Only came across OBS studio yesterday and then your channel which has been super helpful in showing me how to use it for Powerpoint slides and then hosting in zoom. Absolutely priceless!

hi Markus, this is great! I have a Live Zoom coming up and wanted to use some of PowerPoint and wondered how to make it interesting and keep my face on the screen. I just downloaded OBS onto my Mac OSX. I have a Logitech Webcam: assuming that's all I need, yes? Can't wait to do a great Live Zoom! Greetings from Spain.

Great tutorial, and great scene! I wonder though how to access zoom's annotate tools within this setup. Because the presentation/slides is happening inside of the OBS Scene, Zoom's Annotate tools are not available. Is there any workaround this? thanks again for sharing a great step-by-step video!

Yes you can definitely use annotations. Share the OBS screen with the fifth method mentioned in this video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/pHagpcaOn7C_Z9o.html

Great presentation and ideas! a few questions. 1. how do i use PPT presenter mode with this setup. 2. how do i advance the slides whithout going back to the PPT window? Thank you!
2 жыл бұрын
If you're using presenter mode on a second monitor, just Display Capture that monitor in OBS. To advance the slides, you could potentially use a remote. But for this reason, I prefer to use native OBS slides.
Thank you for this video. Really helpful. I also saw your video which shows how to have two cameras one from your computer and one from your phone at the same time using OBS. My question: I would like to have two cameras and PPT show that participants can see while I present on zoom. Can the secondary camera be a phone? How should I do that on OBS? Please advise. Thanks.

There are a few apps which will turn your phone into a webcam and plug it in via USB. I've just always solved it with joining a Zoom meeting on the phone, and then adding that to OBS Studio.
I teach languages by Zoom, is there a way to use the buil-in PowerPoint tools (annotation, doodling, etc) from within OBS? I need to add doodles and highlights over my slides as I go. Your tutorials are crystal clear and take away the anxiety of trying new things, thanks!

Not really directly in OBS Studio. But you can use them in PowerPoint, and just capture the window (or display) into OBS.

Great video! Question though. My slides on Zoom/Teams/Google Meet, they look extremely pixelly and hard to read through this setup. Is there a particular setting that will let me share them in a sharper way? Thanks!

So, can you make the video of you use a virtual background instead of the room you're in?

If you have a green screen you can do it with chroma key.
DOES THIS METHOD WORK for KEYNOTE? ….What about prerecorded VIDEO?
Great presentation but not clear to me how to actually share the mixed image into Teams or Zoom.

Just select OBS Virtual Camera in your video conferencing setup, and the whole scene will come through in place of your camera.
How do you get your cam in fullscreen for everyone? Since you don’t share your presentation via the Share Screen Button
3 жыл бұрын
Two ways: either spotlight the speaker, as the host. Or click Share screen, Advanced, Content from a 2nd camera. Then click Switch camera until you get to your OBS content.
I've followed your steps but the quality of the zoom image from virtual cam is blurry, what do I do?

Two ideas that come to mind are in the Zoom video settings. Activate Original ratio and HD. That might help.
I do window capture in obs to display my zoom in obs...but when i do screen sharing my power point slide in zoom...window capture in obs dissappear(blank)..how should i do

In my experience, you can't have multiple screen shares/window captures from different applications at the same time. In my setup, I don't bring Zoom into OBS at all.
Wauw niiice... Now how come that I do not see the virtual camera in ZOOM`?

Every time I open the windows capture, my PPT file doesn’t show up at all. Even if I have it running and not minimized. I always run into this problem and I don’t know how to fix it. I looked all day on the internet and I can’t get a straight answer. Why doesn’t my PowerPoint file not show up on the windows capture? It’s frustrating!

@ thank you! Is your zoom account a business account? heard zoom would compress the video quality of the stream to SD in order to conserve their bandwidth
3 жыл бұрын
@@tingteckweetimothy922 No, mine is the basic paid plan. I think it's called Pro. I've certainly seen downscaling, especially for recordings down to 360p. But then again, I use really big fonts on my slides, so they should be legible even if compressed.

It would for sure be blurry, zoom can only optimize for video or for text at once. If using a virtual camera it will optimize for video, smooth frame rate. For slides it will be blurry and only will look decent when using screen share function in zoom or changing option to optimize for graphics but then video would be jerky. That’s just how zoom works

You can put videos in your PowerPoint presentations, and then bring them into OBS (if that's what you're asking). But with the Virtual Camera, you won't get audio.
