How to relink the cameras in OBS
Occasionally after large OS updates or software updates, your computer may disconnect the goggles from the software, and a quick relink will be required. Please follow the instructions below.
A. Connect All Cameras
In order make sure OBS can see all of the connected devices, plug in the goggles and optionally an external webcam if you are using a camera not built-in to your computer.
B. Link Camera Scene
In the Scenes box confirm 9 – LINK CAMERAS is selected and if not click on it.
C. Open Properties of Left Eye Camera
In the Sources box, double left-click on Camera 1 (Left Eye) to open the properties window.
D. Select OBS Virtual Camera
In the Device dropdown menu, select OBS Virtual Camera from the list.
Note: If you do not see OBS Virtual Camera on this list, Please select any available option other than Left Eye.
E. Select Left Eye
In the Device dropdown menu, click Left Eye from the list. You should see the camera feed in the preview window.
Click Ok to save the settings.
F. Open Properties of Right Eye Camera
In the Sources panel, double left-click on Camera 2 (Right Eye) to open the properties window.
G. Select OBS Virtual Camera
In the Device dropdown menu, select OBS Virtual Camera from the list.
Note: If you do not see OBS Virtual Camera on this list, Please select any option other than Right Eye.
H. Select Right Eye
In the Device dropdown menu, click Right Eye from the list. You should see the camera feed in the preview window.
Click Ok to save the settings.
I. Open Properties of Room Camera (Optional)

J. Select Room Camera
In the Device dropdown menu, select your room camera from the list. It is usually called either Integrated Webcam or Facetime Camera.
Note: The camera name can vary and also can include the name of the manufacturer (eg. HP Webcam). Try them all until you find the right one–you won’t break anything 🙂
K. Confirm All Cameras are linked
Congrats! Your cameras should now be all linked to OBS and will be visible in this setup scene. You can confirm that the scenes work by clicking through any of the scenes 1 through 7.
