I am trying to use my M50 Mark I as a webcam with my Mac, and having no luck.
It worked over a year ago, though it would freeze pretty consistently.*
I am returning after a long time not using it.
I have downloaded and installed everything Canon seems to suggest.
It still does not work.
I have so many questions, my head is spinning.
Is Canon Utility a replacement for Webcam Utility?
Is the M50 Mark I even compatible anymore with the Canon Webcam Utility?
Any help massively appreciated.
*Specifically, I have the M50 set up behind a teleprompter, using Duet and my iPad to create the experience of eye contact in webcam interviews. None of this should interfere with the camera, though, I don't think.

Greetings,
You cannot run the EOS Utility and the WebCam Utilitiy simultaneously. You need to exit the EOS Utility in order for the WebCam Utility to function properly.
