Hello,

We would use BlackMagic cameras on PTZ support with vMix.

We believe taking a PTZ head of this type ( http://www.optovision.fr/-Tourelles-.html MP-110 or MT-315) for movements, rotations.
For the zoom controls, focus ... we want to use the Blackmagic Design 3G-SDI Arduino Shield.

Do vMix might recognize this PTZ head? And will it be possible to send the zoom controls, focus on the Arduino?

Thank you. Cordially.

Vincent LEVEQUE

If the PTZ head supports network control it might work.

I have no experience with this device, but looking at the specs it could possibly work. However, I doubt that it would be plug and play. Anyone else care to weigh in?

It won't work at this moment.
I gave Martin a dev board of a similar device at IBC to see if he could implement support for this.

Check these different products.
When using tcp, even wifi would be an option.
