adding the Virtual Camera filter to the source or scene.
Only 1 thing can output to the virtual camera, so make sure only 1 is active. That can be the final mix or any source or scene.

I use this with stream deck. Stream deck has an option to able/disable filters. But stream deck doesn't have an option to switch virtual cam sources/scenes. So I can apply filters (switch virtual cam sources/scenes) with just a touch of a button on my stream deck.
This helps while recording and on a video call with my friends. (sometimes Ill share my screen with my friends but it's nice not having to set up a new screen share button for different apps. I can just always have OBS and use the virtual cam filters).
So there is still a need for this unless there's another way to do the same thing without it. I haven't found a way yet. I'm gonna be sad if it ever stops working.
Awesome filter! I wish I knew how to make stuff like this.

I could not get this working on mac 14.4.1 with OBS 30.1.2

The filter is not needed as you can select which source you want to output in OBS. Click the configuration button next to the start virtual camera button.

The plugin is fine, you should put some options to make it more useful

Love the control of choosing pretty much anything from OBS as the virtual webcam output without having to create a separate scene for it, and without having to worry about what scene is currently active.

@Exeldro another of your very much good plugins that is really good.
It is very handy to use in conferences for to show very much things thru a scene. It has a lot of potential so thanks you very much.
NOTE: You are credited as 'Plug-ins Creator' at the credits of my 'Streams' at the end of them. ;)

Hello - this would be an amazing addition to my workflow, but after installing it, the OBS Virtual Camera no longer works - and I don't know how to uninstall this plugin to determine if I need to reinstall OBS or take next steps.

Excellent contribution
But just a suggestion.
that the virtual video output can be activated / deactivated with the "start virtual camera" button in the main window
because if you want to change to another "scene collection" without deactivating the virtual output in a scene, obs crashes
