Skype for Business 16 - Are Virtual Camera's Supported?

Question

Sign in to vote

I have 2 virtual camera's installed on my windows 7 Enterprise computer plus the integrated HP webcam. One is the Wirecast 7.2 Virtual camera and the other is the IP Camera adapter that connects to my mobile cameras. All my other video conferencing programs like Cisco WebEx, Zoom, and Bluejeans recognize my virtual cameras as Wirecast Virtual Camera, MJPEG Camera and the integrated HP HD Webcam.

However Skype for Business 16 only recognizes the hardware connected camera HP HD WebCam under Video Devices.

Is there a way to make Skype for Business 16 recognize and reliably use these virtual cameras?

Hi Al Lounsbury,

So far, the virtual camera is not supported for SFB, it’s by design.

The feedback has been provided, we will develop this feature as soon as possible.
