The Common Camera Config

All common camera configs are held in /home/obs/cameras/camctrl on the control machines (royac16 - royac19). The easiest way to create a new common config file is to edit an existing one. An example can be found in appendix A.

Settings for all cameras are found under the set{ tag, while settings for individual cameras appear under the camera{ tag. In the example there are two cameras defined. The most logical grouping is to put all cameras behind the same chopper in the same config file. They will then all be synchronised and displayed on the same control computer.

The next step is to set up individual camera configs.
