Restream Studio can only show what your browser can detect. You can visit our camera test tool or this website to check if your camera is detectable by your browser.
Check if your camera is listed among the options on those tools. If yes, it will work in Restream Studio. If not, please consult with your camera's manufacturer.

Why is Studio not showing my virtual camera as an option?
You need to turn on the virtual camera on its software first - that will allow your browser to detect it. If you are setting it up for the first time, you may need to restart your browser.
What does "auto" mean in my video resolution?
What does "auto" mean in my video resolution?
Auto means that your camera will be set to the maximum available resolution based on your live stream quality setting. For example, if you set your live stream quality to Full HD, we automatically set your camera quality to Full HD, too.
You will also see a quality indicator on the top left corner of your stream preview. This label will display your stream's resolution, like 720p or 1080p.
