FEATURE REQUESTS AND SUGGESTIONS / Switch of camera when minimize SplitCam
I've posted this problem in the technical forum, but maybe I better should have posted this in the feature requests.

So, this is my question:

When I use SplitCam as a virtual webcam driver for e.g. MS-Teams, the webcam should turn of when I minimize SplitCam. Only when a video call in MS-Teams is active through the virtual webcam driver, the webcam should be turned on by SplitCam and when the video call is ended in MS-Teams, the webcam should be turned off by SplitCam.
This is the same behaviour you can find at e.g. ManyCam and is superb when using a virtual webcam driver.
Currently, when SplitCam is minimized, a meaningless popup comes up that must be closed everytime.  And the webcam is staying active until I physically closes SplitCam.

Please, can you implement this behaviour in a next version?

SPLITCAM TECH SUPPORT / Camera stays on when virtual device not in use?
I recently discovered Splitcam and I’m very impressed.  I tried SplitCam as a virtual video device for use in MS-Teams and this works perfectly.

Only thing I wonder is that the webcam is activated continuously, even when SplitCam is minimized and there is no video activity in MS-Teams.  I know from other virtual video devices I tried in the past (like e.g. ManyCam) that, when minimized, the camera is not activated. Only when a video call is ongoing in MS-Teams the virtual video device switches on the camera.  When the video call is stopped, the camera goes off also.

When using SplitCam as a virtual device, I must manually launch SplitCam every time I start a MS-Teams video call and I have to manually shut down SplitCam when the video call is over.  Otherwise the camera stays on all day.

Am I missing some setting, or is this behavior not possible with SplitCam?
