    So I have a 4 screen set up.

    I need to plug an android TV box into one of the monitors) but also be able to include that monitor on a zoom call.

    any ideas?

    I would guess you could use a game capture card similar to those used by PC gamers to stream on YouTube or Twitch.

    Elgato are the biggest brand in that game but there are cheaper options but in general these devices have gone the way of webcams and price gouging or substandard 3rd party knock offs abound on ebay / amazon

    Something you can try for free: if your computer is powerful enough, try Bluestacks, the Android emulator. If it can run whatever app you need to run, then you don't need any hardware, not even the android TV box.

    Ended up using an Elgato streaming device with OBS software
