Help with Fujifilm X-T3 and Webcam 2 on macBook Pro

[concentratedcuriosity]

Hi,

I attempted to set up my Fujifilm as a webcam on Zoom/Teams today, but it's not being detected.

Software

• macOS Sonoma 14.1.2 on macBook Pro 2019
• Fujifilm X Webcam 2.1.0.0
• Fujifilm XF 18-55mm lens

X-T3 Settings

• Drive Dial set to "Single frame", Shutter Speed Dial set to 60, Sensitivity Dial ISO set to A (Auto)
• Set up > Connection Settings > Connection Mode > USB Tether Shooting Auto
• AF MF > Face/Eye Detection Setting > Face Detection ON > Eye AUTO
• AF MF > AF+MF ON
• Movie Setting > Movie Mode > 4K 16:9 > 29.97P > 100Mbps

Steps

1. Turn off X-T3
2. Connect USB-C to USB-C cable (tried multiple USB-C cables, including the two different macBook charger cables) from USB-C port on X-T3 directly into macBook Pro ports (tried all ports)
3. Open Fujifilm X Webcam 2 Application on macBook
4. Open Zoom/Teams on macBook and start a meeting
5. Turn on X-T3
6. Zoom: Settings > Video > Camera. Only shows built in camera, no other camera/webcam options

 

What am I doing wrong or missing here?

From your description it sounds like this problem has not been completely fixed yet.

Apple made some changes, and fixes to those changes are taking a (long) while to get out to the public. The article has a link that lists some pssible work-arounds. Possible means they also may not work.

p.s. Welcome to the forum.
