Having trouble connecting Canon 50 to live stream

[jordancamera88]

Hi there. I am looking to connect my Canon m50 camera to my computer so I can live stream on Streamyard and/or Zoom. 

For some reason my MacBook Pro computer won't connect to the camera. I see the screen below.

I have installed the Canon Web Utility Drive from the company's website. I also have restarted my computer. 

Things I have tried:

• Connected the camera to my computer by connecting one end of an HDMI cord plugged to the camera, the other end into a -> HD Capture Card into -> USB converter > to my MacBook Pro (Monterey) 
  
  
• Connected the camera to my computer with a standard USBC cord.

None of these methods seemed to work.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! I can't figure out what to do. 

This is the error I see:

This is what I see. I'm wondering if it's the cable that's not right.

I am confused. Above you said it was a "standard USB-C" cord, but the cable you linked to is USB-A.

I'm confused too 😂 

I'm not sure if the cord(s) I am using are sufficient. The Amazon link I posted earlier is what I was looking into getting based off some YouTube videos that talk about live streaming. 

Anyone know what cord I for sure need to use?

What ports do you have on your MBP?

[jordancamera88]

Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) I belive. 

I have a USB converter piece.

If the converter goes to USB-A - the square one, then that cord from amazon is what you need.

Thanks for the reply!! I purchased this today and it arrives tomorrow. I’ll let you all know if this did the trick or not.

I have an update! It was indeed the USB cable. I bought [Removed link per forum guidelines] and it instantly worked! 

Thank you everyone for weighing in. I really appreciate it. Happy holidays!

Hi JoranCamera88,

The link has been removed and I need to know which cable it is as I am the same problem with M50 and Monterey
