VMIX CAPTURE INSTALL
VMIX CAPTURE SOFTWARE

Connect across to your GoPro, and tap on Set Up Live This is probably the hardest part of the setup! Try and reboot your GoPro with a long press of the power button if you have trouble connecting. Next connect to your GoPro with the GoPro app on your phone. Open the MonaServer folder and double click on the Monaserver.exe to start the application. YouвЂ™ll also need the GoPro app on your phone. If you want to use the camera with Zoom or any other app that needs a webcam as input, download the free OBS Virtualcam plugin on a PC. If you just want to use your GoPro with OBS, you donвЂ™t need to download anything else.

Next, download and install the free open source OBS Studio. There is an alternative called NGINX that IвЂ™ll link to below that I also got working, but itвЂ™s more complicated to set up. ThereвЂ™s nothing to install, just extract the Zip file.

Download the free MonaServer software for the GoPro to connect toДЇirst off, download a free open source piece of software called Monaserver вЂ“ IвЂ™ll provide a link in the description. IвЂ™m doing the installation on a PC, I havenвЂ™t yet tried it on my Mac. Although theyвЂ™re still not great in low light though, and there is a one to two second delay in the feed which may or may not be important to you, depending on how you decide to use it.Д«efore I show the setup, there is a piece of software called gopro2obs that can do a similar thing but it costs $80 and the following solution is not difficult, so IвЂ™d try this first. This solution can capture audio too, which is much improved on these newer GoPros. And they can run on external power without any additional accessories. They have their huge wide angle view, handy for an interesting camera angle in lots of situations. TheyвЂ™re rugged and waterproof so you can leave them outside, spying on the bird feeder or other wildlife in the garden, as long as it remains in WiFi range. GoPros make very useful wireless webcams. This will also work in any other program that supports a webcam like Skype and Google Meet. Using only free software, IвЂ™ll show you how it is possible to use your GoPro as a wireless webcam in OBS Studio, the free popular recording and live streaming software and Zoom. This is possible on even the budget Apeman A100 I reviewed recently. The GoPro Hero 7 Black, Hero 8 and Hero 9 support live streaming directly from the camera, but frustratingly donвЂ™t have any native support to use them as a webcam on your PC or Mac.
