    Yes, you would just connect your DSLR camera to your computer as a webcam. Canon has a tool for this actually: https://www.usa.canon.com/internet/portal/us/home/support/self-help-center/eos-webcam-utility you made need to lookup a tutorial on how to set this part up.

    After that, you just set your snap camera input as that DSLR's webcam feed.

    Hey Brandon, thanks for the reply,

     

    Actually, yes, but no! heh. I use this Canon to be able to capture me in the best quality possible, several apps/software doesn't recognize the Canon using the EOS Utility tools... So when I start the snap camera, my camera isn't listed there...

    if you have any other idea I'm up to try :)

    Thanks again for your help!

    Does OBS recognize the EOS tool? https://obsproject.com/ if so you could use the virtual camera addon/feature in OBS with a feed of the canon and then run the obs virtual cam into snap camera
