It's well understood that capturing straight from capture devices is much better, and the code is already designed to list all video devices. Capturing from window screencap is only there for folks playing on emulators.
See code here
So you need to check why your browser is not listing your device.
In case this is a browser issue, note that Nestrischamps is tested only on Chrome and Firefox.
To troubleshoot, you can try this:
1) visit obs.ninja, click on Add your Camera to OBS, and check if the video capture device is listed there.
2) In nestrischamps capture page in Chrome, open the dev tools (right-click somewhere where there's nothing, and select Inspect, then click the console tab, and run this code:
navigator.mediaDevices.enumerateDevices().then(ds => ds.forEach(d => console.log(d)))or if you want to see only the videoinput devices, run this:
navigator.mediaDevices.enumerateDevices().then(ds => ds.filter(d => d.kind === 'videoinput').forEach(d => console.log(d)))On my computer, it shows this:

I apologize if this is a stupid question: When I open the calibration site, my USB video capture device is not available. My guess is that the workaround here is to stream the capture device to a window and run nestrischamps on that window. I think it'd be better if this intermediate window were not necessary because
I suggest it'd be cleaner if you could calibrate directly to any webcam or video device
FWIW, my capture device shows up in the device manager under "Sound, video, and Game Controllers". And is enumerated by Aforge along with my webcam.
