Hello all,
I'm new here. I've been toying with the idea of using my T5i as a webcam for Zoom / Google Meet Meetings. I've installed Magic Lantern to clear overlays, force shutter, and all that. I use Camera Live and CamTwist to set up the camera, but when I go to use it as a webcam, it is choppy...and Camera Live is running at 100% CPU usage.
Now I may not find the answer here, but are there any settings that I could change in order to reduce the throughput to the computer from ML? I'm using a macbook pro (this year) and am surprised that Camera Live would practically crash each time I use it...so I am starting with ML to see if there are some settings I could use to hopefully fix it.
Any help is appreciated.
Nothing ML can do about it.
i have used my T5I (700D) on broadcast software and workstation computer with no problems ! running ml you just adjust for the crop in broadcast software . it could be your computer ,hdmi wire software your using hard to diagnose here! or use canons new EOS Webcam Utility Beta
