It would be nice to have a shortcut/trigger based on PTZ camera movement being complete. Use case: I click a button my stream deck that selects Camera 1 (Camera 2 is currently live), moves it to it's new location and zoom level, then automatically transitions to love when the movement is done. This should be possible as the common Visca commands include the ability to query the PTZ position. vMix know where it sent the camera, so it just needs to poll (say every 100 milliseconds) to see when the camera gets there.

im not against the idea but as a work around, couldnt you test the maximum time it takes for the camera to reposition with the longest pan/zoom.. Then write a script that selects the camera, waits that time and then does the transition ? the only shortfall with static delay is if the camera was in a location where it could reposition quicker you would still have to wait the fixed delay time.. if timing isnt critical i think it would achieve the same result..
