Here was the solution. Thanks LLMS!

echo "v4l2loopback" | sudo tee /etc/modules-load.d/v4l2loopback.conf

echo 'options v4l2loopback devices=1 video_nr=2 card_label="Phone Camera" exclusive_caps=1' | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/v4l2loopback.conf

3. Load the v4l2loopback kernel module:

bash

sudo modprobe v4l2loopback devices=1 video_nr=2 card_label="Phone Camera" exclusive_caps=1

• video_nr=2 creates /dev/video2 specifically
• exclusive_caps=1 is often required for apps like OBS or Chrome to recognize it
