Again, only available for Mac today, soon for PC. Ok, with that done, go ahead and download the GoPro Webcam app here. It’ll take about 60 seconds and show you an updater icon on the back, indicating that it’s updating the firmware: Next, put the microSD card back in the GoPro and turn it on.

So, when all is said and done, you’ll see the UPDATE folder sitting at the same level as the DCIM folder, like this: You’ll unzip the UPDATE folder and place it on micro-SD card (at the top level). To do that, go to this page and download the Beta firmware.
GoPro says it’s in development and coming shortly, which is probably why this is marked as Beta, and not as ‘Donezo’.įirst, you’ll need to upgrade your GoPro. As of today, the Windows beta app isn’t out yet. To begin, you’ll need a few things to get started:ī) A USB-C cable (the one that came with your GoPro is perfect) In that video I cover install, configuration, Zoom, Skype, Microsoft Teams, OBS, Facebook, QuickTime, and more! The Quick and Dirty: Simply press the play button below for the complete run-through! You can now get that wide-angle shot you always needed to ensure you most definitely accidentally capture your roommate/partner/child in the far corner of your room doing something unsaid, on your next work conference call. In short, the solution was wasn’t ideal for today’s global situation (nor really, ideal for any point in the last decade when people just wanted it as a darn webcam).įear not, today changes that. Now, you could with a smartphone stream a GoPro live to the interwebs for apps like Facebook Live or YouTube, but not for usage within apps like Zoom or other conference apps. And even then, up to the Hero 7 that was limited to 720p, and with the Hero 8 that port required you also buy a GoPro Media Mod. The only way you could get video from a GoPro to a computer live was via HDMI cable, but that’s only if you’re computer had an HDMI capture card (which, it almost certainly didn’t).
Up until now, the GoPro hasn’t actually been capable of enumerating as a USB webcam. So, if you wanted to livestream/Zoom your next Zwift session or such with friends and get the full bike in there – this is much easier. Today GoPro has launched a beta feature for the Hero 8 Black that allows you to use it as a tethered USB webcam for apps like Zoom, Teams, Twitch, and basically any other app that can use a USB webcam (which, is basically any video conferencing app).
