PTZ Controls

PTZ Controls 0.18.2

Reviews 4.29 star(s) 32 reviews

I seem to be having an issue with either my system or the hardware. I try to add a VISCA camera and it crashes the OBS System. I installed the latest version and it still crashes. Any suggestions would be helpful. I have tried using another PTZ controller app and and my CISCO Tandberg TTC8-02 does not respond. I order a remote to see if it will control the PTZ. Any help would be appreciated.

The current release doesn't work on OBS Studio 30.0.x or later due to the Qt library version changing. I'm working on a new stable release. In the mean time you can go to the download page and give one of the unstable prereleases a try
I can’t think of any other way I can manage our setup with 4 ptz cameras without this plugin. Only reason for less than a five rating is because currently VISCA serial is not working with two HuddleCam HD connected via usb in OBS 29 and above. Had to downgrade to OBS 28.1.1 because this plugin is important for me.

Thanks for the review! As I'm sure you've read above, I'm working on a new release that will work with current OBS Studio. Can you please give it a try and report back how it is working for you? You can find the binaries on the GitHub releases page.
***The speed slider has been removed entirely and the speed of movements starts small, and ramps up the longer the button is held down. This behaviour appears to be more user-friendly, but I would like to have feedback on how it is working.***
Review: The intention was good. However, I liked the previous speed control better. It seems more practical to me. Perhaps it would be interesting to leave both options available, to be chosen in the settings.

***The other big change is in how a PTZ device is associated with an OBS source. ***
Review: This is great! Excelent idea.

Thanks for the review.

The speed slider has been added back in another form. In the settings dialog there is a per-camera setting on the maximum Pan/Tilt, Zoom and Focus speeds. You can use that to limit the maximum speed that a camera will move. I'm still working on improving the UI, but I hope that will be a functional first step.
I'm not sure where the problem lies but I think it is with this plugin. OBS minimizes and you can't open it and when you open OBS again it says the program is already running and asks if you want to launch it again. OBS appears in the minimized tray and then disappears and you can only close it by going into the task manager tray. Otherwise its a great plugin. Wish instructions for connecting an NDI camera clearer.

Thanks for the feedback @pastorb633. I haven't encountered that problem before. Can you file an issue report on the GitHub page, and attach a copy of the OBS log file? https://github.com/glikely/obs-ptz/issues
