Simple Webcam Setup


Add the following sources:
● Video Capture Device
○
○ Use the default presets if possible
● Audio Input Capture
○

Scale the size of the webcam capture to fit the height of the screen by selecting the Video
Capture Device source and grabbing the top and bottom red square anchor points and dragging
them until they snap to the top and bottom of the screen:
Then click and drag the source left and right until the desired subject is visible.

The Audio Input Capture does not need editing but the volume can be adjusted if you find that
the VU meter keeps going into the yellow or red:

● Mute:

Troubleshooting

Windows
● Error: “VCRUNTIME140_1.dll was not found”
○ Install the ​Visual C++ 2019 Runtime
○ Note: This won’t be an issue once there’s a proper installer instead of a ZIP

macOS
● RPAN Studio crashes when setting up a webcam
○ There seems to be some issues when selecting certain presets and settings
when initializing webcams. Since RPAN Studio is built on OBS Studio this may
be a general bug in OBS. Internal testing shows that the webcams can still be
set up but may cause a few crashes while adding them.
