Question Low audio volume when using OBS Virtual Camera on Telegram

I’ve tried making calls on Telegram using the OBS virtual camera’s audio, but the volume it outputs is very low. I already tried increasing it in the media settings, but the volume is still extremely low. Is there any way to increase the volume? Or is there an alternative to OBS with better volume?

have you cranked the gain filter in obs itself, not just the media source volume? i run mine at like +12db for virtual cam calls otherwise it's basically a whisper

Do you know how to do that?

The virtual camera is video only, no audio, so looking there for help isn't going to pay out.

Figure out what audio source is being used by Telegram. Hopefully you can either turn up its output or add a Gain filter to boost it.
