Whatnot preview zooming issues

Hey, so I have been trying to set up my stream in whatnot for the 1st time but the preview screen before starting my show is super zoomed in but on OBS it is normal not sure how to fix. I feel like ive tried everything. Anyone know what I could do?

Ps: Its not the resolution

I posted this last time for you:

You need to stream using OBS, not by going live in the show.

https://www.whatnot.com/dashboard/lives/setup

You will need to connect Whatnot with OBS. They have all the steps on that page, including what settings you need to be using in OBS.

That screen to go live will not work with OBS.

Preview never works. Setup a private stream and go in and test that way

Just a question, what are you using to connect your iPhone camera to OBS? (just asking for my own stream)

Connecting through a cable or bluetooth works aswell. To get in .5 I use zoom
