By using this, you can get video conferencing apps such as Zoom and Google Meet to recognize VCam as a camera.

After installation or uninstallation, you need to enable the CameraExtension in macOS's Settings under General > Login Items & Extensions > Camera Extensions' info icon > VCam.app.

For the current macOS, there may be times when you need to restart your Mac after installing or uninstalling plugins. If it's not working properly, please restart your Mac. And, VCam must be installed in the "Applications" folder.

How to Use the Virtual Camera

In the camera list of the application that uses a camera, "VCam - CameraExtension [Number]" will be displayed.

Notes When Using VCam and VCam2D Together
