### Install the important dependencies
~~sudo apt install v4l2loopback-dkms~~
```
sudo apt install ffmpeg
```
### Install v4l2loopback
```
git clone https://github.com/umlaeute/v4l2loopback.git
cd v4l2loopback
make
sudo su
make install
```
```
sudo depmod -a
```
### Add Kernel Modules
```
sudo modprobe v4l2loopback card_label="My Fake Webcam" exclusive_caps=1
```
### Link Video Stream To Fake Webcam
Find video feed in dev
```
ls -1 /dev/video*
```
Next up, we need to “fake” our webcam feed with :
```
ffmpeg -stream_loop -1 -re -i /path/to/video -vcodec rawvideo -threads 0 -f v4l2 /dev/videoX
```
### Remove the fake webcam streams
Once you are done with the fake stream, remove the previously loaded kernel modules with:
`sudo modprobe --remove v4l2loopback`
This should disable the fake webcam.
