Virtual Cam not working on 5.1.1, iOS 16.4 and MacOS 13.3

  • UDP is set up with correct IP and :0, phone is on the same wifi, static endpoints are set

  • Live Link, Remote Session, VirtualCamera and Apple ARkit are enabled

  • Unreal Remote 2 and Live Link VCAM are fully updated

The phone apps never connect. VCam spits out “Couldn’t connect to server” (or “connection refused”!) immediatelly, UnRemote just sites there “connecting”. AFAIK there should be a popup requesting access to LAN, but there is none, nor in the System Settings.

I had this working before, it’s not the first time I try. Any tips? Thanks!

Hey there, were you ever able to figure this out? I’m a Mac user as well and I can’t find any documentation on if VCam is supported on Mac. I haven’t been able to get the app connected either, and don’t know how to troubleshoot the issue, or if VCam is a feature that is currently Windows-only.
