You can use the v4l2loopback kernel module to create a virtual camera, and use one of the many tools to send video to the virtual video device. However, that will just send a video or image to the video device, it won't get your webcam's picture and overlay it on top of it. If you want that, you'll need to do what zoom is already trying to do, which requires a static background (a green screen). -- Jonathan Billings <billi...@negate.org> _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
