Simple explanation to set up capturing application window? #154

Open e-t-l opened 2 years ago

e-t-l commented 2 years ago

Apologies if I'm not tech savvy enough to decipher the documentation here, but I'm having trouble setting this program up (Win 10, 64-bit). I installed it, and I can see it as a virtual Webcam input in Zoom but not in Skype. However, it's displaying my entire screen, so if I go in Zoom, then it's just infinite Zoom windows. Did we figure out a way to display a particular application window like #67 was requesting? (specifically if that application is NOT the active window?)

Would greatly appreciate if someone could walk me through the setup :)

Basically you discover its "window handle" then set a registry value to that handle...value. It's not easy but is possible
