Starred!

I’ve been playing with hooking up a MIDI controller to my OBSBot Tail Air PTZ camera and OBS.

The config and filters and triggers looks similar to my prototypes.

I’ve been wondering if there’s any sort of prior art or standards here from other domains like lighting consoles or workflow systems.

Thank you so much.

If I understand your prior-art question, I think there is a few: - the OSC protocol for audio gear and some other studio equipment. - In the lighting world I heard DMX is king - OBS has a very extensive Websocket client

For PTZ cameras I'm not sure, our old PTZ camera needs HTTP GET-s to weird urls (RPC).

Thanks again for starring!
