Why does OBS Virtual Camera / VirtualCam crash or not work correctly?
This virtual device is quite buggy in our experience. We have noted that if you just try to start
the device it will not produce frames. Instead you must select one of the modes. In our
testing there were only I420 and NV12 format modes. The I420 modes worked, but if you
switched between modes it would crash internally with a stack overflow exception. The NV12
modes didn’t produce any frames.
There is another virtual camera plugin for OBS which appears in the menu and produces
virtual devices called “OBS-Camera”. We found that this virtual device worked much better
