    Hi all, I hope you can help me.
    I currently use a Canon M50 via USB and the webcam utility to stream the Sunday services for my church every Sunday. It works great, however, I can only get 720p quality on the online stream and can't go any higher. The streaming software I'm using is OBS if that helps.

    I would rather not have to use clean HDMI for the stream because it gets very confusing for people who have to set up, and the overhead projector already occupies the HDMI port on the laptop.

    Is there anything that can be done about this? I would like to download the videos and use them for content on social media afterward, but the quality isn't up to par.

    Any help will be appreciated, thanks!

    Demi

    Demi, may I suggest you put your question to Johnsey as he is well versed in this area of photography.
