Can I use my Nikon d5300 to use as a webcam in a 16:9 ratio?

Post by benj1248 » Fri Jun 22, 2018 8:02 am

So I've done a lot of research but apparently not enough. I got DigiCamControl 2 to pick up my nikon, I got a plugin to get it directly into OBS (my streaming software) but the aspect ratio is that of a picture. I tried setting the camera into movie mode but then when I plugged it in with the usb cord it said it couldn't load the camera with the current configuration.

Is there any way that I can use my Nikon d5300 as a webcam in a 16:9 aspect ratio? It is for streaming live music and the black bars are somewhat annoying. I can set the resolution to 1920x1080 in the Movie Mode settings on the camera itself, but cannot get this aspect ratio to come up on Live view at all. Does anyone have any advice? Is this even possible?
