In Zoom, Microsoft Teams, OBS etc, including GoPro Hero 4 Silver & Black, Hero 5 Black, Hero 6 Black, Hero 2018, Hero 7 Black, Hero 8 Black and Hero 9 Black.

Only the latest GoPro's have a dedicated webcam mode but in this video I’ll demonstrate three methods that between them let you use almost any GoPro as a webcam, even models released over 6 years ago.

If you have an older model you’ll need a USB video capture card but the good news is these have come down in price - I’ll be using one I got for less than $10 and comparing it against one from Elgato costing almost 20 times the price!
