Well… this is gonna make one of the only apps I ever bought obsolete.
Bought? I’ve been using this one for like the past 10 years:

The one I paid for (iVCam) works with OBS and Twitch, can do full 4K@60fps and stuff. I had never seen a free one that worked with my other apps, allowed even just full HD, and didn’t have a watermark. I definitely would have preferred something totally free tho.
IP Camera looks like it only works with VLC or a browser according to its description. The built in support for it on Android might not actually do what I want either… 🤔
It’s arguably an old app (est. 2010), but I think OBS should be able to consume a VLC streaming source?
No idea about the max rez@fps, my main uses for it over the years have included things like tying an old phone to a rope and lowering it into a pipe to locate a stray kitten, attaching it to a RC car for a “VR experience”, and using it as an enhanced mirror to take a splinter out of my foot 🤷
Basically see the wiki below but I would like to add is Linux only.
Don’t know if there is something like v4l2loopback for windows.
