How to Use Ecamm for Zoom - Full Tutorial | Professional Presence (Bonus) 

Thank you so much, Cat. I used to use OBS, but after switching to an M1 Mac Mini, OBS became so unstable, time consuming, and frustrating. It is your videos that ended me to take the plunge and subscribe to E-Cam Live. I use it with Zoom every day, so this is great news. Thanks again for a great intro, and never stop smiling. It always brightens my day.😊

Cat, great video! Can you clarify how to put the active speaker in the camera source. I cannot seem to figure that out. You had your preset overlays and I've the guest 1, guest 2 concept, but I didn't see how you managed to get the active speaker in there. Thanks!

I tried the integration in a training class today. Unfortunately, it cut my audio 3 times, twice after returning from breakout rooms. In all 3 cases no one could hear me and I had to restart Ecamm in order for my participants to again hear me. Everything was set up as it has been for 100+ of these training sessions. It was nice to bring others' cameras into my scenes and very nice to highlight comments, but I can't use this again until it's reliable. I've submitted a support request via the app.

I did a joint livestream yesterday with some big platforms. Someone else was the host. I upgraded to ecamm pro as the call was in zoom. Set up was good But when I hit ‘go live’ and streamed the zoom meeting I was the only one out of about 20 who had audio problems. No sound for the audience watching until I flicked the mic and speaker option while in panic mode. Eventually they heard the show but when it came to me speaking none of the other zoom guests could hear me. It was all fine in the ecamm recording file afterwards but not when it was live. There are multiple options with settings and I hope it’s just something simple to correct. But could a clear video on mic and speaker settings be done for all possibilities when using ecamm live with zoom? I was using an up to date MacBook Pro 16 inch with m2 chip (2023). I used internal mic and speakers with my iPhone 15 pro max linked for the camera.

Great walkthrough. I found this very helpful.

❤Love your work Cat, and thank you ecamm for your hard work and commitment to integrate Zoom. I’m excited to start using it.

So helpful. The “spotlight” option solves the camera switching problem I was having with Zoom integration. So thank you.

Thanks so much for the video! Every time I begin a meeting it shows "NOT CAPTURING" in the audio for my zoom guests on ecamm. Any ideas what to do?

Thanks for this great video. I will be using Ecamm for podcasting. Dem Bois Podcast is now on episode 65. I just purchased new sound equipment (Rodecaster Pro II) that was not functional with Zoom alone. I am looking forward to Ecamm taking things to the next level!

I need help my cameras and audio do not work when I am on zoom through Ecamm. My cameras and audio works fine on Ecamm but does not get registered on zoom.

Can you LIVESTREAM through Ecamm with this feature while utilizing all the features?

Great walk through! Thank you! I was using the zoom integration to teach my virtual classes. This makes me nervous because we watch videos during our classes, have class discussions, I share my screen during class and I could potentially have up to 15 people per semester. When I use sound effects, I need the participants to hear them. None of that was covered here. I also don't know what the audio settings should be. Do you have a video for instructors and users that will have more than 8 participants? I have 2 zoom accounts. One account for my business and the other account is with the university for my classes. Not sure how to navigate that yet, will try and see what happens. I love ECAMM LIVE and have been using it for years now but this make me nervous because I can't seem to find any information on this particular use case. Until, I do I have to change my whole class delivery format. Can you please do a video demo for instructors or teachers that teach online classes? Anyway, great programming as usual and she is such a great teacher!! 🙏 Thank you!!

I run a virtual speaking competition. This is so cool and would really help WOW the audience and keep them engaged. The only thing is we have up to 10 speakers, and I wish Ecamm would allow that many guests at one time, bc then all my speakers could be highlighted on screen fancy. Otherwise, this is amazing. Really excited and incredible advances!

Great walkthrough, thank you. I will use it for podcasts and webinars (recorded and livestreamed). I think this integration has spared me the pain of having to upgrade from an Intel i5 iMac to one of the new M-Chip machines. Well for now at least anyway.

Thanks Cat. Do I still need to use LoopBack or can I directly use my Samson mic?

I’ve used Ecamm in Zoom before with an enterprise license and when not sharing my screen, the camera resolution wasn’t good. I tried this a lot, with different people, and they all agreed that screen sharing was always higher resolution that doing it all in my camera feed. Yes, I had ask my settings for audio and video at their highest resolution/settings. I’m not sure this integration changes anything in that output feed. Maybe I’m missing something.

Cat is such a good teacher. thank you

Great video Cat. I would like to use Ecamm for Zoom Webinar with breakout rooms. Will that work?

When I initiate a zoom meeting outside ecamm all the sound works great. When I use the new zoom ecamm integration my ecamm can't hear zoom. I can't find anyone who has guidance for this.

How are NAMES shown instead of Guest NUMBERS?

Cat if I want to play music while I'm on Zoom - how do I do that so that all my participants can hear my RU-vid playlist. I still need them to see my scene and be able to hear the playlist at the same time.

Thank you for your presentation. Is there a way that I can download the scene profiles that you used in this video? 😊

I needed this walkthrough so bad! I'm on my way to being less zoom illiterate. More Cat tutorials!

To answer @Doc Rock 's question - it is NOT too late to start Bridgerton

Fantastic walkthrough everyone, specially the Cat-Host! I'm very excited about this integration because it'll level up my workshops. Many people are really used to Zoom and although the guest invitation dialogue in Ecamm is very self-explanatory, it's still a hurdle for many. The main takeaway for me is still going to be that Ecamm integration when I go --> to a Zoom meeting as participant. Jeez how people are going to be wowed. Even if we could do it before with the use of Ecamm Virtual Camera, it seems go much smoother now. Great times!

Really well done! Thank you :)

I am I to take it that the only way that you are going to be able to stream your Ecamm feed to control the multiple guests that you feature is if you Spotlight your zoom window? Or is there a way to stream the Ecamm feed to Zoom?

Excellent! Is it possible to bring in question from the Q and A box into the ecamm window (like the chat comments) Thanks for this tutorial!

Wow. This is fantastic! I remember the old method where you could get eccam to show up in Zoom... This is a whole entire new level here. Congrats to everyone involved. Can't wait to help out with making sure all of this is accessible for blind users.

If the ecamm call in feature had the active speaker feed it would be the best thing ever. Please add it.

Great video. This will help me set up today for training classes this coming week. Thank you!

Top notch presentation again, Cat! 👏🏻 Q: just wondering which screen you would be using in your teleprompter- the ecamm program screen or the zoom screen? I’m still using an iPad with Duet with my Neewer teleprompter.

Great tool for adding external guest to run of show. Enjoyed the video, thanks!
