    This is a great process. I was on a Zoom meeting today and was stunned at how good the latest release was at removing my background with zero tweaking.

      Eventually no physical green screen will be needed due to software advancements

    Great tip! A couple things that would make this method even easier...
    1. Just load the video file as a media source directly in obs instead of playing it in a media player
    2. Just record the meeting in Zoom instead of opening another OBS window to record.
    Other than that this method worked great for me I just did this to simplify the process. Thank you so much!

    • @NiemandzuHause-ci4hb
      @NiemandzuHause-ci4hb Год назад

      @@mc.6122 If you load the video file as a media source directly in obs, in the second instance of obs you need to add application audio (beta) and select the first instance of obs as the source, because for whatever reason zoom meeting audio cannot be captured this way. so in the second instance of obs you record zhe zoom meeting with the custom background plus the application audio of the first instance. I also needed to increase the audio input of the application audio.

    Hi Kevin. I've been using XCAM from XSplit, but it only outputs in 720p eventhough the camera is 1080. Do you know of any other utilities that can strip the background out as recording/broadcasting is taking place? XCam is great, but I'd like to see a 1080 output solution.

    Hi Kevin, yes an excellent work around. I did, however detect that there was a background distortion issue around the edges of your profile at 10.36 from Zoom's Virtual background when moving head/body. This is the problem I personally have when using the Zoom feature without an actual green screen. I am sure that you are aware of this slight imperfection. Is room lighting a solution to a crisper profile without the background lag?

  • @Beemerboy324
    @Beemerboy324 3 года назад

    This actually worked and got me acquainted with OBS and VLC, both excellent open-source products. However, I was creating a standalone video for use in a video project in Sony Vegas, and for that, it didn't work. It worked in that the method you described created a video in which I replace the background but OBS creates the file in a format that Sony Vegas can't use. So it was all for naught in that instance.

    • @iLikeCoffee777
      @iLikeCoffee777 Год назад

      Use VLC or Handbrake to change the file format. In VLC, got to Media -> Convert/Save and select the file and what output type you want. There are approximately 20 options to convert to - super quick and easy.
      If that won't get you a usable file, Hanbdbrake can convert to and from almost 100 different formats although it is a good bit more complex in the available options.

    Very nice video, thank you! But I have to point out that (believe it or not) the process is more complex on the Macintosh. I am trying to do it myself on my MacBook Pro. I had to install Blackhole, create a multi-output device with Audio MIDI Setup (Applications > Utilities), etc. to get the audio to stream, since the Mac kept trying to run audio through the microphone. Oh, and I have to open the second instance of OBS with the Terminal. On my mid-2012 MacBook Pro running Catalina, the audio in the final video clip was out of sync. I then tried the process on my work MacBook Pro running Big Sur (this is a work assignment, but would come in handy for my personal projects). I found that the OBS video stream slows to a crawl. Thanks again for your video, I will keep trying to get it working on my Macs. (Maybe when I finally update my Hackintosh to Linux, I will try it there also.)

    Impressive and a little bit like an infinity mirror. Surely an interesting way to do it - I would hope that there will be capabilities of this type available in either OBS, OpenShot or DaVinci Resolve in the near future. After all this background removal tool evolved in Zoom as a tool solely available for i7-processors a year ago to something which now runs in real time on a wide range of platforms. I would especially like a blurry background with configurable levels of blurriness.

    • @KevinStratvert
      @KevinStratvert  3 года назад

      There's a new magic mask feature in DaVinci Resolve Studio (the paid version) that does something like this. Check this out: ruclips.net/video/pTdm0soTUXI/видео.html Hoping it comes to more editing apps soon.

    • @uwezimmermann5427
      @uwezimmermann5427 3 года назад

      recording through Zoom might give you a poorer quality than recording the screen through OBS because Zoom is much more aggressive in the compression settings. But probably it doesn't matter too much. since there will be edges and artifacts anyway...

    Hi. Glad to have found your channel, I am learning so much from you! Thanks to you, I am now also able to change backgrounds of my videos.
    I just wanna ask though, why would zoom cover the whole screen with the background and you won't see the video screencap. Then if I remove the background, the video screencap is there. I went ahead with the recording (with the background covering the whole screen in zoom), hoping it would still work, but it didn't. I hear the sound, but even the background is gone and the screen is just black.
    This happened on 2 or 3 videos, even when I was using the same background I used on the videos I didn't have trouble with. Thanks in advance!
