The simplest way to use CueCam with OBS is to select CueCam’s virtual camera as a Video Capture Device in OBS.

Add a Video Capture Device.

Call it CueCam and press “OK”.

Select CueCam as the source and press OK.

This brings through CueCam’s virtual camera.

Select CueCam Audio as an input. Since you’re using CueCam, it may be better to do this per-scene, since you won’t need as many scenes but it’s likely you might want a scene where CueCam’s audio is muted (for a countdown timer and music loop, for example).

Click the + icon in the Sources panel and select “Audio Input Capture”.

Call it CueCam Audio and click OK.

Select CueCam Audio as the source and click OK.

You now have CueCam’s audio in OBS. Always leave CueCam’s volume at 0.0 dB inside OBS or you will not get the benefits of CueCam’s LUFS metering and mixing.

This gives you:

• Automatic Video Pencil and Shoot integration - drawing on anything, iOS devices as wireless cameras
• All of CueCam’s live and card-based sharing features (slides, images, videos, window, second camera and more)
• CueCam’s Aside 3D, camera LUT and green screen features
• Audio from videos, screen shares and other CueCam / Video Pencil sound effects
• The benefits of CueCam’s LUFS audio meters

You can add any additional branding and custom overlays in OBS to use in your live streams.

Drawing on your screen or videos

If you want to draw on a video or your screen using Video Pencil, be sure to share content via CueCam, not OBS.

Keynote and Powerpoint presentations

Build your presentation inside CueCam instead of sharing, for example, a Keynote window.

Use the right program feed in your teleprompter

When live streaming, use CueCam’s teleprompter to share an OBS’s Window instead of using CueCam’s Virtual Camera for a more accurate view of what you are sharing.

Switching OBS scenes from CueCam cards

You can drive your OBS-based stream from CueCam by triggering scene changes from cards.

First, you will need to set up OBS’s WebSocket Server.

Check “Enable WebSocket server”. Create a server password and note the Server Port.

Open CueCam’s Settings window.

Enter the OBS server port and password.

Ensure that your OBS Scenes are named correctly. Scenes are selected by name from Ecamm so they will not be found if you change their names later.

Click the Add (+) button and scroll to OBS Scene. Under this option you will find all of the scenes in your current OBS profile.

You will now see the OBS scene selector in your card. When this card is presented, OBS will switch to the selected scene.

How to draw on an OBS scene that doesn’t use CueCam as the main source

CueCam exposes a Syphon feed of the transparent layer from Video Pencil.

You can add this as an overlay to any OBS scene. Click + and select “Syphon Client”.

Name this layer Video Pencil.

Select “![Video Pencil via CueCam] Video Pencil Layer” and check “Allow Transparency”.

In order to see this on your iPad, activate OBS’s Virtual Camera. Here’s how it looks when it’s running.

In CueCam select OBS Virtual Camera as your Main Camera.

Now you can see your OBS feed on your iPad using Video Pencil and draw on it, live on stream.
