Your YouTube video will now be presented on your webcam, and your face will appear in the corner in picture-in-picture mode.

Sharing the video’s sound

To share the video’s sound, you need to use CueCam Audio as the microphone input for your video call.

This allows CueCam to mix your microphone with other audio sources like videos.

Changing the volume

When sharing your browser, you’ll see an audio source in CueCam with the tab’s title.

Tap the main part of the button to mute and unmute the audio.

Click the pink bar at the top of the button to see more controls.

Use the pink slider control to change the volume. Try to keep it in the green.

Change picture-in-picture

If you don’t want your face in a circle, just click the Main Camera button to hide this. Another click brings it back.

Alternatively, you could download the video from YouTube with an app like Downie, and then share from your computer. This is probably a better experience for your viewers as you can avoid showing them ads. How to quickly share a video from your computer
