# How to use an android phone as a webcam in Parch Linux?
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Installing the dependencies
|
|
|
|
first of all you need to install some dependencies:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo pacman -S scrcpy dkms base-devel linux-headers v4l2loopback-dkms
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
then you need to load the module:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo modprobe v4l2loopback exclusive_caps=1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
### Camera Sharing
|
|
|
|
For using the front camera, first enable **usb debugging** in your phone, then connect your phone via cable and run this command in terminal:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
scrcpy --video-source=camera --camera-size=1920x1080 --camera-facing=front --v4l2-sink=/dev/video0 --no-playback --no-window
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For the back camera just change ```--camera-facing=front``` to ```--camera-facing=back``` .
|
|
|
|
#### testing camera
|
|
|
|
just open obs, or run this command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
ffplay /dev/video0
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### mic sharing
|
|
|
|
For microphone you can run this command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
scrcpy --no-video --audio-source=mic --no-window
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
this would share your phone mic as system audio.
