Present the Live composition in a separate window or send it to another app as a virtual camera.

In: Animation

Open the inspector

Open Canvas Output from the right toolbar. Choose Switch to Live if needed.

Open the output window

Enable Output window. Move the window to your display or projector, then use its fullscreen control.

Hide the editor canvas

Enable Hide editor canvas to hide the editor preview while output continues. The rest of the editor stays available.

Set the rate and overlay

Adjust the frame-rate limit. Output overlay offers Off, FPS, or Detailed.

Set up the virtual camera

Use Install camera in the Virtual camera section and follow the platform setup controls. Then enable Camera output and select madphase in Zoom, OBS, or another camera app.

Route audio separately

The virtual camera sends video. Choose the microphone or audio source in the receiving app.

Stop output

Turn output off or close the output window. Leaving Live or closing the project stops output. Closing only the inspector leaves output running.
