Can you use a cam background on DirectCam

[fizzyfuzz]

I was wondering if anyone could please offer advice, or if they have any suggestions??

When using DirectCam with a Logitech C920 camera is it possible to use one of those automated backgrounds? You know the ones you can set, which have scenery etc. I was thinking of using a nice scenery as a background. 
Do they work on the cam, or the PC, or the DirectCam software?

Has anyone tried?
any dos or don'ts?
Is this allowed or not?


Thank you in advance.

Hi, I dont know the backgrounds off hand (any google links?) but be sure none have any persons in them, eg a painting on the wall in the back ground or any other pictures, no branding (coca-cola for example) and no other media, eg no tvs in the background of the screen of your mobile etc.

Thats the general rules related to this query.

OBS https://obsproject.com/ is very good at a lot of these kind of things and its free, all webcammers should leearn how to use OBS to get the best quality and effects (tip menu for instance/multcamming/watermarking your stream)

Thankyou for the reply.

I'm aware of copyright, yes and would only use backgrounds which are allowed to be used.  I was reading about OBS, and wanted to know if it would work with Direct Cam. Doesn't DirectCam have anything like this built in? it would be a good idea, I think.

Anyway, what I'd really like to know is if these background are reliable and how they would work with camming. Does OBS work with Directcam for example?

I'd like to hear of people's experiences, ie. does the background switch off sometimes if there is a glitch?
Do you need to do something to the laptop each time someone wants to Directcam?

I have a hunch that  a proper set up would be better, but if an online background can work with camming it would be good to hear what others who have tried it have to say.

Hi, OBS works with directcam yes, most features missing from directcam.

There is a whatsapp chat for verified cammers, very active. You can message https://www.adultwork.com/lwa with your whatsapp number from your AW account and ask to be added to the Verified chat if it helps.

For backgrounds in general, from memory im not sure I have ever seen one on AW, seen them on myfreecams before. Anything that makes your stream stand out (lovense is essential) is good, the uniqueness of it could attract more clients and I believe its all free to setup so no harm in it.

Thanks

Those colours (background) look ok to me, maybe it is a browser thing? Besides, I'm sure the client won't notice the faded background if he is concentrating on the cam woman

I'm less concerned about aesthetics, and more about what happens if it suddenly goes off, lol


Thank you for your input.

I wonder if there is anyone here who has had this happen,
