Thank you. That will definitely help...although I occasionally use text scrolling/timers in OBS, and flipping them really makes it hard to use. But if I can just get the cameras to work that's a breakthrough...
using a second external camera with microsoft teams
I am an educator and will be using Microsoft Teams with students. Is there a way to use a second external camera and share that image with the people in your meeting at the same time as the primary camera on my laptop?

2021-01-26T20:40:10+00:00 I am using OBS and I have two cameras. It works just fine in MS Teams *except* that the images are mirrored and I cannot figure out how to change it in MS Teams (like you can in Zoom). If I mirror the images in OBS then it shows up in Teams just fine, but I suspect this is a limitation of MS Teams.
At any rate, you can definitely use two cameras. You need OBS (which supports as many cameras as you want) and then OBS spits out a "virtual camera" to MS Teams. You can control which camera is showing from within OBS.

2021-01-23T18:30:49+00:00 I have the same problem. My pc doesnt have an inbuilt camera so i have purchased one but I also have a camera to demonstrate practical aspects of my art lessons. I would like to switch between the two. We use a teams platform at school for the remote teaching during this current situation.
