PDPeople,<br><br>I'm looking at the specs for a Sony PTZ cam which uses Sony's ViSCA protocol. The manual gives the commands for communicating with the cam, but I'm not sure if it would work with an existing Pd external or not. The control machine will be running OSX so a USB-RS232 adapter would figure into the equation. I know very little about serial port programming and need a little help determining if the cam is an option or not.<br>
<br>Cam manual (pp 19-37):<br><a href="http://bssc.sel.sony.com/BroadcastandBusiness/docs/manuals/evihd1_tm.pdf">http://bssc.sel.sony.com/BroadcastandBusiness/docs/manuals/evihd1_tm.pdf</a><br><br>There is also an open source libVISCA for dealing with this, but I would rather make abstractions around existing externals than code up a new one.<br>
<br>Thanks<br>Chris<br>
