Not outputting video to desktop programs #11

I've tried following the instructions here and at v4l2loopback, and I have a "Dummy video device (0x0000)" that will output video to Google Hangouts. However, I want it to output to Discord. The device appears on Discord (as does "Dummy video device (0x0001)" for whatever reason), but it shows a black screen on "test video" and just the loading icon in a call. Why would it be not outputting to Discord, and can I fix it?

Hey, I had that problem originally with Discord app and I found setting my base resolution to 1280x720 and my scaled resolution to 424x240 fixed it. It crashes with YUV420 but works with YUY2. I'm gonna try slowly increasing my scaled resolution to see how high it can go for Discord. Edit: So with the base resolution at 1280x720 and the scaled resolution also at 1280x720 it seems to work for discord.
