Managed to get the video working through OBS. I did notice that if the resolution is too large, I get a black screen. The largest I managed to get working is 640x360. Bill, you might be able to get video by sending it through OBS as well? I unmasked "media-video/obs-studio" and "media-video/obs-v4l2sink" (Latest version, except for 9999) Don't forget to apply the patch Neil mentioned in his email. I added the "v4l" USE-flag to "media-video/obs-studio" When all is installed, load the v4l2loopback driver with: # modprobe v4l2loopback exclusive_caps=1 video_nr=5 card_label="loopback" Then start OBS: # obs In settings, set "output (scaled) resolution" to 640x360 (You can find this under "VIDEO") Add your real webcam as video-source (set resolution to 640x360 if at all possible, OBS will scale on the fly if necessary. Start the V4L2 sink by: Tools -> V4L2 Video Ouput Set " /dev/video5 " as device and format " YUV420 " Then start "teams" and select "loopback" as the video-device. For me, this worked. Now only to find out how to add a different background and do other silly things. -- Joost
