The package uses obs-virtual-cam which has to be installed separately. Note that the obs-virtual-cam installer assumes an OBS Studio installation and will fail otherwise. You can also download and extract the obs-virtual-cam zip package directly without installing OBS Studio. After unzipping, simply run regsvr32 /n /i:1 "obs-virtualcam\bin\32bit\obs-virtualsource.dll" from an elevated command prompt to install the virtual camera device. Use regsvr32 /u "obs-virtualcam\bin\32bit\obs-virtualsource.dll" to uninstall it again.
