title: How do I make a virtual webcam? (Ex: Manycam)
body: <p>I've been looking into creating my own video capture and streaming software (I'm just looking to challenge myself, so this isn't a crucial project) and have found all the information that I need other than how to stream the video as a virtual webcam.</p>
  
  <p>For example, Manycam will take several different inputs (I have this covered), and when you go into a program, such as Skype, it is listed as a webcam source. When you select it as a webcam source, then whatever you have set the Manycam software to stream will be shown. </p>
  
  <p>I'm not asking for the answer. As I said, I'm after a challenge. I'm specifically after how is this achieved and where can I begin to research this? I've been digging through Google and have only found information on screen recording, which I have covered.</p>
  
  <p>Thank you!</p>
