Is it available as a video source directly in OBS? I know I can open it in QuickTime, but then you'd have to add a layer of window capture...

Personally I'm looking for a Windows solution primarily, but if I can open it directly in OBS, I might just run my MacBook and use the NDI plugin from the parent to stream that video to my PC.

Yes, it pops right up in OBS as well as QuickTime and so on.

Using another layer of window capture doesn't work very well as I'm sure you know - it gets super laggy!

Oh, don't I know. I last looked into this when I had to produce a video explaining the FLP theorem. In the end I opted to just TikZ everything and avoid the iPad route because I couldn't get anything working acceptably well.

(Though I never tried just adding it as an video source directy, I assumed there had to be secret sauce in QuickTime.)

Thank you so much for the info!
