Re: "Showing my script "gemlogssh" in action with an old-school..."
For extra credit, maybe someone can figure out how to alpha-composite the edges of the screen image, or at least a non-rectangular masks!

heh, instead of scene with a camera i just do mplayer which plays from the webcam.
i actually decided to use ffmpeg instead of obs because obs was putting video on the screen without window decorator and title bar. and it looked inconsistent. so i decided to play stream with mplayer.
btw the video stream comes from canon 6d, which was not supported by canon official software which helps to use camera as a webcam, but gphoto2 can do that.)
to be fair i need to say that during covid i think canon not only released its software which makes it possible to use some cameras as web cams, but also released an update which if i am not mistaken supported my old and outdated camera.

The abscense of window decorator "issue" made posible the video which starts this thread 😅
Your video is from your entire desktop, isn't it? OBS allows you to generate scenes by putting content from different sources (windows, images, cameras, webcams, phones...) together, in the way you need them, like making a collage.
BTW, nice desktop, is it Enlightenment DE? or another implementation of GNUstep?
Showing my script "gemlogssh" in action with an old-school video — I've just published the video in my Mastodon account. The script helps me to manage posts in my Gemini capsule, served with Agate, trough SSH. For the show, I used OBS to screecast a Cool Retro Term screen over an image of an Amstrad PC W512 monitor.
