i have passed the last 2 hours to try to understand how it's work this feature.... i try to explain how i need to do:
Next saturday i have to partecipate to a Zoom videoconference. I don't have a Webcam but i read i can use an Android device used as webcam.
I have an idea to use a Tablet, i have a Lenovo Tab M10 FHD (model it's TB-X606F if i remember) and it's have last current official android update based on android 10.
Android 10 there's no have built in feature to use android as webcam but i read i can use some alternative..... so from right now hells as begun for me :)

First Attempts: USING DROID CAM.
Droid cam it's an android app. You have to install on your android device... configure that and open it. Droidcam has a OBS Plugins available i have installed it load/open it and it's apparently work but i have a lot of issue on audio because i can only listen an infinite ECHO.
Apparently there's no way to avoid this.... i read i need to enable/disable the monitoring of audio but if i disable on OBS the virtual camera has no audio.

Apparently on Os it's need to be enabled somethings like a virtual MIC... i have no idea how i need to do that!


After about 30 minutes and read a lot of post on reddit forums blog etc etc i found a site and his native android app:
USING VDO.Ninja

That app it's easy... you open that and you can choose to share your front or rear camera and the result it's a STREAMING site to vdo.ninja site. It's say you need to add this on OBS as Browser and it's works but also here NO AUDIO AT ALL.
I have tested on zoom.com/test and it's impossible to obtain audio works. I have tryed to enable the monitoring of my default sound card and also here start to listen infinite effect echo and it's impossible to avoid this.

How i can use ? Thanks in advance for every suggestion...

I am not trying to share audio through droid cam I assume that it might be some kind of a security setting or the option just does not exist.

Doesn't the DroidCam Ubuntu client (on your laptop) provide you with everything you need? It should be able to provide both a virtual video and virtual audio device without OBS.
