# Webcams
Webcams are video cameras which are designed to be used with a computer for
streaming, video calls or similar usages.
This section lists and explains software for the handling of webcams under a
Linux operating system.
## Editing Video Stream
The editing of a video stream provided by a webcam can be achieved by using
[OBS](/wiki/obs.md) together with the
[OBS Virtual Camera plugin](/wiki/obs.md#virtual-camera).
## Configure the Webcam
A webcam can be configured with [guvcview](https://guvcview.sourceforge.net/).
This program provides a simple interface for capturing and viewing video from a
[v4l2](./v4l2.md) device and is thus dependent on v4l2.
Additionally guvcview provides an interface to configure various webcam settins
and enable a few effects on top of it.
