There are many posts about how to stream the video from webcam to VLC, but I want to do something exactly reverse.
I want to send what is played in VLC to a virtual webcam,(V4L2) like /dev/video1
ondoho, Thank you for taking the time to reply,
I assume when we use a virtual camera we can send pictures and videos to the virtual cam and we can stream that like a real webcam. If I'm wrong please let me know.
thanks
