SplitmediaLabs, a software development company based out of Hong-Kong, specializes in multimedia management. Its XSplit VCam software was one of the best-selling products in the GameRant store for 2020, and it is easy to see why. XSplit VCam software makes it possible for any Windows user to blur and substitute backgrounds in video streams with any webcam.
The video processing program provides a feature similar to the one found in Nvidia’s Broadcast app, which uses AI algorithms to detect the difference between the user in the foreground and the features of the background. This allows for the cut-out effect normally achieved by the use of a green screen. The advantage of XSplit VCam is that it does not require the user to purchase any additional hardware, or even use a specific brand of graphics card.
The camera feed provided by the app can be used by virtually any camera-facing program on the machine, including Hangouts, Skype, WeChat, Zoom, OBS Studio, vMix, and more. All the user has to do is point the program’s “video source” to receive from XSplit VCam. From there, a user can blur the background or remove it entirely, allowing them to recreate the face-cam effect that many popular Twitch streamers employ today.
It is also possible to have the background in the video stream replaced with a still image, video, web page, or even a YouTube video, like Herman Li’s latest music video, all without setting up a green screen. Clever video editors could use the tech to insert themselves directly into scenes and recreate famous moments. At that point, streamers need only worry about the limits of copyright law, and should ensure that they have rights to whatever video they choose to run in the background.
This program is useful not just for content creators, but also for those who regularly attend video chat meetings, including students who may not wish to share an untidy bedroom with classmates. Being able to conceal one’s personal effects in professional settings can be considered a vital matter of privacy. In a world where work and home life is increasingly blurry, being able to control what one transmits online is increasingly important.
XSplit Vcam can be run on 64-bit Windows 7 or higher. The machine only needs a 6th generation Intel processor or better and properly updated graphics drivers. SplitmediaLabs offers 24/7 support and updates for life, and keys are available at the GameRant store for only $49, discounted to $20 as of this writing.
