For now, just know that the future looks reasonably positive. This also means that macOS developers, after some major hurt as they migrated to newer Apple architectures, should be really future-proof when it comes to new Mac stuff – including those upcoming Apple Silicon-based Macs. But fortunately, developers are finding a way to give us the use case we want and still comply with security rules. Just as we as artists really want to freely share video from app to app, people concerned about security really don’t want us to do that. Syphon Virtual Webcam sits in between – it takes Syphon video textures from your source app, appears as a camera in the app you want to use to broadcast/chat.Īll of this is non-trivial for developers, in that they do have to keep up with Apple’s increasingly tight security.
SOUND SIPHON 2 FULL
Sources (Syphon): Isadora, Adobe After Effects, VMDX, MadMapper, Modul8, Grand VJ, Unit圓D, OpenFrameworks, Processing, and many others ( see Syphon for full list)ĭestination (virtual webcam): Chrome, Safari, Zoom, Discord, Slack, and of course the ubiquitous OBS (Open Broadcaster Software) The upshot of this: start with your creative app / VJ tool / game engine, and route into a chat / streaming app or the like. The free tool builds on the existing goodness that is Syphon – an open source protocol for sharing video textures between apps. This time, the love comes from TroikaTronix, makers of the excellent, artist-friendly visual media tool Isadora. The Mac visual developer community is a friendly bunch. The solution: a free utility that lets you route video from any Syphon app on the Mac.
Virtual, online, streaming tools – a lot of them are inflexible when it comes to inputs beyond just a webcam.
